Probably not. 

A guy goes to a church, shoots and kills a woman in the parking lot, then goes inside and shoots several other people.

Not a peep.

Oh, he's black and people he shot were white.

Now tell me there is no media bias. 

I'm sick, literally sick about this BS...

I knew about it but only because you commented on FB about it.

 There may have been a short piece on it but I missed it. Point is I believe that it isn't making the headlines any other similar crime would be because the shooter wasn't white.

I saw something about it on facebook. But to be honest, I don't listen to the regular news anymore.

I've heard about it, but football kneelers were the major event that the news cared most about. Rest in peace to the young woman who died.

We have several members who are conceal carriers and two of them sit by the door to observe the parking lot. One is a sheriff and the other one is a doctor who is well trained. We started doing that when a Church not to far from us had a shooting and the Pastor was killed and someone threatened our own Pastor once.

Let's not forget, he was from Sudan and he wasn't a US citizen.

It's amazing, isn't it?

Less than a year ago a church shooting was in every news source and it jump started an effort to remove decades old memorials from every state in the nation.

But this one barely got a 3 inches of coverage.

I read in on the computer Goggle News. Agree that this was really played down/ignored by most media....

I hope there is a good reason this shooting wasn't widely reported. It's sad to think racism is the reason.

 I don't know if racism was the reason for the attack, but the lack of media attention is sure driven by race.

If it's about guns where was the call for gun control?
