An Assassination Ignored by the Left.

Yesterday an Army recruiter was killed and another wounded in the ongoing war against domestic recruiting stations. This war is by the Left, and includes bombings and violent intimidations. But because it is a Leftist war, it is not covered in any meaningful way by the media. The media have been obsessing about murders of abortionists and have excluded for the most part the murder of the recruiter.

The same approach was taken when Matthew Shepard was killed by two druggies in a botched robbery. The killing was misconstrued, and still is, to be a crime of hatred against homosexuals. The media was virtually silent about the killing of 13 year old Jesse Dirkhising in 1999 , a straight, murdered by two homosexuals in Arkansas. As one editor put it, “there is nothing to be learned from this crime; the Shepard crime is a lesson”.

Nor is it likely that you heard of the following crime:

On November 21 [2008], William Smithson, 43, of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, was sentenced to life in prison for the September 2006 strangulation murder of 23-year-old Jason Shephard. Smithson, a homosexual, murdered Shephard after slipping him GHB, a date rape drug, then hid the body in the basement of his home.

The MSM is not in the business of informing, it is in the business of teaching in the sense of indoctrinating. It is so certain of its moral authority in doing so, that it cannot understand its massive fall in respect and readership.

It is fully expected that Obama will not express any emotion or concern regarding the death of the recruiter at the hands of a Muslim convert, nor will the MSM devote any significant time on the lengthy war by the Left against recruiters and recruiting stations. Watch and see.
