I have a better headline.

Man who was arrested sues city of Valdosta, Georgia and Valdosta police department for excessive force and injury

There... I got rid of the loaded wording and mentioning of specific race in the title to anger people. Problem fixed.

You know why race has nothing do do with the story? I'll tell you why... through examples...

Wrongly arrested fat man sues a Georgia city and police officers for excessive force and injury - CNN

Wrongly arrested tall man sues a Georgia city and police officers for excessive force and injury - CNN

Wrongly arrested smart man sues a Georgia city and police officers for excessive force and injury - CNN

Wrongly arrested Jewish man sues a Georgia city and police officers for excessive force and injury - CNN

I could literally go on and on and make the title to how I want it just by changing 1 single word... Now how evil is that? Race has nothing to do with the story. You shouldn't gravitate people to a story just because it mentions "black". Bring them to a story because it's a story. If they don't care about the story then don't bother with trying to change the title up to anger people. It's evil. News is evil. I don't watch it for a reason.

Wouldn't it be great if that headline just said "wrongfully convicted man"? I thought by this time that's how the world would be. I was wrong.
Haven't you ever noticed, whenever the subject is white, that is when the headline just says "man". It has been that way for years.

No one was trying to anger people. And yes, I would have shared this if he was a white man. Haven't you noticed that we can go from one extreme to next?

This article did not say anything about cops being racist or anything about racist at all. And yet, people would get mad about this article? Wouldn't be great if people didn't assume to know someone else's motivations? But we do.

I am not part of any protest. I am not part of any extreme groups. I am not going around assuming that cops are racist. I am not assuming that white people have privilege. I did not share it simply because the man was black. I shared it because I was hoping Christians would pray about this situation.

Sorry. I did not mean to upset anyone. But I am unaware of that.

Well, maybe they should change the title. It would make people less angry.

The media is intentionally pitted black against white and white against black. They have been all my life and I am 48 years old. This is an attack on America to bring us into socialism. If anything awesome of President Trump to point that out all the time.

They have been doing it that way for years. It is only now that some people are noticing it.

Thank you :)

That was actually informative. I mean, what you said about socialism.

I should have listened a little bit better instead of going off on you just like I would like to be listened to.

I'm not upset. I was just looking forward to a color blind future where everyone is seen for their good works

Definitely an agenda being pushed.

Maybe. But it has been that way for as long as I can remember, and I am in my 6th decade.

When the media pushes only one side people will start to believe that is the only problem. When they constantly mention only blacks being killed by police we get what's going on now. I know people that believe unarmed whites have never been killed by police. The first thing they say is that if that was true we would have seen it on the news or I've never heard of a white person being killed by police. The media is a powerful tool.
