By the Way, Not One Mention of Cannon Hinnant on BLM, NAACP and SPLC Sites

I went to the websites of all three of these black organizations to see what, if anything, they had to say about the tragic death of 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant in North Carolina several weeks ago.

BLM- Black Lives Matter
SPLC-  Southern Poverty Law Center

I figure that they would at least offer condolences to the young boy's family, but there was absolutely nothing.

I guess the life of a young white boy is not of importance to them.

But, let a black person get shot resisting police and they are all over it.

Shame on Them.  --Old Secesh

Chicago Cubs Player Jason Heyward Makes a Statement Over Racial Concerns

Jason Heyward believes Blacks in the United States are not being treated fairly.

He chose to sit out this past Wednesday's Cubs game to show his concern. 

Whatever the actual treatment of Blacks in this country is, this man certainly doesn't have much to complain about.  He has signed an eight-year contract with the Chicago Cubs for $184 million.  Not exactly chump change and mistreatment in my book.  He also got a $20 million signing bonus and has a base salary of $21 million, coming to a total of $23.5 million a year.

I just can't buy multimillionaire black athletes who talk about how bad it is to be Black in the United States.

Hopefully, the Cubs will dock him his salary for that game.  But, I know they won't.

Well, if Jason Heyward will sit out a game for black victims of the police, he will also sit out a game for the five-year-old boy, Cannon Hinnant, who was recently killed and whose death was all but ignored by the national media, something they sure don't do when a black man is killed by police.

Let's Be Fair, Jason.  --Old Secesh

Will the NBA, WNBA and Those MLB Players Who Boycotted Their Games Do the Same for Cannon Hinnant?

If they are so concerned about people's lives, surely they will take another day off to commemorate the short life of Cannon Hinnant.

Hey folks!!  All Lives Matter.  Not just Blacks.  Do you even know who Cannon Hinnant is?

And, it is especially sad when a five-year-old's life is cut short by an act of unspeakable evil.

Lets's Do What's Right.  Boycott.  --Old Secesh

I Couldn't Help But Notice a Difference in National and Local Media Coverage Between What Happened in Kenosha and What Happened to Cannon Hinnant

We must thank FaceBook and Twitter for keeping the word out for Cannon Hinnant since the national media, both TV and newspapers, ignored it.

What gives there?

Does the national media support BLM to the extent that the Democrats do?  Would publicity on Cannon Hinnat's death make BLM look bad?

Many of us already have BLM figured out.  A group that professes out front that they are upset about black people being shot by police (and I agree with that, way too many Blacks are injured or killed by police, though mostly when they refuse to do what the cops tell them to do), but what I keep seeing are riots, looting, arson, threats and hate crimes (in the form of attacks on Confederate statues) and really, really horrible obscene language.

This is what BLM means to me  and anyone supporting them seems to be okay with these other aspects of them.

So, it would appear the national media must be BLM.

Hey, NBA!! Go Ahead and Cancel the Season

I don't know, but when I see multi-millionaire black NBA basketball players telling about how hard it is to grow up Black in the United States, I just can't help but smile.  After all, they earn more in one year than I did in 33 years of teaching.  AND, I am a white person.  Tell me about how hard it is.

Yesterday, led by the Milwaukee Bucks, the black players canceled the playoffs because of what happened in Kenosha last Sunday.  And, they are talking about doing the same for today.  First off, the Bucks should be made to forfeit the game.  And, secondly, who really cares about the NBA.  Very, very few people around here are even watching it.  Who cares?

And, I did not hear a single black player expressing sorrow about the five-year-old white boy in Wilson, North Carolina, who was murdered by a black man.  Shot point blank in the head in front of the boy's 6 and 7-year-old sisters.   They seem to only care when a white person kills a black person.

So, go ahead NBA, cancel the season to show your grief about what happened to young Cannon Hinnant.  Have you even heard of Cannon Hinnant?

Does anybody who supports Black Lives Matter know what they actually sand for?   To me, BLM means rioting, looting, burning, confrontation and hate crimes against statues.  They remind me a lot of a group from Germany's history called the Brown Shirts.

Who Is Cannon Hinnant? Who Is George Floyd?

Go ask the next 100 people you meet these two questions.

Of the people I asked, three knew who Cannon Hinnant was.  Everyone knew who George Floyd was.  Of the people I asked, twenty-one more knew who Cannon Hinnant was when I mentioned that he was a five-year-old white boy shot point-blank in the head by a black man in North Carolina, but they didn't know his name.

There were still a whole lot of people who did not know who Cannon Hinnant was even with the extra information.

I myself did not know who Cannon Hinnant was until this past Friday and he was executed on Sunday, August 9.

Why is his death relegated to barely mentioned, if at all, on out national media, especially TV news and newspapers?  As far as I know, even the Chicago Tribune and Sun-Times had not mentioned it.  I'be been watching the news a lot and the only mention here in Chicago was a one-minute segment on the local Fox TV station.

Next time you see BLMers and heir white minions out demonstrating for George Floyd, you might want to mention Cannon Hinnant to them and see if they know who he is.

If you don't know much about Cannon Hinnant, do a search for his name on the internet and find out.  His picture is to the right of this.

Real Sad. Read Sad. See Sad.  --Old Sad Secesh

Hey!! BLM, NAACP, SPLC: All I Have to Say Is Cannon Hinnant

What do you have to say about Cannon Hinnant?
