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

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.

Black On Black Murders and Shootings in Chicago-- Part 2: A Very Bloody 4th of July Weekend

Last month, July, 578 people were shot in the city -- at least 58 of them juveniles, including a 9-year-old black boy killed by gunfire Friday (July 31) night as he played outside on the Near North Side of the city.  July's youngest shooting victim was a 3-year-old black girl who was struck while riding in her family's car in South Shore.

A day before that, the city saw the largest mass shooting in recent memory when 15 black people were shot outside a funeral home in Gresham on the South Side.

The month opened with a bloody Fourth of July weekend that saw 79 people shot across the city, 5 of them fatally.

Eleven of those victims were minors, and two of them -- 13-year-old Amaria Jones and 7-year-old Natalia Wallace -- were killed.

Again, most of the killed and wounded have been Blacks.  And they were shot or killed by other Blacks.

Meanwhile, BLM and their white minions were having their own violent riot with police at the Christopher Columbus statue, which they demand to be taken down.  Some eighteen police were injured by them.  (By the way, the statue was taken down.)

All the while, their fellow Blacks were shooting and killing each other.  Exactly how important are Black lives to an organization named Black Lives Matter?

Where's the Anger?-- Part 2

Some more Chicago headlines.

**   July 31--  9-year-old boy dies after being shot in Chicago's Near North side.  (Site of the former Cabrini-Green housing complex.)

One 8-year-old shot Thursday (July 30.   In 2020 so far, 14 under the age of 18 have died.  Four of them were 10 or younger.)

**  July 31--  13 shot Thursday in Chicago, including a teenager and 8-year-old boy and a 10-month-old girl critically wounded in shooting on Chicago freeway.

This refers to Blacks.

And, we just finished another weekend, when the heaviest assaults begin.  Wonder how many black children were wounded or killed?  How many Blackswere wounded or killed?  And the real sad thing about this is that the police aren't doing this (nor or any Confederate statues).  These people are being shot by other Blacks.

There was a very good column in the August 2, 2020, Chicago Sun-Times "When will black lives matter to us all?" by John W. Fountain.  He makes some good points.

Where's the Anger?-- Part 1

Headlines from newspapers in Chicago.

February 17:  11 children among 26 people shot during single weekend of gun violence in Chicago.  (And this was during the winter.  It gets mighty cold in Chicago to be out and about.))

June 21:  Over 50 people shot, 8 killed in violent Chicago weekend.

June 28:  Black Lives Matter:  18 killed in Chicago over the weekend.

June 29:  5 black children murdered this month that Black Lives Matter will never mention.

June 29:  3  children shot dead, another 2 wounded in the crossfire over just one week in Chicago.

July 1:  7 children killed in shootings in last two weeks.

July 9:  When black children are killed, where's the outrage from the White and Woke?  (The White and Woke are those white people you see marching alongside the BLMers.  I call them white minions.)

*********************************

When race is not mentioned in these headlines, most of them were Blacks.

Wonder how many Blacks will be shot, wounded and killed by other Blacks this weekend.  How many black children will be wounded or killed.  One 9-year-old was killed on Friday.

You'd have to think Blacks would be more upset about these numbers than Confederate statues.

And Children?  Come On!!  Certain Folks need to get Their Priorities Straight.   --Old Secesh
