Because consuming their product and so enabling them is more important than finding another source of entertainment and thus hamstringing a lib agenda.

Haven’t had Cable/Dish for over 10 years. And I am far better for it.

Lotsa details lacking- we enjoy jumping to conclusions here at FR. If you jump fast and happen to get it right when the facts come out, you become prescient.

I have no clue what really happened.

If as described, there may have been an unreported motive for the invasion.

If I intimate an unsubstantiated hypothesisis, than I am no more than a speculator.

Well, they did provide one bit of damning commentary:

“The suspects were described as black males. “

Yes.

There is no objective journalism anymore. There is no longer any incentive to remain objective. Only exception would be the case of wheat-weaving or some such nonsense no one pays attention to.

You can’t make judgments after reading a pathetic writeup like that. Plus, it’s based on the first statements of traumatized family members who witnessed the killing.

48 hour rule on this story.

Indeed...you are no longer paying the salaries of Bill Maher, Rachel Maddow, Ed Schultz, and other communist filth. Hell...you aren't even paying Sean Hannity's salary.

And as a former LEO I can vouch for the fact based upon my personal experience that they commit the majority of violent crimes by a very LONG shot. If it’s a home invasion or armed robbery 99.9% of the time it will be black males. It something the black population will not admit even if you stack all of the reports on their desks to prove it to them. They will just say it’s because there are a lot more white cops and they are just targeting “us”. Excuse me ma’am but we don’t sit around at gas stations or houses waiting for black peeps to commit crimes we just answer all the calls that come in when victims and witnesses report them. I guess they are targeting black people too. You just can’t reason with them.

I smell a home invasion on a drug dealer. Very common. Commonly ends up with someone getting shot too.

The pubbies and the NRA should make an ad describing this incident to the public. You can bet this incident won’t be a focus of the MSM.

The suspects were described as black males.

Now there's a surprise! Not that the criminals were black males, but that the media actually reported the race of the criminals when they were black.

Please stop using the term “high-capacity magazine”. That is a anti-gun term. You fall into their trap when yo repeat that. ALL mags are “standard” if they fit the gun.

Also, “assault weapons” are modern sporting rifles, rifle, gun or pistol.

They are “defense weapons”, not assault weapons. 99.99% of defense-weapon owners never use it for assault, only use it for defense and target shooting. An assault weapon must have full-automatic capability, or it is just a defense weapon.

If he only had an AR 15 with a hi capacity magazine the world would be rid of two vermin and a little girl would have her dad.

I’ll never understand why people who live in these urban feral-playgrounds don’t have throughout their house a variety of weapons, including guns, knives, wasp spray, small aluminum baseball bats and so forth. Are they just high on “hopium”...hoping that nothing happens to them?

Bull crap! They are high-capacity magazines. Your PC version of things is a big a bag of puke as any liberal PC.
