The judge overseeing the case of three teens charged in the shooting death of an Australian baseball player has issued a gag order.

So can I assume this was done to give the "news" media an excuse to not report on this?

Why am I so cynical these days when it comes to government?

Trust me, your (dis)honor, everything about this matter, including the police response, already makes me gag.

Stupid people think the First Ammendment gives them the right to offend blacks by telling the truth.

“Please, your honor, everybody and their brother is asking me to explain why I wouldn’t call this a hate crime; you gotta protect me from the media.”

Radio show yesterday was reading off the Tweets made by mostly the shooter BEFORE the shooting.

Zero doubt this falls into the “hate crime” category, even though IMHO that’s a bunch of BS!

Gag order or not, the evidence is out there on the cloud, for all to see!

Since we the public are not part of the case, we could quote the little racist social media posts on giant billboards and signs around Duncan.

The judge is limited in who he is allowed to try to gag.

Clearly some new evidence of Black racism was found and must be censored.
