Note that the MSM reports the perp’s race when he is white but ignores it otherwise.

I cannot imagine any newspaper in the country publishing an article like this but with black and white switched. The title, "Black man threatens Virginia churchgoers, spews racial slurs", would never get published. The leading sentence, "Police arrested a black man who shouted racial slurs and threatened to kill white congregants gathered inside a church . . ." would never be considered. Honest people would use the same reporting style regardless of whether the facts support their agenda. This is Reuters, and there is no honesty at all in their writing.

And why is this? I believe it is because there is so much black on white violence that there is fear of backlash. Even worse, somebody on the internet might call them (gasp!) racist!
