This is an email that is making the rounds today. I think that it is spot on.
Food For
Thought.
Subject: Where are Al Sharpton,
Jessie Jackson, and Obama on th...
A week
ago, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a black kid named Tyrone Woodfork severely beat an
elderly couple, a Mr. & Mrs. Strait, who had been married for 65 years.
Tyrone RAPED Mrs. Strait, and she died of injuries received at his
hands. Mr. Strait served in the 101st Airborne during WWII. NO national media
carried the story. Tyrone was arrested yesterday.
I supposed
that if Mr. Strait had shot Tyrone, the whole country would know
about the story. As it is, only Mrs. Strait died, so it's not of interest to
Brian Williams and the rest of the main stream media media.
Think about it. After 65 years of
marriage. After serving our country. After 90 years of life, Mr. Strait has lost
his wife to a rapist/murderer. NO ONE in the national media gives a flip.
They're interested in their wonderful hero, Trayvon Martin.
