Could the girl have been lying? Not a chance!! What about criminals putting cops lives in danger by resisting? Nah, that's totally okay to do, we're ignoring that. We just want to stir up the black people that can only see one side of things, because we know there's a lot of those, but we don't want to say that out loud. Downsides of illegal immigration? You'll have to go to looney bin Fox News for that, and we'll call you names when you do. In our world, there are no downsides to being tolerant and self-righteous.

People can only take so much of it. If the media wasn't lazy, they'd have sprinkled some of the opposing views in, but they've gotten too set in their ways. They'll become a parody of themselves over time. I just don't know how long that's going to be. Might be awhile. Even foreign countries, who think they're all smarter and more educated than we are, believe every single thing they see on TV about America. They don't even question it, they just think "yep, that's probably right, it is America after all." We have a long way to go I'm afraid.
