A family in the woods of Michigan conspiring to kill law enforcement officials is newsworthy, but apparently two of America's oldest and most notorious street gangs conspiring together to do the same in America's most populous city is not.
According to an article that ran in the New York Post about a week and a half ago "Bloods and Crips in a rough corner of Queens put their beef on ice to form a murderous, drug-pushing union that was caught on wiretaps plotting to use a sniper rifle to pick off beat cops from rooftops."
I suppose this isn't newsworthy because it doesn't fit neatly into the narrative that has been constructed by the media in lockstep with the current administration. Eugene Robinson stated in a Washington Post op-ed that "[f]or decades now, the most serious threat of domestic terrorism has come from the growing ranks of paranoid, anti-government hate groups that draw their inspiration, vocabulary and anger from the far right," in spite of the fact that street gangs, like the Bloods and the Crips, have been terrorizing American neighborhoods for over four decades.
An Internet search for major news outlets covering this story resulted in zero hits.
Indeed, a revolution is brewing in America. Contrary to what the left will have you believe, it is a peaceful revolution. It would appear that the current administration has taken regulatory czar Cass Sunstein's advice to "cognitively infiltrate" the opposition. In the words of Gandhi, "[f]irst they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win."

It's all sensationalism. People are Burned out on Crips and Bloods and they really just want to see these racist fucks who want to fuck shit up now. Hate to be that guy, but you gotta blame this on the editors and dicks at whatever low-level news directors for wanting the stories about Families wanting to kill cops together. They just want the stories like that, and the middle-american conservative area nuclear family who lives in an area with less than 5% of the locale being hispanic or black, these stories mean nothing to them because Crips and Bloods may as well be aliens to them. As far as I'm aware, anyway. I could be completely wrong, just looking for a somewhat rational counterargument.
