racism kills
stop it
Signal boost or GTFO. NOW.
and this is why i hate the fucking internet
Along with this, Sunil (a different man) is innocent.
Ugh one of the downfalls of instant “news.” They jump to conclusions and make false accusations. I feel so bad for this guy. He does not deserve any of this!
The internet is a very damaging tool sometimes. Like those “funny” pictures or videos people take of people who are unaware they’re being photographed and then they’re out on the internet, humiliated. Like wow how fair is that shit?
But that’s nothing compared to people spreading that you’re a terrorist because reasons (?!?!!?!) That boy has every reason to be afraid because many idiots believe rumors instantly and there’s people who will act on based rumor. I normally don’t reblog things that don’t pertain to my fandoms however I feel compassion for this boy being fucked over by a rumor like this.

Warren Andrews had just finished putting up balloons for his stepdaughter’s 18th birthday party at their suburban home in Mayflower, Arkansas, when his wife came inside and said something was wrong. After stepping out of his house, and taking one glance, he immediately dialed 911.
“I don’t know what’s going on, but I’ve got a river of oil coming down the street at me,” Andrews told the operator. Five minutes later, the slick of noxious black crude spewing from a ruptured Exxon Mobil pipeline was eight feet wide, six inches deep and growing fast.
In this photo, spilled oil from Exxon pipeline runs through a neighborhood in Mayflower, Arkansas on March 29, 2013. Reuters was recently given access to the photo from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Exxon is refusing to let reporters anywhere near the accident. They’re also controlling the airspace above the spill. They don’t want you to see what’s happening. TOO BAD, EXXON.
Signal boost the shit outta this, y’all.

Dakarai Molokomme, a 15-year-old starving child from a small village in Zimbabwe, has just told Madonna, one of the most famous pop stars in the world, to go and f*** herself, the local media are reporting exclusively.
“Yes, it’s true, I told Madonna to go f*** herself. Do you want to know why?” Dakarai asked. “It’s the same thing every time with these snobby rich Americans. Every once in a while they come to show us their support for the so-called eradication of poverty by adopting a child from a starving family, but they actually do more harm than good. Transracial international adoptions are part of the white savior industrial complex,” Dakarai explained.
In further discussions with journalists from the media, the kid stated that “none of the children here actually want to be taken away from their family and friends so they can be displayed as some kind of trophy in the homes of self-righteous singers or actors who want to score some points with the media and Oprah.”
“If they really want to help us, they should get Big Pharma to ship us some anti-retroviral drugs for the AIDS epidemic, or build schools and hospitals. If they don’t want to do that, then they can all go f** themselves!” the child told reporters.
The 15-year-old also stated that he would say the same thing to any one of those American or European “faux humanitarian posers”, except for Bono, whom he said he would also kick in the groin.
“Bono’s efforts to save the African savage from itself prove that the colonial imperative is alive and well,” Dakarai said as he walked with other village children collecting sticks to build a tree fort.
LMFAOOOOOOOO YES HAHAHA
that child is in it honey!
Yesssssss
GLORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
yessssssss!
Okay all of this is completely true and I’m glad someone said it but am I the only one thinking that this is a bit of a stretch coming from a 15 year old?
You know it just seems kind of wrong to me that this didn’t get any attention.
In China on the same day as the Sandy Hook shooting, 22 children and an elderly woman were stabbed outside a primary school. (full article here x)
I have seen a ton of posts about the Connecticut shooting, which is great. We need to show that this sort of thing is not okay. Yet I have not seen one post about this. It’s not okay for this sort of thing to happen in any part of the world, and it doesn’t help that the media sucks ass. They focus in on America, and when something bad happens to America, it get’s amplified. But in China? There’s some articles out there, but it goes unnoticed because terrible things like that happen frequently in other countries.
Sandy Hook was a tragedy, but can we maybe say a prayer for these injured little kids too?
Well, the thing is, China places a lot of censorship on its media and pretty much controls the flow of information between Chinese news agencies and their audiences. That’s why it takes quite a while to get news out from the country. Plus, with its history of restricting international journalists (even Hong Kong journalists who are technically “Chinese” citizens), it’s really hard to get on-the-site information as well.
Sandy Hook, on the other hand, gained lots more attention and was sensationalized because it was so much easier and faster to get information about the incident. There’s a lot more freedom in America.
This could be one reason why the media failed to report much about what happened in China.

Ugh you guys I was so confused for like ten seconds. Apparently I’ve forgotten how to read headlines.

Because our 24/7 news media can’t actually do journalism, CNN, MSNBC, FOX and others have all just helped ruin someone’s life because they posted headline pictures of the wrong fucking Ryan Lanza.
Facebook groups calling for his death have already been created. Apparently it’s now open season on anyone named Ryan Lanza. Share this so people stop having blood vengeance for whoever this guy is.
Holy crap.
I hope he actually does get a lawyer and sue the shit out of them, kid will be set for life.
Reblogging again because seriously.
This is stupid because the actual killer shot himself afterwards.
this news video seems to say that it wasn’t him
