Channon Christian, 21, and Christopher Newsom, 23​



Crime took place Jan. 6, 2007.



There was very little LSMSM news on this horrific crime, I will not post the details, you will have to go read about the torture deaths of these two fine looking young people.

If Christian and Newsom had been black, and they had been raped, tortured, and murdered by a group of white people, the victims’ names would be painfully seared into the national psyche by the media’s saturation coverage of the atrocities and their aftermath.

The reason the case attracted so little media attention was because Christian and Newsom were white.

Certainly their deaths were hatefully and racially motivated, yet there were no race hustling whores there to exploit them.

The common thread among all of these apples and oranges comparisons seems to be that the apple brought to the table is roundly seen as flat out rotten. There's no "other side" to this story. There's no controversy. Virtually, everyone who reads about this says, "Wow! That's horrific." There's no controversy here. It's awful. There's not another side.

One of the various things which made the martin zimmerman case interesting was that it had a certain amount of ambiguity. People could take sides. In a case like the one you're referencing, it's just horrible. There's no "other side" per se. There's just the shock and disgust.

imho anyway.

So I guess the murder of the white Hispanic 15 month old child by two black youths also falls under the same purview you offer?

Holy ****ing irony. I hope you really did intend this as Stephen Colbert type parody. If not, holy ****ing ****...

The only difference between the case above the the George Zimmerman trial was Zimmerman successfully fought back. Why that was controversial is beyond me, unless reverse racism is the motivation. The Zimmerman trial did prove one thing, no black man can ever be killed without race being assumed to be the primary issue.

l wish these psychos were executed

but what is the connection between two events
 
The main difference is that their rapists and murderers were apprehended, tried and found guilty. There was never a question that the two white kids would receive the best that the justice system had to offer. They received it, and now at least one of their murderers will die for his crime.

Trayvon Martin's killer is a free man. IMO Sharpton et al are right to scrutinize cases like his, and the proof is that Zimmerman did, in fact, get away with it.

Knoxville-area television stations and newspapers have covered the story heavily since the bodies were found. On the national media level, The Associated Press and MSNBC reported on the murders shortly after they occurred. But starting in April, a loud and growing throng of white supremacists began protesting what they call a conspiratorial media blackout, owing, they claim, to the fact that Newsom and Christian were white and their alleged killers black.

"We as White Nationalists cannot allow the Jewish media bosses to simply slip this story down the media hole," read one April 27 post on the racist online forum Stormfront. "Individuals of the White Race are being sacrificed on the altar of Political Correctness," added "Pastor Eli James" on another racist website.

Attempting to capitalize on the propaganda value of a gruesome crime, white supremacists have flooded the Internet and radio waves with false details concerning the purported sexual mutilation of the victims and held a rally in Knoxville to protest "black crime." Their lies — that the murders were a race-based attack and that the victims were horribly mutilated —are gaining traction. Without acknowledging the source, some mainstream conservative commentators in recent months have been parroting the key white supremacist talking point, characterizing the Christian-Newsom murders as a black-on-white "hate crime."

Killing of Knoxville, Tenn. Couple Exploited to Attack Blacks | Southern Poverty Law Center


Nice, it is wonderful how racists and white- supremacist lies and propaganda can work it's way into the public eye like this.

Mr. Vadum must be real proud to further the subversive and heinous work of the racist online forum Stormfront and it's idiot members.
 
^ Agreed.

Additionally, I find it sort of funny [by funny I mean ridiculous] how for many, many, many years black people were falsely accused of crimes, painted as evil, dangerous people, and basically were railroaded in the public eye. One vigilante idiot gets away with killing a kid and suddenly it's a conspiratorial persecution of ALL white people!!!!

ALARMING RHETORIC ftw! :eek:

I am not making judgments, just explaining what's happening.

You're welcome to you opinion, but what actually happened between TM and GZ is beside the point I am making. The point is that a significant number other people looked at it and saw the same narrative as you AND a significant number other people looked at it and saw a narrative much different than that.
That's not happening here. There is no large number of people looking at this and seeing anything but something heinous.

Why that was controversial is beyond me, unless reverse racism is the motivation.
Even though you cannot figure out how someone could see it differently than you do, you at least realize that quite a number of people saw it differently.
With this story, there's not a significant number of people who see this as anything but horrific. That's the difference.
This is unambiguously horrible and evil.
There's not a large group of people who're trying to stick up for these guys.
The Zimmerman trial did prove one thing, no black man can ever be killed without race being assumed to be the primary issue.
That's hyperbole.

Both crimes involved the death of people. One, the deaths of Christian and Newsome was a blatant hateful racial incident, the other the death of Trayvon Martin was self defense. In one case the racial crime was hidden and obfuscated. In the other racial hatred was fanned and incited by race hustling whores.

and those killers were convicted ?
 
A bit off subject but crimes like this are what the death penalty is for.

I agree with you. There are also laws about inciting racial hatred. Obviously Sharpton, Jackson and Farakhan feel that they are above the law on that count.

You miss the point, the crime wasn't about car jacking, or robbery, it was all about killing 'whitey'.

Right...and what's the difference? Had Zimmerman died from his wounds and Martin lived, the case would be no different than this. The difference is that Zimmerman fought back and lived and many people resent that. Their stated reason is race.

That's hyperbole.

The only reason there isn't a lash out is because the white people lost. Had they fought back and lived while their attackers died, I have a feeling Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson and Barrack Hussein Obama would be calling these two racist and claiming the black kid's civil rights were violated.

Yeah sure, killing whitey :roll:. This was a simple violent car jacking case, a horrendous case in which tragically people were murdered. But guess what, if every case in which people were killed horrendously was plastered all over the MSM than that would be the only thing they would be reporting on. This case was reported on heavily in the state it happened as most murder cases are.

If white supremacists at stormfront want to make this case into something it is not, then that is horrible too. The victims in this case now get shafted for the second time, first by being murdered (for which the perps are convicted) and then by the racist agenda people who try to use their tragic death for the white supremacist cause which is yet another tragedy.

I guess you're missing the point. This case was adjudicated several years ago. The point being made is simple and to the point. The race hustling whores of the Progressive Left cry havoc when there is a justifiable Self Defense case, like Martin/Zimmerman, yet shut up tighter than a clam when things Christian/Newsome, or Arnold/Whitehead incidents occur. I'm all for arresting the perpetrators of any and all racial hate crimes whether Black, White, Brown or Yellow. What I don't like is anyone that would incite people falsely to racial hatred when incidents happen.

I get it perfectly. The right wing racist crowd starts to whine about something that does not exist.

You know why this case did not get the attention it ought to have gotten? Because cases like this are a dime a dozen and happen in States all across the USA far too often to garner national TV attention to the level of the Zimmerman/Martin case. That case was unique enough to get MSM attention because it was weird and peculiar and absolutely not mundane.

What the whiny right wing racists seem to forget is:

- Casey Anthony
- Jerry Sandusky
- Laci Peterson
- Phil Spector
- Andrea Yates
- Jodi Arias
- Drew Peterson
- Joran van der Sloot
- James Holmes
- West Memphis Three
- Timothy McVey

And we cannot forget the documented Missing white woman syndrome Missing white woman syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia for which there are many examples (for example Natalee Holloway).

Criminal cases get TV and huge MSM attention if there is something odd about the case or something else that interests the public and a "mundane drive by shooting, car jacking murder case/ etc. etc." is not getting attention because it does not sell.

the other case was about following a black according to this racist logic

The same can be said for the professional race baiting whore hustlers that have exploited the death of Trayvon Martin.

No one has forgotten. Although one must consider that the evidence found in the investigation of the murders of Christian/Newsome was akin to the evidence collected in and found in al Qaeda torture rooms. Do you really believe this was a car jacking incident?
