These Are People Not Props

I've been watching the reaction to the riots in Charlotte of the last two nights.  From some of what has been said in the mainstream media, you would think that these were get out the vote rallies rather than riots that led to death, injury and destruction of property.  It's offensive.  Angry people confront the police.  The coverage should focus on 1. what happened next and 2. what the rioters were upset about.  Instead, half the coverage has been about what effect this will all have on the November election and how this can be used to push voter turnout higher.  I know that some media people think everything is about politics, but they are wrong.  They are especially wrong with relation to the riots.  Even the MSM has to realize that it is just wrong to watch people get killed or maimed and to watch the owners of small stores have their life's work destroyed and to consider not the human impact, but rather the political impact.  These people should be ashamed.  You know who you are MSNBC.
