The Kountry is Korona Krazy | the Aspen beat

"...Consider a trustafarian Aspen city council boy named Skippy (yes, that’s his real name). 
For a guy who’s never had a real job, Skippy is very busy. 
He’s organizing the protest thing in Aspen.
Skippy and his gentrified protesters of pallor don’t need to wear masks because even though they’ve never been to the wrong side of the tracks they’re on the right side of history.
What they’re protesting is white people killing black people. 
I don’t like people killing people, so that seems like a worthwhile protest.
But they aren’t protesting black people killing white people, which happens twice as often even though blacks are only 13% of the population. 
In fact, of all the mixed-race murders (black killing white, Hispanic killing black, white killing Hispanic and so on) the rarest category by far is white people killing black people.
And they aren’t protesting the non-mixed-race murders of blacks killing blacks, which happens 10-times more often than whites killing blacks. 
Black lives seem not to matter to these protesters if those black lives are ended by another black.
By the way, if you’re what used to be called a “journalist” reporting these facts in the now-extinct profession of “journalism,” you quickly wind up what used to be called an “ex-journalist.” 
You get cancelled...
Read all.
Lots here!
