Since being fired from his cartooning job nearly two years ago, Rob McGrath has discovered he's unemployable, and has spent endless days doing nothing but watching TV and posting about it at the DUmp.
Normally a thread alleging evil intent by the gun lobby is safe at the DUmp, but not for Pedro. For some reason he's attracted a pack of admirers as energetic as nadin's bullies.

Anyone else curious about the media won't say HOW Mass teacher was "murdred?"
It's the dog not barking.
We're still dealing with yesterday's school shooting. Now we have another student "murdering" a teacher, but no news outlet is saying HOW the teacher was murdered. Was it yet another act of gun violence, or merely "a murder?" Hmmm. Protect the NRA?

1. So the city of Danvers is protecting the NRA? Really?
you are talking about a police chief being sued by a pro-gun organization. Did you even think before you posted?

2. Maybe there's a reason for that, you know.
I'm sure we'll find out, but, for whatever reason, the police aren't releasing the information at this time. I'm sure you can think of reasons why that might be the case.
Do you know the teacher? Are you related to the teacher? How does knowing or not knowing exactly how the teacher was killed affect you at this time?
Let's get the straight story from an award-wining journo:

4. Blame the cops
there are times, that due to investigation needs, the cops simply leave major details out.
Ferreting them out can be troubling and a Public Records Request takes on average three weeks.
Not everything is a conspiracy.
Oh and I forgot, since we are talking a minor there is a lot of info that won't be released. It is SOP
Oh and I see they released name and it was a stabbing. Will be charged as adult.

Hateful, crippled, addicted DUmmy cali calls Rob "stupid".
One wonders how long before she'll be right for a second time.

13. You live in an interesting world
where the media is about protecting the NRA particularly in MA. When I hear hoof beats I think horses not zebras.

23. Please act like a grown up. I didn't say that. I asked a question...
...based on everything I was NOT hearing on the news at the time. Just that the teacher was "murdered." Posts in this thread have indicated that it was a stabbing death. I'm sorry I have to rely on DU for actual news instead of the News. I'm also sorry so many people ride so many high horses.

24. Speaking of acting like a grown up
you should think like one. You just "asked a question?" Do you often go around asking questions that have no meaning? Why ask the ****ing question if you did not think an affirmative answer were possible?
Rob has a problem with grammar:

25. How did I not assume an affirmative answer "were" not possible?
Obviously, I hoped for an answer. Several people were able to provide information I had not otherwise heard, and that's why I look to DU when the mainstream news fails to provide.
Then there are the snarky replies from people riding high horses.

21. Be sure to stretch before you make leaps like that.
Details are often kept under wraps in ongoing investigation.
Besides, many reports said she was stabbed.
ETA: Nice post and run. I'd suggest shutting down this thread, but...
