Kinda like the lack of "Innocent black men being gunned down by the police" stories since the 2016 election ended.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Newsflash, police have to use their guns once in awhile.

This link really didn't refute what I posted either.

Still in the news quite a bit, especially the officers being held to account.

No it's not, it used to be an almost weekly occurence on CNN's website for a solid year leading up to the 2016 election. They were interviewing parents and covering the protests in the streets, after the election, barely a mention.
