If I were a Muslim, They would call me a terrorist!

On the eve of July 20th 2012, in Colorado James Eagan Holmes walked in to the theatre during the screening of The Dark Knight Rises and started firing on the audience. Although many people managed to save their lives, 12 were killed and 58 injured in the incident. 

After the event when the shooter was recognized as a white American and a distinguished University graduate, the guns of the media were altogether down and no one from the media called him terrorist or extremist. 

The fact is that he really was an intelligent student, who showed no obvious signs of containing such madness. If he wasn't an illegal alien, or if he wasn’t a drug abusing gang member, is the media supposed to skew the facts in some false attempt at equality? And as I have asked before, how is this providing Holmes a more positive public image?

This biased attitude of the western media is not new and it shows the direction of the ideology behind the driving force of the international media as the terms terrorist and extremist are all reserved for Muslims, Arabs and Blacks.
