Main Stream Media Quickly Moves On From Police Officer Killing After Learning It Didn’t Fit into Their Agenda


It has been shocking how quickly Leftists and media outlets moved the discussion to gun control once they learned of the identity of the suspect in Friday’s attack on the U.S. Capitol Police since it didn’t fit into their narrative that “white supremacy” was the reason behind the attack.

It was reported that 25-year-old Noah Green rammed two U.S.Capitol Police officers before getting out of his vehicle with a knife. He was then shot and killed by police. Green was an African-American man who was a follower of Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam. A police officer, Billy Evans, lost their lives in this attack.

Noah Green’s Facebook page described himself as a “follower of Farrakhan.” The page has been deleted since.  From The Daily Wire from their report:

Long posts detailed Green’s life struggles and religious views, which include his belief that Farrakhan is Jesus. “I am currently now unemployed after I left my job partly due to afflictions, but ultimately, in search of a spiritual journey,” he wrote in part.

“I haven’t had much to lean on in the past few months,” Green continued. “I’ve been faced with fear, hunger, loss of wealth, and diminution of fruit. My faith is one of the only things that has been able to carry me through these times and my faith is centered on the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan as Jesus, the Messiah, the final divine reminder in our midst.”

Green went on to describe Farrakhan as his “spiritual father,” without whose guidance he would have “been unable to continue.”

He signed his post as Noah X.

Numerous Twitter keyboard warriors rushed to blame the attack on a white supporter of former President Donald Trump.

Once the suspect’s identity was released, many high-profile figures pivoted from their initial posts on Twitter. They then rebranded Green’s attack on the U.S. Capitol Police officers in support of gun control or the existence of alleged systemic racism.

“Heartbroken to learn another CP was killed while protecting the Capitol,” tweeted Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). “My thoughts and prayers go out to the officer’s family and the entire Capitol Police force.”

“The death toll would have been worse if the assailant had an AR-15 instead of a knife,” she added in a bizarre attempt to push for gun control.

Talbert Swan tweeted, “I see the white supremacists are overjoyed to report that the suspect in the Capitol incident was a Black man, Noah Green.”

“Green, allegedly armed with a knife, was shot dead,” he continued, “By contrast, Robert Aaron Long, the Atlanta spa murderer, was armed with a AR 15. He’s alive and well.”

The same tactic was used by the Left after a shooting at a grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, which left 10 people dead, including a police officer.
