Val Demings Lost Her Weapon..So What!

Ok, so Val Demings has lost her service weapon, and the Orlando Sentinel wants to make a big deal out of it, with harsh editorials and vitriolic condemnation.  Who cares that the Chief lost her weapon?  What difference does it make within the scheme of things when you have unemployment in the double digits, a corrupt Expressway Authority, and local schools closing like retail outlets?

Of course, its unfortunate that Chief Demings has lost her weapon.  It’s even more unfortunate when a bankrupt, has-been media outlet tries to capitalize on it with its predictable racist undertones.

The editorial staff at the Orlando Sentinel mentioned a history of vandalized vehicles last year, suggesting that somehow, the Demings’ were reckless and irresponsible.  What they failed to mention was that those acts of vandalism were the result of Jerry Demings running for office.

Its amazing how the racist white-owned media in Orlando forget the little things in life.  Its funny how they fail to remember the exemplary job Jerry Demings did for Orange County, indeed, Central Florida, during the Hurricane Charlie devastation.  The pillar of reason, calm and leadership, Jerry Demings led Orange County to recovery, and kept things calm.

What someone needs to tell the Sentinel, the WFTV’s, and the other racist, white-owned media in Orlando, is that your days as a relevant source of news and information are numbered.  You are a bankrupt, crippled organization that can’t bring itself to just quietly go away.

You failed to warn the public about the housing bubble, almost dismissing it back in 2006.  My, my, the coffers were fat back then from the bloated real estate sections, pushing over priced, chintzy sub-divisions.  Even the Orlando Sentinel’s bigoted editorial board thought that you could sustain an economy based on that type of “growth”.

No, the big news here isn’t Val Demings, its rather that the Sentinel isn’t news at all.
