Two armed and dangerous home invasion suspects are at large in our community, and media sources have chosen to protect them, rather than provide their descriptions. Similar crimes have occurred, close to each other, and just days apart, where the suspects were described to police, and the descriptions match. But even with this extreme danger in our community, the story isn't even being reported by some sources. And others deliberately omit the description of the perpetrators, which is a powerful tool in getting them off our streets. We should be provided with every tool available so that we know what to watch out for. But the media clearly has an agenda that is more important than our safety. Perhaps laws need to be created to prevent the media from exercising this level of dishonesty when our community faces this kind of threat.
