IED goes off outside NAACP building in Colorado, nobody hurt

[grumble]

[QUOTE=USATODAY]COLORADO SPRINGS — The FBI says agents are investigating whether the detonation of an improvised explosive device outside a building housing NAACP offices was an act of domestic terrorism.

No one was hurt in the Tuesday morning explosion, and the FBI said agents are investigating whether the NAACP offices were specifically targeted. The building also houses Mr G'S Hair Design Studios, and the explosion happened closer to the salon's end of the building, witnesses said. Colorado Springs is the state's second-largest city, and home to tens of thousands of active-duty and retired military.

"We are investigating all potential motives at this time and an act of domestic terrorism is certainly one possibility," said FBI spokeswoman Amy Sanders.[/QUOTE]

Christ what's with the sudden wave of terrorist attacks?

I know it's a busy news day with what's happening in France, but there has been an extremely conspicuous lack of coverage on this today. Active manhunt for a bomber on the loose? IEDs? You'd think if this happened anywhere else it would launch 24-hour coverage.

I guess if nobody's bleeding, it isn't worth the airtime to cover racially-motivated domestic terrorism.

Well yeah, how the fuck are we going to drum up more viewers and future stories about those dirty barbaric brown people if no innocent, sweet, angelic, non-brown people died? How are we going to justify another misguided war if we don't have anything to get outraged over?
