    Coulter’s tweet criticized the media for, in her perception, shying away from immediately disclosing the racial identity of a shooter when that person is not a white male, the typical identity of mass shooters in the US. The idea is that, due to their liberal worldview, the mainstream media deny evidence that might confirm conservative fears of Islamic terrorism in the US.
Oh, that's what this is about. OK. I knew you were working some kind of right-wing bullshit angle but you were being so obtuse I couldn't suss it out.

Anne Coulter makes a tweet and you lot call it "Coulter's Law" as if that means anything. Come with credible evidence or fuck off to Reddit.

Come on now. This is a readily observable phenomenon; everyone notices it on both sides of the spectrum. It doesn't deserve your aggressive polemic.

From Wiktionary, "The observation that the longer it takes the media to identify a mass shooter in the United States, the less likely it is to be a white male."
