This is not an endorsement for Romney; I don't know anything about the guy except that he announced that he's running for President and that he's a Mormon--that's all the media is talking about at the mention of his name--his Mormonism.
Regarding the Utah mall shooting, I watched a segment on the off-duty policeman who helped in the situation. The shooters's name was briefly mentioned, and I thought it sounded foreign, so I began googling stories on the incident and found (after much searching) he was an 18-year-old Bosnian Muslim refugee. The mainstream media won't TOUCH this!
Any thoughts on this? Is it one of those cases, "it's ok to point out some groups, but it's "racial profiling" to point out others?

I'd like to point out to "g" who called me "horribly wrong" that the Glennwood Independent is NOT mainstream media. I am talking about mainstream media (CNN, ABC, CBS, etc) news' lack of coverage.

Associated Press is made up of thousands of local news agencies, some mainstream, some not...Glennwood Independent is NOT so wipe your butt with that, "g"

This is a very interesting question. Now what was a Bosnian Muslim Refugee doing in Utah. Hmmm! Could it be that he is there because Bill Clinton bombed the Hell out of his homeland and deposed his rightful tyrannical ruler? And who is the Liberal Media's darling? And whose wife is running for President?

uh... I searched on yahoo for utah shooting... first page...
an Associated Press story (that's a national media outlet, one of the largest in the world...)
has a story that discusses it and what the FBI is saying about it?
http://www.glenwoodindependent.com/article/20070214/FRONTPAGE/70214004
so... you're clearly horribly wrong... they not only touched it, but wrote a story about it...
EDIT: CAN YOU READ... THEY JUST PICKED IT UP FROM THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA... IT'S AN ASSOCIATED PRESS... THE AP IS THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA...
I stated this fairly clearly? it's clearly not a local story? do you know how the news works? do I need to explain it to you?
here's the SAME EXACT story on Yahoo news... it's AN INTERNATIONAL WEB SITE...

Just like with the Dutch Cartoons, they are afraid to print the truth.

Because they don't want to panic the public! Or they are more interested in the religious bashing? your guess is as good as mine? A mormon in office? That is as bad as a Muslim or Arnie Schwartzeneger former Nazi and he is not born here eh? Duh?

Liberals fear what they don't understand. Example religon.
Its also hilarous how when Obama announced it was non stop Obama this and Obama that, but Romney all negativity
