Heltered and Skeltered

All of these Godwin-rules have been completely unnecessary.

...the Drudge Report, which has conveniently rounded up a slew of run-of-the-mill summer crime stories that happen to involve black people and suggestively weaved them into a nationwide race riot.

Meanwhile...

Limbaugh: inaudible Whadda ya got riots and things happening out there with poets and other people. Long hot summer schedule, and I'm not sure that's not part of the grand plan. The more unrest and chaos there is out there the more the government will be called on to fix it.

Never-mind that the crime-rate is the lowest in forty-years, the fictional crime rate is on the rise, especially among a group that fits their stereotyping.

But who else does this sound like?

Oh, yeah:

To Manson, helter-skelter meant a war between whites and blacks that the Beatles [in the White Album] were in favor of... "The Beatles are telling it like it is! The s___ is coming down!"
