Photographs are the selective edits in the news world. They capture only one moment. By now you've grown tired of the sight of that infamous image of the mounted border patrol officer grabbing the shirt of a Hatian invader. Yes I would call a white person an invader if he was coming across the border in a similar fashion. Let's not get mired in details that do not matter. Speaking of details that do not matter, the digital world went crazy over the possibility the border patrol agent used a whip on the poor innocent man from Haiti. I personally had conniption fits screaming that it didn't matter if it was a whip, a rein, a split-rein (which is both), or if the border patrol agent's favorite movie was Transformers. But everyone else was determined to be upset by the image.
Turns out the video provides context. No whip was used.

If anything, what was used a bit too excessively was the bit. I need my equestrian brothers and sisters in the western world to learn a little leg control. Might be hard in those saddles which are basically crotch boxes, but we can talk about that later.
What we now have is another liberal narrative given more context days later when it's too late. No whip was used. Will the border patrol be allowed theuse of their horses now? Probably not. It's the "seriousness of the charge" that matters most to the left. They got away with pushing through another false narrative based on a different false narrative that America should treat foreign invaders with kid gloves.
"Wait for the facts" will never get old. The problem is narratives can't thrive with facts.
