Tim mocks the New York Post for putting a photo of "Mr. Fantastic," one of the only black members of the mostly white Gilbert goons, on its front page instead of any of the white suspects.
- New York Post puts the one Black guy from an affluent Arizona gang on the front page, ignoring the white members of the group.
- The Black suspect's name is Mr. Fantastic, which Tim says doesn't help the situation.
- Tim notes the gang attacks are more of a white thing than a Black thing, but the Post ran with the afro anyway.
- Reddit and Nextdoor are full of lurid theories about the gang, the parents allegedly in Costa Rica, and which kid is actually involved.
- One of the suspects' mothers showed up in threads claiming she doesn't even know him and demanding proof he killed anyone.
- Tim finds the weird mom energy on Reddit threads defending her son from murder charges genuinely funny and timing-appropriate.
