Where are these guys? Why aren't they shouting and fomenting and instigating? Oh, wait. That's right.

Really - this is just pathetic, that you would post this with the title you chose, and the questions you posed. The racism is beyond blatant.
You can probably find thousands of vid clips on YouTube that you believe prove your point [but they don't] and someone else can find thousands that show the opposite, and SO FREAKING WHAT?
It says a lot more about you than the people you think you're belittling.

One must forgive ignorance.

Oh yes, definitely.

Never ...

Yes, the racism on the part of those named is blatant. Reverse the races of the individuals and they would be screaming, just like several other areas. It is also pathetic, that some can't see the destructiveness of those who claim to be so clear and perfect.

But cheri didn't name anyone ...

... umm ... perhaps you should thank her ?

That's always the answer to what is indefensible: "Well, if the other side did it" as if that makes it ok. It does not, and never will.

You mentioned being blind to destructiveness [in the usual passive aggressive way], so here is some for- real destructiveness to think about:

It isn't if the other side did it, the "other side" has already done it, repeatedly, if by the "other side" you mean the guilty parties mentioned in the title. As for your example, those are just utter stupidity. Bottom line, the transparent and perfect ones are winners among the most racist and it's their own actions as well as lack of action that clinches their crown.

cheri1122 · Mar 19, 2015

So the other side has already done it - that's a defense? Two wrongs now make a right?

PS What you call "utter stupidity" is what black people call "everyday life as we know it in the USA" and it needs to stop.

LDB · Mar 19, 2015

I don't see two wrongs. I don't see anyone, much less the highest authority figures in the nation among others, creating racial upheaval and fomenting unrest over the Indianapolis incident. That's the point and the problem. People who should be doing everything they can to end racism are doing everything they can to maintain it.

Video shows brutal attack in Indianapolis park - NBC 26, Augusta-Aiken, Here for You

This video shows racism on display in living color: black racism. A white teenage girl and her little brother are attacked by a gang of black teenagers. Seeing this makes liberals uncomfortable, because we're supposed to see videos of opposite scenarios to feed our self loathing and white guilt. The bad thing about incidents like these is that they do happen all the time without much comment or mention on the local or national news. The good thing is that an arrest was made. Wonder if it will be prosecuted as a hate crime? Not likely.

But while we're on the subject of outrage, here's an update on a similar but more tragic situation that was discussed in a thread about a year ago. Twelve year old Autumn Pasquale was murdered by two black teenage thugs who wanted her bicycle. This was not prosecuted as a hate crime and older thug was allowed to cop a plea sentencing him to 17 years in prison for killing this innocent girl while it appears his brother will get off the hook. But you can go on the internet and find this kind of thing all the time. To quote a famous liberal, "What difference does it make?".

Justin Robinson Sentenced In Autumn Pasquale Murder

There is a disparity in how the incidents are reported and their intensity in the news.

Turtle · Mar 19, 2015

It doesn't appear that the incidents were racially motivated. The attackers and the the victims just happened to be of different races, but there's no evidence that racism played a part in either crime. The girl's incident apparently spilled over from an incident at school. Unless and until we know exactly what motivated the attack, it's utterly retarded to label it racism solely because the attacker is a different race than the victim. Scratch that, it's not utterly retarded, it's utterly racist.

Oh dear Mr. Beauregard such harsh words being bandied about are just too much for this southern belles virgin ears, I do declare.

If I'm not mistaken, I swear turtle just called someone an utterly retarded racist,l oh mercy me, I do declare.

muttly · Mar 19, 2015

Regarding the Autumn Pascuale murder, it doesn't appear it was racially motivated. The other incident in Indianapolis is still unclear. There was a comment from one of the individuals that mentioned the girls race, but it was ambiguous.

U all need a vacation....

LDB · Mar 19, 2015

It doesn't matter what the cause. If it were the other way around it would automatically be racially motivated and Al, et al, would be vociferously reporting it that way.
