i'm interested to hear how Obama weighs in on this murder....

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Victim is the wrong skin color, he wasnt gay and he wasn't called a slut. No phone call will be made to the victims family.

No celebrities will tweet about it either.

[spoon]

Already wrong bc i have seen it all over the fucking place. Awful story not to be outdone with your stupidity.

[Dude!]

the two murdering nigs
and their mulatto accomplice
all look like they could be
obama's son (if he had one)

This will stay in the headlines for a couple of days, then fade into obscurity until the trial happens but it wont be 24/7 coverage.

One of the kids confessed, it would have to be 24/1. I have to imagine they'll all plead.


Not a lot of comparisons to zimmerman here, they were arrested right away, they'll be convicted and do time.

[SonOfSmeagol]

bored? random? Ha! the racist little fucks clearly targeted the white man. where's the outrage?

[WRESTLINGFAN]

It won't get the Zimmerman coverage because there's no money to be made for the networks

[realmenhatelife]

I do imagine the debates would be a little one sided as I believe it will be difficult to find people who are willing to argue that this was justifiable homicide.

[CountryBob]

bored? random? Ha! the racist little fucks clearly targeted the white man. where's the outrage?

I am curious to see what does happen. If the victim was black and the murderes white I do think that there would be a greater outrage as we have seen with other murders lately. Sad really because no matter the race a murder is murder and that's a terrible thing

If he did have a gun and was able to pull off a few shots all the race pimps and grievance groups would spew out vigilante justice and the angry mobs would disperse down to the scene

I beg to differ

Examples, Tawana Brawley, Duke LaCrosse, Crown Heights, Treyvon Martin .


Not sure where you're from but Sharpton has been a menace for at least 25 years. He might have lost weight and started wearing fancy suits but he's still an opportunist and a media whore

If trayvon martin was shot in the back prior to breaking zimmerman's nose I'm pretty sure they would have convicted on murder 2.

Who the fuck brings a gun when they go jogging. I can't even bring my phone without it driving me nuts banging against my leg.

Four examples in 30 years. This is an extremely serious case that outlines an increasing problem. Non-white racism should not be given a pass. I don't just mean racism against whites either. Almost every Asian person I know in NYC has encountered vile racism from different minority groups.

I think the media is actually taking a deeper look at this case, and racism is being discussed at length. Sadly, I predict that instead of this (finally) spawning an intelligent dialogue about race, the right echo chamber will instead scream that:
1. This news story is not being reported enough.
2. This somehow has anything to do with previous cases of white on black racism.

Both of these examples of already occurred in this thread, and on almost every comment section I've seen online.

I'm not a fan of "hate crime laws" or double jeopardy, but something like this would have been enough to get Zimmerman into a federal court after the verdict.

Those are major events and lives were affected. Stephen Pagones was raked thru the coals , Sharpton was never held accountable. I forgot to mention the Freddy's fashion mart incident in the 90's.
Also there is all the bully tactics and shakedowns over the years by the Rev.
People outside of NY see a more dignified looking remade Sharpton with his own show on a major news network

There will be no beatification like there is for Treyvon


Generally speaking there won't be large scale revenge attacks by whites . There might be some pricks on twitter who will post threats but I don't foresee them being carried out

I have never seen anyone on this board defend al sharpton for any reason. Are you looking for a debate about his character? Why do you see this issue so narrowly? Bringing up Al Sharpton is a gigantic diversion from discussing a real issue. He's a circus sideshow.

[spoon]

So is WF.

no they're not, since you bring it up

Oof !!!


I never got anyone killed

[spoon]

Your way of thinking kills brain cells by the millions daily.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

I'd call you a riot but it might get Sharpton jealous

[foodcourtdruide]

no they're not, since you bring it up



I have seen this as a main article on pretty much every news outlet I've visited today. Ron and Fez even did a break on it. People are talking about this story.

[spoon]

No no foody, wf says it isn't too so you have to be wrong. Yet it is all over the place and a truly sad story. Clealy piece of shit assholes that did this, so take note nobody is defending them but yet here we are arguing outrage.

[spoon]

I don't know why every story has to be put into the context of other stories. I think it really does a disservice that the Treyvon Martin case and the media's reaction to it is immediately referenced. It's so different.

Is it the reality show culture we're in now? Everything that happens is put into this weird ongoing narrative, though they are not linked at all.

[KnoxHarrington]

This is so fucked up that I'm really having trouble seeing a racial angle here. I just have a feeling that these scumbags were going to kill someone, and this guy just happened to be there. They would have just as readily killed a black person as a white person. It's just fucked up.

One of the kids had anti-white racist tweets prior to the murder.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

The tweets along with the execution of his plan is clearly racially motivated

[SonOfSmeagol]

hold those thoughts, next time the black man inevitably gets killed by the three whites

no racial angle here, of course
http://dailycaller.com/2013/08/21/black-teen-who-murdered-australian-jogger-posted-racist-tweets/

[spoon]

Obvious racial issues here, even the white kid of the group of murderers. Yet that doesn't mean other cases are any less an issue, better or worse. All need independent assessment, not lumping in and jumping on.

[Syd]

we're living in a post racial America, duh, even the SCOTUS said it. So what if some dude said 90% of white people are nasty, we have a black president.

[deliciousV]

hold those thoughts, next time the black man inevitably gets killed by the three whites

no racial angle here, of course

if that happens, we'll hear about it, and it will be under a banner of racism, for sure. My point was that the feds did everything they could, including setting up a hotline and a web page to find any proof that the Zimmerman case was racially motivated. Here we have plenty. Do you really believe the choice was totally random? That there was any chance these killers would have chosen a black man? Stop it, you predictable ass.

http://dailycaller.com/2013/08/21/black-teen-who-murdered-australian-jogger-posted-racist-tweets/

On July 15, days after the George Zimmerman verdict, Edwards tweeted “Ayeee I knocced out 5 woods since Zimmerman court!:) lol shit ima keep sleepin shit! #ayeeee.”
Ads by Google

“Woods” is a derogatory term for white people.

Poor Tiger.

[realmenhatelife]

Another reason why the hate crime talk is dumb here is these kids are charged with first degree murder and will probably be looking at really long sentances. Augmenting that time with hate crime penalties is a pretty empty gesture, at this point.



You dont hear a lot of people with the 'you're just outraged to be outraged talk' though. I guess white dudes get to be outraged bout whatevs.

[A.J.]

Never heard of woods. Honky, Cracker and White Boy are what I encountered.


I guess it's an age thing

[Dude!]

you'd think that "woods"
would be synonymous
with "oreo"
if the derivation was Tiger Woods

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Jesse Jackson weighed in that the murder is frowned upon

He's frowning because he can't make a buck on it

[A.J.]

Jesse Jackson weighed in that the murder is frowned upon

Maybe he should be spreading that message a little more strongly in his native Chicago.

Black on black crime doesn't make him richer

[spoon]

Again, he's not influential at all or once advocated for on this board. But keep bringing him and al into the convo as much as possible. What did david duke or dude! say about this? See how stupid that looks? Of course you don't.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Where have I ever said that you or anyone here endorse Jackson or Sharpton

Focus !!!

[spoon]

It's your stupid focus and insinuated often here. So yah, I'm plenty on top of your bullshit. Ooh a black was involved?! Let's go to the sharpton/jackson well of idiocy only outdone the other way by WF.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

2 blacks and a white were involved. One of them made hateful tweets

Besides that. Which group kills the most blacks ?

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Sharpton isn't relevant?

Maybe not on this board but look at his rallies. He's still drums up big crowds

Oo ooo, Obama? Or is this one still on Clinton?

No, he doesn't and his rallies aren't even fucking topical here at all. My point stands, you're a fucking idiot.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Tell me where I ever said you support Sharpton.


Yes, His rallies still get a lot of people. As long as there's money to be made for him, he gets the crowds

[spoon]

And no, the rallies are pathetic and he hardly does them now to be honest.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Yea nobody showed up for the numerous Treyvon ones. Those were all mannequins

[newport king]

Tell me where I ever said you support Sharpton.


Yes, His rallies still get a lot of people. As long as there's money to be made for him, he gets the crowds

Its because none of them have jobs to go to.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Barack was supposed to fix that

[spoon]

Of course that's his response.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Of course

They voted for him with a 90% margin twice and their rate is double the national

keep it going witch hunt fuck

[spoon]

bc u care less about the actual crime, victim or those doing the killings...it all boils down to your fucking racial based agenda

just bc some other idiots do it constantly, doesn't mean you do the opposite and then rip on THEM while doing it

[WRESTLINGFAN]

What if the roles were reversed and a couple of whites beat up a black WW II vet?


Use some logic dopey

Yah what if that thing that didn't happen happened?! What if...like u know? I mean come on mannnnnn.
