My goodness what is America coming to?

I don't have the disdain for Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton that some do, but if they don't take a firm stand on this one, they need to be put out to grass.
If the situations were reversed and it was two white youths attacking a Tuskegee airman, I hate to say it, but Republican types would be pretty outraged (whole respect for the military thing), but in this situation, I'm predicting poor actions and mediocre words. |

Yes, it's always so hard to find a motive when young black men murder white people. Maybe the sun was just in their eyes. |

What stand, that violence is bad? I don't particarly think highly of the two men, but everyone calling on them to take a stand is missing the point that these cases are unambiguous. If/when caught, these people will be arrested and imprisioned. The previous time these people took a stand it was with a specific goal in mind, a conviction. That goal is already assured in that case. |

Well I certainly see the pointvthat the Trayvon case was about the establishment shielding a muderer and not pursuibg further, I cant help but conclude that if races were reversed, even with tge 'white community' condemning it, that Rev Al and JJ would make a bigger stink. |

Black on white crime gets no media coverage.
White on black crime happens and it's a national outrage. This is the way America works.
Speaking of JJ and AS why aren't they putting a stand against all of the violence going on in Chicago right now? |

Of course they would, just like if the situation was reversed Titus wouldn't have posted it here, same goes for right wing media and commentators. You'd be better off ignoring all of them on both sides rather than trying to score some kind of points each time something like this happens. |

You've jumped from trolling to loony conspiracy theory now, Rails. How was having a trial with a jury "the establishment shielding a murderer"?

No?
Event down the street from me in the NY Daily News. Also was in the NY Post (along with local DC news).
And it is a familiar topic on local news blogs here in DC. I realize that might not constitute media coverage, but it does get some coverage. As gentrification continues to happen in places like DC, it will continue to get more and more coverage. |

Also, aren't these two most recent attacks by blacks on whites receiving media attention, therefore your hypothesis is flawed at best, correct? As to Sharpton and Jackson not taking a stand about violence in Chicago half a minute of google proves otherwise.

I'm not going to come out and call ipayincash a racist, but that was three unfounded racist assumptions in one post. |

These two are. It's been gaining speed. White people are FINALLY talking about black violence without the obligatory references to poverty and slavery and guilt. The media will try to frame and reframe and distract but it is a lost cause. Over time our hearts will empty, our opinions will harden, our guilt will diminish. It is wonderful. Every disgusting "random" black murder pushes more whites towards racial solidarity. |

Titus, while I agree with you that in the face danger it is stupid to ignore the racial motivations of those attacking you, I still feel that the racial solidarity thing holds no appeal. I still want to live in a star trek society. At this point though I would want it to be a heavily armed star trek society where people help each other out when the cancerous tendrils of inner city madness spreads out from the core of these dilapidated hell zones. The current practices of multi culti are crazy, but the ideal is still attractive. Maybe the difference in our thinking is that I ended up getting married with an Asian person and having mixed kids. At that point you really do go all in on the idea of a star trek society. |

As this quote so aptly demonstrates, advocates of multiculturalism and 'diversity' are often little better than religious devotees, with a worldview based on ignoring facts, reason, and logic in favor of blind faith. |

As opposed to those advocating the opposite, who are mostly comprised of disinterested observers of the human condition? 5 minutes reading comments underneath articles online will show disabuse you of the notion that the majority of people on either side of the issue are that interested in facts, other than the carefully selected ones they repeat over and over, reason, and especially logic. |

More 'randomness.'
Trayvon Martin revenge killing in Memphis covered up? Victim’s family question police account
Less than two weeks ago, a 27-year-old white male was gunned down in the street by three black males in what police called a “failed robbery.”
Now, David Santucci’s family is speaking out, saying he could be the victim of a hate crime.
Mr. Santucci’s brother-in-law, Miguel De Diago, has his doubts this murder was a failed robbery.
“The first and foremost question in De Diago’s mind: If this was a robbery, why did his brother-in-law still have his wallet, car keys, and cell phone? Nothing was taken from him. And witnesses confirm that,” the Blaze reported.
The family source told the Blaze that he tracked one of the alleged shooters, Mario Patterson, through his Facebook account, which no longer exists.
“He said the page had numerous photos of Trayvon Martin, and he wondered if it’s possible the shooting was a revenge killing for the Zimmerman verdict,” the report said.

Imagine three whites murdering a black for no reason and the police immediately calling it a 'robbery gone wrong' despite evidence to the contrary. |
