Apparent "hate crime" in Seminole County, Florida

I agree that the protests should be about that, and that is what bothers me most about this case. I am also bothered, however, by those that see this case as STRICTLY about race.

Genuine Risk the champion for racial equality and you can look at her threads on racism in this subse...err wait. NVMD.

You give a f.uck about racial equality. Otherwise you wouldn't vote for Obama. Blacks are being locked up in record numbers. GTFO with your Faux Mother Teresa routine.

The "coverup", the "lack of investigation", is what the family were initially alleging was about race. The death of a black teenager wasn't seemingly as important for a thorough, deep investigation as the death of a white teen would have been investigated. And anybody who lives in the USA and denies that's true in many cultures in the south doesn't have a handle on our culture since the civil war.
