I am officially retired from this forum (found a new home), so I won't be responding. However, I thought some of you would be interested in this story. Apparently, a Hispanic American was assaulted and killed by his white neighbor who threw racial slurs before shooting him.
I don't see how this ties into illegal immigration though. They said they had ill will for years. Ya it sounds racist, maybe on both sides but I don't get how it ties into this proposed law. This happens all over the Country and all races are guilty of this.
I guess we may never know EXACTLY what they were arguing about before this happened. It's a shame that it happened regardless of whether racism was involved or not. Unfortunately it does exist, and to the OP, there are MANY situations where crime (and hate crime) is targeted towards caucasians; however, should there be cries of racism over every single one of those as well or are we to ignore those situations?

It ties very much into immigration. They were arguing over SB 1070.
The man told the American citizen "*******, go home to Mexico!"
This is the attitude being made in Arizona right now.

So this happens, and you wnat to bring it to hate crimes about Caucasians?
Will this make the news as much as when Krentz got killed?
Will Brewer make a statement about this?
I like how in these situations, anti-illegals always come out with something like "we may never know", as if to close the matter. It's pretty hilarious. They don't have that same open ended attitude when an illegal is accused of a crime.

Needless to say: if those was out and out murder; the perp needs to be punished----------Anglo or Hispanic.

Enough with your absolutes. The authorities said they are still investigating. Perhaps it did have to do with race, but we don't know YET. I'm not saying it wasn't about race; however, we don't know exactly what they were arguing about or what fueled the argument to get it to the point where this white idiot shot his Latino neighbor. They had known each other for years. Speaking of Krentz, the situation of his killing was not given the amount of media time that you are making it out to be and has been largely ignored by pro-illegal supporters.
In reference to hate crimes against caucasians, they do exist, and people tend to largely ignore the fact that people of other races may harbor racism towards caucasians as well; however, you don't hear the race card constantly being pulled whenever a caucasian dies.
