This is all Obama's fault. Too many thugs think they now have special rights. Order needs to be restored.
The perp should be charged with attempted murder and not just 2nd degree battery.
I find your statement to be quite fallacious. This kind of behavior has been going on long before President Obama went into the White House. This behavior took place under former President Bush Jr, Clinton, Bush Sr. When my father lived in Milwaukee during the 60s, if you were Black and went to the "wrong" neighborhood, White gangs would beat you up. In parts of Los Angeles, Mexican gangs have basically been killing African-Americans for years, since before President Bush Jr was in office. Some African-Americans in Miami terrorized Haitians during the 1980s.
Where's Al Sharpton when Blacks get killed by other Blacks? Where was he when Mexican gangs were terrorizing and killing Black people? You make it seem like only Black people could be criminals.
...on a Sunday evening, at a Chevron station, because it absolutely has to independent of any influence over the last 200 years...
Well we didn't live 200 years ago. This is 2013. i'm asking you if you can name ONE example of white-on-black violence in one of YOUR white Baton Rouge neighborhoods.
Just one. If what you say is true, it shouldn't be that difficult.
Regardless of what news agency reported it, it happened. I wouldn't expect a news agency like CNN or MSNBC to report on it. They are only interested if the reverse was true, it seems. I guess that it would follow that this would be a "hate crime" as the perpetrators accused the victims of being in "the wrong neighborhood"? Only a citation. Hmmmm...if the reverse were true it would be all over the mainstream news. And NO you P.C.ers out there I am NOT being "racist" (oh how I HATE that term). I am simply pointing out the inconsistancies of how the news is reported across this country.

Maybe not in Baton Rouge, but I've been subjected to White-on-Black violence myself living where I did in suburban Atlanta.
What does he have to do with this? Duplicate thread.
