Obviously, this wasn't a white on black crime. Otherwise the media would have been all over it.

Two men suffered serious burns on Friday and remain in critical condition after a co-worker doused them with gasoline and lit them on fire, cops said.
Christopher Harrison Jr., 28, was charged with attempted first-degree murder and second-degree assault and is being held without bail, FOX 45 reported. A second person is “being sought” but not considered a suspect "at this time," according to Baltimore County Public Safety’s official Twitter account.
The media loves white on black crime and state it in just every about story...ie: a white man killed a black man.
Folks really need to retire this meme...
2015 study published in Communication Research, “Good Guys Are Still Always in White? Positive Change and Continued Misrepresentation of Race and Crime on Local Television News.”
Further, “whites were more likely to be depicted as homicide victims on local television news (35%) than to be victimized by homicide according to crime reports (13%)”; and “‘Others’ (e.g., Asians) were more likely to be portrayed as homicide victims on television news (18%) than to be victimized according to crime reports (4%).” - See more at: Racial bias and news media reporting: New research trends - Journalist's Resource Journalist's Resource

Fox seems to be a day late in reporting. It has been all over the media, get your head out of that Fox hole and look before speaking.
thousands of white on black, and black on white crimes occur every day that do not get brought up.
So? Ahhh you want to make it a race discussion.
Got it.
Can you post any recent news stories of white on black violence for me please? I'd really like to see these stories you speak of because from what I've seen year upon year, violent white on black crime of is VERY RARE in comparison to black on white crime.
If you want to disagree with me and dispute this, how about you post all the stories of recent non-black on black crime and I'll do the same for black on non-black crime and we'll see who can post more stories. Deal? I'm betting you won't take me up on my challenge because you already know you won't find many non-black on black crimes.

We're talking about black people here. Too many of them have very little to no impulse control which is why they have no problems with shooting or stabbing people they dislike on site anytime, anywhere without any regard for anyone or anything around them. That's why their crime and violence rates are so high, because words like 'self-control', 'anger control' and 'restraint' are completely foreign words to them.

Given how upset people get here sometimes.....politics
Seriously though, relationships, money, politics, or just smack talk bullying. That probably covers 9 out of 10 of these.
