Usually when a black person kills a white person it is someone they do not know.

I'm not buying this. This kid is lying. I've been to Algood numerous times. Stuff like this doesn't happen there.

That kid got shot by someone he knows and he is either protecting them or is scared to tell them what really happened.

No way someone just drove by and shot him. Maybe if it was Gainesboro. Not in Algood.

In either case, the person who commits the crime would still receive a harsh sentence but you do understand what a "hate crime" is right?

Using your logic, all crimes are hate crimes and clearly you feel that there should be no such thing as a separate hate crime law. When it comes to something like attempted murder, hate crime or not, the criminal will most likely receive a harsh sentence if proven guilty. On the other hand if it's an act of vandalism and one is a childish prank (TP) and the other involves racial epithets (nooses, racial slurs, swastikas, etc) than the person that is doing it on the base of race, religion, sexual-orientation probably would receive a harsher sentence. I see no problem with that.
You have no problem with locking someone up for longer periods of time because of their thoughts?

Reminds me of the ThoughtPolice in 1984.

I dont see it happening in Gainesboro either, but definately not in Algood. For such a small predominately white rural town there are a lot of interracial couples and more cultural diversity than one would think.

He most likely got shot by another gang or other blacks, claiming it was evil white racist will put his mug on TV and a few dollars in his pocket, but the truth will ultimately come out. To my fellow Americans remember this, as our government spends billions to protect us from "terrorst" we are still much more likely to be killed or injured by a black male....


Bullspit!!! Most violent crimes against whites are commited by other whites not blacks. Despite what the media tells you, the majority of violent crimes agaist whites are intraracial not interracial.

That it not true. There have been cases of blacks being prosecuted for hate crimes when there is proof that the attack was committed on the basis of race, religion, gender, sexual-oreintation etc. This is not about crime in general and black on black crime is actually more common than black on white crime. When it comes to a crime committed because of race, whites do it more, according to the numbers.
