It makes no difference to me what color he is. A crime is a crime. I am not a racist and was not brought up that way. I'd still feel the same way if they were black or Hispanic. Commit a crime do the time. I would not be anymore upset than I already am if he wasn't white. BTW I am glad you find this incident amusing. I hope it never happens to you.

Yeah, that really annoys me. It's the same thing on the News 12 comment setions.

A young Hispanic woman was murdered in Huntington Station last year and a bunch of the comments on News 12 pointed fingers at illegals, then the suspect was caught a couple weeks later and it turned out to be white guy.

But to be fair, I don't think OP is racist.

So it bothers you when a thread takes on a racial tone and garners 100s of posts by racists and childish posters.
And it bothers you when a thread does not take on a racial tone and is discussed in an adult manner.

Dude, not a great way to live ones life, the glass is not always half empty.

Yes I always wanted to be on News12!
I just want to know how much I would have to monitor when I get one.

Now that I know where you live thanks to News 12, I'm coming over for dinner.
I like skirt steak, medium well. Maybe some mashed potatoes too. Oh, and chewy chocolate chip cookies for desert. Thanks.

Lubby..no need to defend yourself against these fools. Remember...when you stoop to argue with idiots they often beat you with experience.
