What's "absurd" about being angry that the media will sensationalize a non-racist story into a racist one (Trayvon Martin) while ignoring a truly racist one, like this one on the North Side? All we heard for weeks was what a horrible racist George Zimmerman was and how dare he chase and kill Trayvon Martin because he was black. That's not what happened at all. All the media did was stir up the uneducated masses into an angered frenzy as they rioted and protested all over the country, fueled by race-baiting social leaders. Now the shoe is on the other foot, and crickets are chirping. Why?
Doesn't surprise me than you are incapable of seeing your absurdness. You routinely fail to see the common denominator in most if not all your woes.

I'm not even sure what's more OMG, the picture or the Daily Mail thinking it was relevant to the story! LOL

Are you kidding me.... Racial discussions in the Pittsburgh forums are never calm.... its more the typical white vs. black rhetoric fest that always ensues with these topics.... That YAC always winds up locking.... we're not even discussing the crime itself. Close the thread.

Regardless of what the women likes or her style. Lets not forget she had a bottle thrown at her car and she got beaten for asking what the problem is AND was robbed of her purse that was IN her car. That could have been anyone of us.

You have lost touch what is it like in a small city. Read my post to you. You should understand what I wrote. This thread IS totally civil in every way. I have read nothing offensive at all. Just people learning what is going on.

The entire thread is about the beating and what surrounds it. What are you reading?
