True, but you do know that this would be all over the media if the races were reversed.

Cause hes white. Don't blame the media, blame yourselves. If white people got as mad about blacks committing hate crimes as black people get about whites and now I guess hispanics that they can call white committing hate crimes, this would be all over the place. Outrage generates revenue.

So you're saying that the 20% of hate crimes prosecutions that are undertaken against black people are for crimes in which that black person attacked another black person? That seems odd to me (and by odd I mean completely incorrect).

No one has been apprehended. Many are even doubting the story is true, since the victim only sustained 1st degree burns highly unlikely given the scenario. The boy has also failed to identify the criminals, even though he claimed they go to this school. The boy who cried wolf, or who cried gasoline.

Tis something called "reverse" discrimination... thats why.

Reverse discrimination = blacks discriminating the whites.

PLUS... "Media" is "pro-black" NOT "pro-white" = another form of discrimination = "un"equal treatment of a certain race (which in this case is the whites by "media" & "blacks" & politically "parties").
Who dares bring on the lawsuit???
There really should be one against the media!!!!

And the blacks just let the media led them via their noses "willingly" while a leader (who is not made in USA, is reaping all their foolish mistakes)... game on!!!
Sheep wearing... Beer & drug goggles!

Mainly because this story has all the signs of being a hoax.

No such thing as "reverse discrimination". People kill me when they use that term (it's even worse than reverse racism). Discrimination is discrimination, period.

Why, because dousing someone with gasoline and lighting them causes more than 1st degree burns. How did that monk in Vietnam fare after he did the same thing? 1st degree burns?

And her murderer...
Horrible story, but it looks like the perp was caught and arrested. Crimes that get justice aren't usually reported.
