and white on white isnt tragic? tell that to the dead white girl who was found in a mine shaft after she was murdered by her white husband the other day, yet you just focus on black on black as if whites arnt offing each other every day either.

thats why i dont take white conservatives on here seriously.

Of course it's tragic, the difference, when was the last time you see white folks protest a killing?

You have one of your frinds on here who who supports everything going on in the curent riots....how does that make you feel? Or do you support EVERYTHING going on? Even the other shootings...

I just don't like the fact that they seemingly wait for weekend the murder totals out of Chicago like movie executives gleefully wait for the weekend box office totals.

they dont care about black life, they gleefully post them to try and take shots at all blacks, to try and rub it in.

civilian murders dont affect communities like a government official who is supposed to protect the community gunning down an unarmed man, and then being quiet about it for a week.

one random white person killing another isnt going to affect me or you. cops gunning down people and handling it like this joke of a pd in missouri should be a wake up call to everybody.

i would hope you would challenge them instead of staying quiet like a sheep, and the majority of the protesters are doing it the right way.

its just the minority of the looters and rioters that are going about it the right way.

Only the protesters and you are calling it a joke.....would you rather have the cop killed in the street? Would that make you feel better? Justice, right....what happened to innocent until proven guilty?

Nope, you see white on black crime, nothing more nothing less....fact's or not...

It has everything to do with the OP considering the OP specifically mentions Chicago.

You specifically talk about the number of shootings in Chicago. Why the obsession? You realize Chicago is not the murder capital of the U.S., correct? So, why are you bringing up Chicago? Would you PREFER riots to break out all over the country & then you can start whining about Obama not sending Holder to any of those other cities?

If the issue is why is this murder getting attention and not others, that same question can be asked about any murder.

So it would just be more honest for those who have an issue with the attention this murder is getting to admit their problem.

Instead of pretending that they are upset that every murder doesn't get national attention.

Did the murder draw the attention at a national level, or did the riots bring this to national attention?


Huge difference.

What problem should people be admitting too?
