Either way, I don't think the killing was random. Either it's something racial or the girl was a bad girl hanging with the wrong crowd.
Word is most Black dudes don't care if 1 of their own's running around with a white lady; that's more a pissed off white supremacist thing, offing her.

Too; I think desert detroiter's right: this wasn't a random murder.

That I DON'T agree with: not all Black dudes are hood rats and some do treat their white ladies right.

All reasons why your ancestors left Europe.

Who said all? Statistically they are much more likely to be better off by not interracially dating. There's no upside to it.

Source? Most Europeans while many of them were not wealthy, were not starving, slaves or under constant civil war in Europe when they came to America.

Ummm...you'd be wrong.

Europe was rife with wars and poverty. Hell, they were butchering each other by the tens of millions as late as 1945. If I count the Balkans, as late as the 90's.

Slavery? No...not American chattel slavery, but slavery of a different kind. European immigrants to this country were at the very bottom of their societies. They couldn't afford land, weren't business owners, weren't esteemed members of trade guilds, and basically lived a brutal hand to mouth existence. They didn't give up their home countries because they were among the well off. They were dirt poor.

Starvation? No starving, huh? Ask the Irish about that. They'll sing a different tune.

The Africans that the Europeans found were not starving, not short on resources, didn't live in overcrowded conditions, weren't looking for a place to immigrate to, and although they certainly had wars, put up NOTHING close to the numbers dead in European wars.

There's a reason why Michael Medved calls Europe the "Continent of Death." There's a reason why the area between Russia and Germany is called "The Bloodlands." It's soaked with the blood of millions upon millions of Europeans.

So...now you know.

Europe was not poor. Those wars you're talking about were nations and Empires doing conquest of other nations. Not civil war.

Not all of them were. We still have poor in every nation, but Europeans were not starving 3rd worlders.

One famine at one time in one country is all of Europe lol?

What are you talking about? They are still dirt poor and near starving to this day despite aid. Africa never had anything.

Yep Europeans were terribly effective at warfare. But that has nothing to do with other societies being perpetually poor and civilly violent. Why is the rest of the world trying to get into Europe and America and away from where they're from?
