These hate crimes were against white men so do you think the major media outlets will cover these stories? Yeah, you're right, not a chance!

Just imagine if the roles were reversed though. The media would go crazy and we would never hear the end of it. Agenda much?

Were they beating them just because they were white?

Or were they beating them because they wanted their cell phones and they wanted to pick on drunk people?

BTW, your link was on the Daily Mail, which is a major media outlet. So you just answered your own question.

It was also covered on a local Minneapolis TV station:

had the races been reversed here, the cellphone theft would merely be additional evidence of a ‘hate crime.’

How did you get a hate crime out of that.. seems to me it was a robbery and thrill seeking beat down.

Do you think any all crime against black people is a hate crime? doubt it.... so why would all crime against white people be a hate crime?

As tragic as it is, its probably not worth covering at the national level.

For the record, I'm not saying it wasn't a hate crime. But given what the article said, it sounded like this guy wasn't the first one they had picked on, which made me wonder who their other victims were?

Maybe if all their other victims were white, indeed they were picking on them just because they were white. Which would be a hate crime.

But if their other victims were various races, they might have just picked on this guy because he was a convenient target for them. And he happened to be white.

Essentially, more information would be needed.

Team Red needs to chill with the "hate crime" rhetoric.

Makes ya sound as emotional and illogical as your Marxist peers over on Team Blue.

They won’t cover them. It’s not politically correct.

They DID cover them. The OP's own link is major media coverage.
