THIS cowardly, potentially racially motiovated crime JUST happened. Guess what, if the President went on air and discussed EVERY senseless murder that occured, he's soon find that to be his fullt ime job. THEN you bozos would be all over him for not doing anything else. Im between screaming about how racist Obama is, take a breath once in while and try that hat on yourselves. You guys are just chomping at the bit to throw ANY racisim accusations at Obama for ONE REASON, and ONLY ONE REASON - you don't like him because he's black - THAT'S ALL. It fine. You are what you are - ignorant. No big deal. There are A LOT of you. But, fortunately for the rest of us, there are A LOT MORE of us. The days of a white dominated society are fading. You're scared, (terrified). It's understandable. But, there's nothing you can do about it.....
you don't like him because he's black -

I agree.
It would make things easier if our society were truly colorblind. The best way to get there is to start from the top. The politicians, news media and entertainment industry should all refuse to mention race.

There are racists out there. Some are violent. There are racists of all colors. The correct response is NOT to try to "match" a ridiculous race-circus that was the Zimmerman case, but to let it DIE OUT. Yes, there are racists. No, this is not world-shattering news. And people should stop trying to play the "Omg your people are more mean to my people than my people are to yours!" Are we collectively 10 years old?

The race card is a very powerful tool and people get crazy pissed if they think that white people can use it.

Well Hans, White people cannot use that card, in there lies the hypocrisy that many are getting tired of and it's finally starting to show. I know you get that, but some people don't.
People are finally growing the balls to call out the double standards. Good for them. I am one of them.
Where are my Goddamn extra points on a Civil Service test!? It's hard for me to get a job, I could benefit from those extra points that Minorities get!
What about a deduction in Tuition for going to University? I don't get that because my skin doesn't have enough melanin.
Oh,, and jobs, my employer doesn't get a tax credit for hiring me, so why should they hire me???
Double standard
And they are being Oppressed???
GTFO
