If you look at the story there is mention about 'white priviledge'. There was a Black woman on TV talking about this and she justified it by saying that everyone knows this is true because there is white priviledge. I've never heard of this until recently and it's news to me. If there is, it must be because most whites don't break the law.

Iraq under the Hussain regime?

Panties twisted? Your choice in undergarments is your business. What set my teeth on edge was your one word answer to my question of "what kind of scum bag would attend such a celebration". Your answer was "Americans"; the implication was dripping with contempt. Maybe I'm over sensitive to the US bashing that seems to be so vogue today. It's bad enough coming from the third world ingrates we constantly send aid to but when it comes from our own, or worse yet from immigrants who make their living here it pisses me off. Maybe I'm old fashion but I say if you don't like it here leave! I know I wouldn't stay in a place that I thought was so evil.

As far as the "kill the White man" website goes Shock of shocks imagine there are blacks who act like white Klu Klux klan members. What is shocking is given the history of racism in this country that the black community isn't more hateful. One thing I know for sure is that all this stuff has nothing to do with the color of somebodies skin. It stems from a whole host of other factors. In the tough lilly white neighborhood I grew up in, a number of the guys in my neighborhood spent time in the pen for beating the hell out of a Green Beret and then gang raping his girlfriend.

Wow thats pretty good. It took only 34 posts to boil it down to "it's all whitey's fault". I was wondering how long it would take.

Stick him the a cell with Buba, he's going to be real sore.:D

Hitman.com, well the real one.

My point is that this behaviour is not race dependent.

Are you kidding..? A video game..?

You missed the most important thing in his post. A good part of what is described in the opening post is nobody's fault; it simply did not happen.

Here's what is known from court records and relatives:

On the night of Jan. 6, Christian and Newsom were leaving a Washington Pike apartment complex when gunmen confronted them. The pair, inside Christian's Toyota 4Runner, were taken to a rental house on Chipman Street near Interstate 40 and Cherry Street.

Both repeatedly were raped, according to authorities. Within a few hours, Newsom was shot, his body wrapped in bedding, set afire and dumped alongside nearby railroad tracks.

Christian remained alive for several more hours. She was raped and strangled, and her body was discarded in a trashcan, according to investigators.

All five suspects, including the four accused in the slayings, have given statements about the killings, most implicating each other. Authorities have amassed a mound of evidence, from fingerprints to DNA.

They have unearthed nothing to suggest Christian and Newsom were targeted because of their race, according to law enforcers.

"There's nothing whatsoever that indicates any hate crime," said John Gill, special counsel to Knox County District Attorney General Randy Nichols. "There are things that really, coincidentally, would prove just the opposite."

As is typical in this case, he would not elaborate.

Seems she kept her breast but was still raped and kept for 24 hours before being murdered. He was wrapped in 5 bags, not 5 separate bags. Then set ablaze.

I feel lots better now. This can't possibly be a hate crime.

Isn't any murder by definition a hate crime?

This isn't to say that there is any sense in specifically legislating "hate crimes". There isn't.

While it makes a snappy sound bite, no, murder is not "by definition" a hate crime.

Certainly some murders are, but just as certainly not all.

Somewhere, there awaits a white Toyota pick up truck.....
