pretty horrible crimes are committed by blacks all the time. many which dwarf the crimes that are cherry picked by rabble rouser's like al sharpton. its like their inconvenient truth. like for instance that recent black woman that was kidnapped and raped by some white sickos. its bad sure, but it got a ton of press. Channon/Christopher Newsom rape/kidnapping murders was much worse and done by blacks, got little press.
I was gonna bring up the Channon Christian and Chris Newsome murders but you beat me to it...a truly evil event that I'm sure a lot of you have never heard of before.

Who HASN'T heard of those two? There was a widely circulated e-mail forward when it happened, and it was cross-posted to every message board on the Internet, including this one. It was also filled with inaccuracies to make the story seem more horrific than it really was. There was a clear agenda - they turned it into a story about the racist media ignoring stories with white victims and/or black perpetrators, even though that is the opposite of reality. Crimes with white victims are reported at a disproportionately high rate by the media (I'm sure we're all familiar with "missing [pretty] white woman syndrome") and crimes with black perpetrators are reported at a disproportionately high rate by the media. The premise of that chain e-mail was entirely false. The media does not try to hide black on white crime. They suckered you and a lot of other people into being more outraged about these two murders than about the other 16,000 murders that happen in this country every year.
There is still a lot of racial strife in this country, and white people are as much to blame as black people. I see a lot of angst and resentment toward black people in this thread and a lot of other threads here.
