While all the facts aren't in yet, the preponderance of evidence points to a hate crime and voter intimidation


these fucks need to be caught, and locked up for a very long time.


Yep, lock him up for a long time

I'll never understand the obsession with burning one's own community in times of riot and distress.

gosh I hope you're this upset over the real ones that occur, but something tells me, well, no, you're not.

Because you would have posted this if you knew it was a black guy and not a white Trump supporter as you thought it was? No, you wouldn't have. Don't be a hypocrite. You did exactly what you're accusing him of. Just like all your topics, they're to put the right in a negative light, not the left.

I am also going with this option. If there are no facts, I guess we all have a chance at being right! Actually, the Podesta e-mails have indicated that this is in-line with the paths the DNC have chosen previously, so I think there is a slightly better chance this is the case.

Everything can be explained by conspiracy theory. That's a dandy.

It's the same thing in the same region that's been documented for 100 years. The fact that they luvs 'em some Donald is totally unsurprising. He's like Moses sent to lead them out of the Wilderness.

Are there any real ones? or just ones that haven't been disproven yet?
goddamn, that is one thick bubble

so what's an acceptable number for real ones? 5? 10? 30? I have no doubt that some were staged, and those people should be punished accordingly, but you behaving like they're all fake is sad, and telling.

OR. and stay with me here, we can wait until the investigation is complete. I don't disagree that this could be a setup for drumpf, but it could also be exactly what it looks like.

Seriously if it has any connection to, any connection at all to the Southern Poverty Law Center don't even try to list it as something believable. They have no credibility with me. Talk about fake news

How many have been verified as being committed by likely Trump supporters (e.g. non-minority)? No one is saying hate crimes never happen, they obviously do sometimes, but I can think of more cases of false flags when it comes to very public property crimes than legit cases. There is so much to gain by faking a hate crime: sympathy, attention, charity, insurance fraud, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if a majority of reported hate crimes are in fact fake.

You'd think after getting duped time and again the people and media would wait to see the results of an investigation and show some skepticism. In today's social media instant everything workd that's way too much to ask.

That's some pitiful shit, hope they throw the book at him.

Yes, not just for the crime itself, but also for making it that much harder to fight real crimes of this nature in the future. Just like false rape accusations, it does a ton of damage beyond the crime itself.

Yep another fake hate crime against Trump and the people that support him.

"The investigation is continuing, and officials have not revealed a possible motive.

An investigation continues, but a state official said authorities don’t believe politics was the reason for the fire.

We do not believe it was politically motivated. There may have been some efforts to make it appear politically motivated,” Mississippi Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney, who is also the state fire marshal, told The Associated Press.

My point stands, you wouldn't have posted it if you knew it was a black guy being charged with it. That's a fact. And exactly what you accused him of. Only posting if it goes one way.

Maybe the dude is innocent, guess we'll find out.

If you can't find the "race hatred" your team needs to start a race war - manufacture it.
...so many hoaxes from the "progressives" in the last month... bloody sickening.
