No what is racist is that you repost the same "facts" that were started by white power/skinhead groups. Let alone the whole where is Al shaprton or why was this not national news?

Per snopes?
"Subsequent reports have contradicted many of these details..."
Snopes

Considering there are facts in the snopes article that are contradicted by the medical examiner, I don't put much weight in the whole thing.

That doesn't address the underlying issue here. Do you or do you not agree, that if this were 4 white guys and a black couple, that this would not be national news?

Jesus are you really that dumb to fall for this white supremacists chain e-mail?


Here ya go...

"Using the Internet and e-mail, the white-supremacist groups began a campaign of complaints to and about the mainstream media's coverage."

""The DA's office is outraged they have tried to abuse the victims by using the death of loved ones for racist purposes," he said. "The things that are being seized on by these hate groups are things that never even happened.""


As already said things like this happen all the time. But people are usually smart enough to not fall for the white supremacists chain e-mails.
 
Fuck me. I hadn't heard anything about this. I'm from Chattanooga, go to UTC, and I didn't know anything like that happened in TN. Bastards.

EDIT: Shame on you, OP :|

Yep, question everything.

This is a problem with the internet. While it makes it much easier for exchange of legitimate information, it also makes it a LOT easier for exchange of propaganda, innuendo and outright falsehood.
 
it's so goddamn hard to be white i tells ya. we're losing the country!

it's gonna be amusing as the white population continues to shrink and shrink and the billybobs really start getting hysterical.

Says the guy who lives by ..... hmmmm... what.... oh that is right. NADA! Do not worry things will get better when you patch your inflatable girlfriend.

Damn you are pretty blind to the fact that what your are talking about is perpetualizing the problem.
 
granted, the OP is a chain email simply C&P. The motivations for the source are questionable. However the questions are valid.

If a black couple was victims of the same type of crime perpetrated by whites, there probably would be much more media coverage.

Look at the Duke rape case, the whole debacle that resulted in the "Beer Summit" at the White House (granted that probably would have never happened if the President had not opened his mouth) but the media initially ran with the story as a race issue, many in the media portrayed the Katrina debacle as a race issue, hell even the Mayor of NO made it a race thing, and then there is the Tawana Brawley, everyone jumped on the race bandwagon very early on.

So there is plenty of precedent set by both the black community and the media when it is a white on black crime, they both come out swinging and ask questions later.

Regardless of the embellishments of this case by groups or chain emails such as the OP, one has to ask...why does the media seem to offer such a lack of coverage in a case of black on white crime?

This story is 2 years old and yet when I first hears about it, I heard about it from here, virtually no coverage at all from any mainstream media, and I still have not heard anything about it except here.

Maybe it's the just the media as a whole, unless you are a serial killer, a small child, or a kidnap victim that resurfaces 18 years later it's just not news.


 
This is one the sickest most disturbing things I've ever read, and I dont give a shit what color the victims were. I dont believe in the death penalty but I would make an exception in this case.
