Barack Obama, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and a host of other left wing activists were so strong in their condemnation of George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin. They called it a "hate crime." They proclaimed that "justice" needed to be served. They said Trayvon died because of his race. So... regarding the truly senseless killing of Chris Lane, where is all the outrage now?
Australian Chris Lane was a college student in America. He will never see graduation day. Lane was gunned down by three teenagers who were "bored" and decided to kill someone.
Not only was this a targeted attack, not self defense as in the Zimmerman case, but it was also was perpetrated by three teenagers against a white student. And there's more... one of the suspects, James Francis Edwards, has a twitter page where his anti-white feelings are clearly evident. This is obviously a "hate crime," right? The media should be descending on this case with zeal, right? Not so fast.
The so-called civil rights leaders are silent. Barack Obama is silent. The media are silent. What is going on here?
When two police officers arrested Obama's Harvard professor friend, who is black, Obama immediately denounced the action and suggested there was a racial motive. Obama called for a "dialogue on race" and other meaningless gestures. When Trayvon Martin, who is black, attacked George Zimmerman, Obama said nothing about the attack, but came out against the death of Martin, and once again, suggested that race was involved.
Now, we have a clear case of racial hatred and murder. Yet all we are getting is silence. Why aren't James Francis Edwards, Chancey Luna, and Michael Jones receiving the same outrage as Zimmerman?
The Daily Caller reports on the tweets of Edwards:
Edwards' social media activities are still on stark display and show the teen glorifying hip-hop, violence and sex. Pictures on Facebook also show Edwards and Luna wearing gang colors and flashing gang signs.
A couple of Tweets also suggest that Edwards wasn't fond of white people.
On April 29, he tweeted, "90% of white ppl are nasty. #HATE THEM."
On July 15, days after the George Zimmerman verdict, Edwards tweeted "Ayeee I knocced out 5 woods since Zimmerman court!:) lol shit ima keep sleepin shit! #ayeeee."
"Woods" is a derogatory term for white people.
Here's a report from Fox News:
(Video at Link)
At the beginning of the report, Rush Limbaugh asks a very important question: Why does the left protect racism? Think about that one for a moment, because it's true. The left's selective outrage on racial violence is sickening. They don't want equality. In fact, Obama and others go out of there way to promote a culture in which certain groups get a free pass to do whatever they want to do.
As reported by the Washington Post, Jesse Jackson tweeted about the Chris Lane murdered and wrote that this kind of "senseless violence" should be "frowned upon." That's right... that's what he wrote.
Did Jackson express outrage? Did he call for a national conversation on race? Nope. He just said that such things should be "frowned upon." As one respondent to Jackson's tweet posted: "Not picking up your dog's poop at a public park is #FrownedUpon Jesse Jackson."
This is the level of "outrage" we can expect from Jackson and others. Of all the people in America, people like Jackson, Obama, and Sharpton should be the most vocal. This culture of violence has got to stop. It should not be condoned, much less supported by the sound of their silence.
Add David Santucci to this tragic list. Murdered this past week in Memphis.

The Democrats War on White People
It’s happening all around us.
Crickets.
This could very well trigger a revolt down the road.
White crackers should have a spokesman using exactly the same language that O and the pro-Trayvon crowd used, speaking about Chris Lane, the ‘war on whites,’ how ‘this country has never been fair,’ and etc. Maybe even Al’s words inviting retribution.
Just using their exact words. I’d like to see the fallout on that.
The rage? It’s right there alongside the WH’s rage at how the MB rebels are burning Christian villages and killing Christians in Egypt...
In other words, there is no condemnation and there will be no condemnation.
Having said that, I expect in a couple days, maybe over the Sunday news cycle we will hear (via mouthpiece) that the WH strongly condemns the killing of Christians in Egypt,,,because the backlash of not speaking about it will have made it to the OFA minions and thru the pipeline to the King. Of course then it will be too late for the daily lackey grunt to bring his red pen to the podium.
Sickening
Perhaps "Senseless misdirected youth activity"?
And according to Sharpton - the system worked regarding Lane.
9 arrested after late-night attacks in Bloomington, ILLINOIS
AP , Associated Press
Aug. 23, 2013 7:05 AM ET
BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (AP) — Authorities in Bloomington say they’ve arrested nine people, including seven juveniles, for a series of attacks on city streets.
The arrests follow altercations that prompted police in Bloomington to warn residents to avoid walking alone at night in the central Illinois community. All the victims were asked for money and were either punched or hit with a pipe by a group of young men.
The attacks occurred between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.
The teenagers, along with one 20-year-old, are facing a series of charges including robbery, aggravated battery, mob action and theft. Those charged include a 13-year-old, a 14-year-old and three 15-year-olds.
BPD spokeswoman Sara Mayer says despite the arrests, officers are continuing to work to prevent late-night assaults and robberies.

“The Democrats War on White People”
What a great campaign ad. That would drive the left apoplectic.
I don’t understand why there has not been any demands to enact “flashlight control” laws. It’s obvious that if these kids did not have access to these dangerous assault flashlights they would never have beaten a man to death with them.
How about the little old white lady, 90 plus years along with her 60 year old daughter decide to visit the old neighborhood in NYC, only to beaten, thrown down a flight of stairs and robbed by a black punk. White folks better start wising up as this country follows in south Africa’s footsteps.
Why would we expect any commentary from the usual suspects? There were no blacks killed by whites here. That’s all they care about and foolish white guilt allows them to get away with it. Thug blacks are becoming more emboldened by the lack of reprisal. When it finally cuts loose it will be very ugly.
Spokane Police release surveillance photos of persons of interest in the homicide of an 88 year old man, occurring in N. Spokane last night. Anyone with information about either of the suspects is asked to call Crime Check at 456-2233. On 08-21-13 around 8:15pm Spokane Police responded to Eagles Lodge, 6410 N Lidgerwood on a call of an assault.
