Guess they forgot about that...
oh, the horror!
Wrong skin color.
wrong color - ain’t no big deal regardless. One less cracker per our media and president
Call back when you’re black.
Haven’t you heard? White lives don’t matter.
#whiteboylivesdontmatter.
Self defense...Case closed...The fact that the kid was shot in the back and the side has no bearing on it...If only he'd just done what the police officer said...All the other reasons people give for justifying police shootings of unarmed citizens.
Because he was pigmentally challenged.
Oh, go to the article and look at the snarky race baiting going on there.
What can I say, Ben?
The “News” media somehow let this one slip between the cracks.
Obama will not be there to say “If I had a son...”
Al Sharpton will not show up there.
Soros will not send his team of “spontaneous” rioters there.
The US “Justice” dept will not arrive to do an extensive “investigation.”
TV networks will not continuously run a photo of the “unarmed teen” when he was 10 years old.
Duke University “professors” in ‘Justice’ and ‘Peace’ will not cite this when they appear as experts on NPR.
Obama will not send three White House representatives to the kid’s funeral.
There will never be a street in Paris or Belgium named after this kid.
Just another death in the War on Drugs.
In a statement Wednesday, Coroner Karl E. Addis said he does not know how Hammond’s body was positioned at the time he was shot.
He was on his knees in the front seat facing backwards driving toward the officer when shot. Can there be any doubt?
Because the media doesn’t care one bit about White lives.
I’m sorry for this family’s grief. However, if Lurch had a son, he would resemble this kid. One should never drive toward an officer when they don’t want you moving at all.
And the black folks tweeting are finding ways to criticize white folks about this shooting, too.
How about releasing the Video?
Outrage is reserved for Obama’s sons who die while assaulting an officer.
Interesting, the cop says that the kid tried to run him over, and so he opened fire, but the kid was shot twice in the back. I am not sure how someone could be shot in the back if they were really driving a vehicle pointed at the shooter.
Maybe if he was in reverse? Even then, I would think the driver would be turned halfway around, to look behind him.
Oh Puh-leaze!
We all know whites aren’t human and don’t count as “People”.
This is what the press has been spoon-feeding the sheep for over 50 years.
Lots of comments here suggest that the lack of attention is due to the fact that the victim was white.
There’s probably some truth to that. However, I think it is far more significant that the local community, which is majority white, just shrugged, thought “that’s too bad” and did nothing. The activism in local communities in Ferguson, New York and elsewhere, on the other hand, made news when cops killed young, unarmed men in suspicious circumstances.
