This is what a culture of “moral outrage” gets you. One kid calls someone gay on Facebook and four others think that gives them license to torture him by shooting him, beating him with a crow bar and cutting him with a box cutter. This is exactly the message that the media sends to kids — any response, no matter how harsh, is OK if someone engages in non-PC behavior.

Yup. Whenever a black person goes postal, MSM focuses primarily on whether someone may have used the verboten “racial slur.” This implies that the person of melanin enhancement was justified in his rampage if this word was used.

Perfectly logical behavior based on what our society is teaching and doing now. It’s practically the bible for the left.

Don’t forget Hollywood. They probably have seen a number of movies where this was done...and cheered.

One shudders to think what they might have done to him if he mentioned that he doubted that man-made global warming is real.
