What does race have to do with shooting someone that is breaking into your house.?
That's what I'd like to know, because I don't care what race the intruder is black, white, asian or martian... they fidna' get hurt if they break into my home.
The race doesn't matter when someone is breaking into your home. What matters is the history of "hate crimes" against this white family by black youth. Even more so is the fact the white family is in a predominantly black neighborhood.
Reverse the roles, a black family being intimidated by a white community. And you get the picture.
