Imagine if whites were trying to drive a black family out of the neighborhood.

I don't understand. Is the boy that shot the intruder black or white? Is the boy that was shot black or white? What does race have to do with shooting someone that is breaking into your house.?

I can't make heads or tails of that either. Someone breaks into my home, they're just gonna be red. Blood red.

I don't get it either, nor could I figure it out from the article. I don't know what color has to do with a breaking and entering and attempted burglary.

You could try RTFA. It's only a few sentences long.

Nothing, but it has everything to do with the reporting.

Remember that gay guy up in wyoming a few years back? A non-incident really, not worth much more than a few lines in the local papers, except for the fact he chose to sleep with other men, suddenly it was national, fron page news for months.

Wes Stephens - the shooter - is black. McGhee - the one who was shot - is white. The neighborhood is predominantly black, from the story.

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.

Obscene graffiti with racial overtones directed toward "Wes" is sprayed in white paint on the road in front of the Stephens home and along Camp Road. Stephens is white, McGhee black.
