If the reverse was the case, where a black family was the receiver of the brick, it would get two hours on MSNBC.

In the Liberal Utopia, all the animals are equal, it's just that some animals are more equal than others.

I’m sure they’ll charge the white family with some sort of hate crime.

I’m sure Obammie the Commie will say the white home-owner acted stupidly.

The brick, thrown through a 4-year-old boy’s bedroom window, read “Keep Eastside Black. Keep Eastside Strong.”

Under that, it said "Peace out!".

Was the brick Mirandized? Was the brick allowed to talk to a lawyer? Did the brick come from a poor and disadvantaged set or circumstances which would explain the brick’s behavior?

Who writes these headlines?

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Police have not classified this incident as a hate crime, said Austin Police Sgt. Richard Stresing, because hate crimes target an individual specifically because of an identifying characteristic, like race.

Huh? It says on the brick "Keep Eastside black," and it was thrown through the home of the only white family. What else do they need?

Someone please explain to me why this incident would not be considered a ‘hate crime’ under the definition. The message is clearly race related and because it was attached to a brick thrown through a window, it is clearly intimidation and criminal.

This is not being prosecuted because the victim is white. Are whites excluded from the hate crimes laws?

The brick was later arraigned before a wise Latina and released.

“Keep Eastside Black. Keep Eastside Strong.

Not a hate crime? Good, then when it happens again only the other way around, it won't be a hate crime. By golly, I think we got something here.

This is clearly a hate crime and the authorities should throw the book at the brick.

Exactly...big media would be all over this if the races were reversed...you’d have the Justice Department, the FBI, and state and local authorities tracking all clues.

But if you’re white...the world doesn’t work that way.

Ask the poor cop who arrested Gates.

Yeah? And why not? Can’t they read what’s on the brick??

No surprise here. Hate crime laws were created for the express purpose of putting Whites in jail for anything they might do or think, or not do or not think, while letting non-Whites go free for any crime committed against Whites.

Change the colors and the headline is something like “police investigate racial incident” and the article keeps repeating “the homeowner, who is black...” and “keep the neighborhood White” two or three times until everyone gets the point.
