I read about this story yesterday when it was reported in a local Texas newspaper.
I was appalled by some of the comments made by locals who felt too much was being made of this rape. All the males involved in the gang rape are black, and some in the black community of this small town of 8,000 insisted that white men rape little black girls all the time - and get away with it!
I don’t object to this story being reported, I just object to the headline. The headline works to diminish the crime, and I think that type of reporting causes people to grab their guns, in the pursuit of justice.
Those who insist that too much was made of the story seem to have no higher expectations of young black men; here in the northeast it got so bad you’d have news stories detailing a robbery, and police asking people to call this or that number with tips, then only giving a height and clothing description of the perps - race is deliberately omitted!
Those in denial may want to continue Obama’s illusion that there is a non-white alliance, which is just that: an illusion.
I can't believe we hadn't seen anything about this before since it happened right after Thanksgiving of last year.
