Pogroms is what they want, illegals vigilantelism and terrorism, bin laden style, using hate of america or Israel as a prop.

When he gets out of prison he can get a job with the New York Times style guide, because only white male Republicans can be racist.

Jeez. I’ve shot yellow people (USA), White People (as a cop) and black People (As a cop and in the USA) and women (as a cop). So if I murder someone for the F of it, I’m OK?

I knew the guy he killed, he was a retired train conductor who was now driving a taxi part time. Matter of fact that photo in the middle is him at the garage. I haven’t seen him in a while, but I recognized him immediately. Just think: The same thing happened to George Zimmerman only the 2nd amendment saved his life before Obamas son could do any more damage.

I have the same reaction to this as I would if the races were reversed - who cares?? It shouldn’t matter if he punched the guy because he was white, because he was trying to rob him, because he didn’t like how he was walking, or because he just felt like punching someone. The only facts that matter are that he punched the guy, the guy fell, and the guy died. Murder is murder, and hate crime charges are BS, regardless of who is charged.

Second time today I’m looking at picture of one of Obama’s sons who committed violent crime and don’t see remorse, don’t see any sense of the gravity of what was done, and the look of a brain-dead thug. It looks like the SOB is smiling during his time in front of the judge - yeah buddy, it’s big freaking joke...

Heck, it's not just the picture. Look at what he said in his jailhouse interview - he all but openly said he thinks it's a joke:

“You think I’m afraid of these charges?” he huffed.

“I punched a police officer in Newburgh in front of a crowd of people and all his colleagues and I was out of jail in 168 hours,” he said.

Of course, racism is exclusively a white thing. He's justified because his ancestors were slaves.

I agree that the whole concept of a "hate crime" is politicized BS that has no place in the justice system. That being said, as long as these laws ARE (unfortunately) on the books, they should at least be consistently enforced, so that you don't have blacks or other minorities as a de facto protected class of criminals (i.e. whites can be charged with a murder plus additional hate crime charges, while black murders are immune to the additional charges).

Maybe this murdering thug didn’t get enough Midnight Basketball...or his EBT is recharged with enough each month. Whatever the circumstances, he obviously has suffered from white society.

Ah, midnight basketball. Making inner city hoods more nocturnal and more agile since the 1980's...

Oh I'm sure he's suffered mightily. Was given an opportunity for a free education, had to fill out forms for medicaid and care, lost his Obama phone and had to play chess in a park, poor guy is totally a victim.

All white creepy ass crackers are racist. The people who call them that are honest, upright, kind, tolerant, hard-working non-violent people.

Also, red is green and blue is yellow.

Brother Lashawn says it was a heartwarming act of tolerance, in other words - got it...
