Yet early in the original article they made a point of identifying him as white.

I have no problem with a suspect being identified as white. I definitely think the public deserves to have a description and to know who they should be looking out for.

My problem is with the lack of a description when a suspect is not white. Even worse, is the attempt to deflect any negative attention away from a non-white, non-Christian, non-supposedly-oppressed-and-misunderstood-group.

Pretending a problem doesn’t exist, doesn’t make it go away. In fact, it helps it to thrive.
