Why is it that because I don’t believe this is a race issue, but a crime issue, I’m supposed to be deluded. When the story broke about the young lady suing Nascar for racial discrimination alot of FR had no sympathy, some even went as far as to question the young lady’s story. I love to Freep, but I know which threads are going to piss me off eventually, because every closet racist crawls out of the woodwork.

I really don't see it as a race issue, but as a media issue. The media loves to divide on the issue of race--as long as they can portray it one way. Let a white person commit an act of violence upon a black person and the media will go berserk and every talk show will have a "dialog on race."

But, let a black person commit a violent crime on a white person and the media ignores it.

It is not racist to point out that simple fact.

I’m still trying to understand why any crime becomes an issue of race. I think what happened to this family is horrible, no matter their race. But because the perps have “ethnic” names people start ragging on diversity and black people. I know tons of black teenagers who make good grades and a fine members of my community. I know black boy scouts, cheerleaders, athletes, student leaders, what the hell do these a-holes have to do with black people in general?
