Westerfield did just as bad to that five year old girl. What about that canibal a while back? Sex crimes do not need racial motivation. If they had burned the victims or hung them this might be a hate indication but they quickly killed them. No indication they even beat these people till dead when they ran over them.

Again here nothing indicates this to be other than a very very viscious crime. If race had anything to do with it that has not been indicated so far.

He asking if she had had sex with a black means nothing.

I personally don't see the need for a Hate Crime designation but if there is a need this doesn't merrit it.

Now if any evidence that it was race related comes out I might consider it.

It is altogether possible that this crime was not racially inspired, either at its onset or during its progression (I am inclined to believe that it was not at the onset and became so when forced sex between the victims was demanded).

But that is not the issue.

The issues are these: first, and foremost, that this crime is one of the most horrible crimes in American history- and that issue stands on its own without further explanation. The second issue is this (and not even the liberals who downplay the possible racial implication of the crime itself can explain it)- this crime is not receiving one-one thousandth of the attention it would receive were the races of perps and victims reversed. Why? Again, why.

That's the real lesson to be learned here, a lesson in exactly how the Frankfurt School and its disciples have already won.
