When larger numbers of people are gunned down and murdered by white people in theaters and schools do you see those coming?

It makes no difference what color he is, he was still breaking the law. Would it have been any different if he was White?

If he was white, it would have been a rare occurrence. Since he's black, it's just another day in the 'Hood.

No if he was white he would have directed his anger at a elementay school. and then blame it on video games, television, and society – When people wake up instead of falling into steroetypes, and bigotry – all races have issues – none worse than others, we are all human – 2 legs / 2 arms / 1 torso / 1 head nothing more nothing less

Really, the chimps in the jungle behave better than 1/2 the south side. They are not human. If they were we couldn't guess the color of the person committing the crime so accurately without ever seeing them.

Makes no difference? This is a regular daily multiple occurrence. So don't give me you B S and your lame defense. Another crime, another black man doing it. I don't make this up. Watch and read the news. They do it to themselves with little help.
