I just saw an astounding statistic. 66% of white folks believe that race had nothing to do with this?

I had no clue there were so many rocks in the country for all these people to live under.

I'm still not absolutely certain myself, although I'm pretty sure it may have been a factor.

Bottomline, Noon; A lot of white folk are thinking the claims of prejudice is just more "playing the race card" by the likes of Sharpton and Obama.......They will make that assumption automatically. It's in their programming to assume everything is a sinister left wing plot now.

I think it's obvious the kid was targeted by fatboy because he was black.

I can't see anyone disputing this.

I also think it is obvious if a black man followed a white kid then a scuffle ensure and an unarmed white kid was dead and a black man had shot him no matter what story he came up with he's in jail and not likely to ever get out.

It's sad that so many people are incapable of picking up on sarcasm. I mean, come on, Dave got it.
Do I have to go back to using the "sarcasm alert" disclaimer in my posts?

Reminds me of that old time favorite, sure to fill the dance floor: "Get the Funk Outta My Face" I think it was Bob James.
