Will they call this a hate crime?

[SoonerNate]

Why or why not?

Nope, not a hate crime when done to whitey.

aint that a bitch?

its not ok for white folks to be mean to anybody thats a different color, but those same differently colored folks can be as mean as they want to ol whitey and its called racial pride.

[yermom]

there is a difference between killing a guy because he's an ******* and killing a guy because he's white

[SicEmBaylor]

Racist or not, look at their pics and tell me which one you'd rather have living next door.

....that's what I thought.

but if a white guy kills a black guy, who's also an *******, its a hate crime.

The man was killed because of his views on race. That sounds like a hate crime.

[lexsooner]

How do you know the killing did not arise from a fight over who is a bigger loser?

If I recall correctly, the stats on hate crimes shows blacks commit their share. It's not an exclusive club.

something tells me that's not a law in the books

Based only on the info in the article, this is not necessarily true. He could have been killed because he stiffed the killer on payment for yard work. The article doesn't really give any discovered motive for the killing...If so though (that he was killed for something as trivial as stiffing the guy on yardwork), the amount of force used seems quite excessive for such a trivial thing, and the murderer definitely could be considered a further threat from society, and should therefore be removed from it.

God's aim sucks. He missed me.

While I agree with you can you imagine if the roles were reversed and victim was a Black Panther? You know that the media would be immediately running with the story as being a hate crime.

I'm not sure what the legal definition of a hate crime constitutes, but it appears that the man killed another out of hatred. I would think that makes it a hate crime. Silly me.

[Curly Bill]

I killed a guy once, but I didn't hate him.

That's why I'm here today to enthrall you clowns with my rapist whit.

But that is true for nearly all these hate crimes. It is really outside the realm of possibility that some other reason could have initiated the violence in the vast majority of these crimes?

There is a saying...

If your black and proud, its called pride.
Hispanic and proud its called culture.
White and proud its called racism.
