"Github displays a ``We stand with the Black community against police
brutality'' banner."
"I think this is unbelievably sick and twisted."
I think the above is why I have defaulted to thinking that white people
are racist until proven otherwise. (disclaimer: I am white)

Why does Black Lives Matter have to answer for looters, but the NRA
does not have to answer for school shooters?

A 25 year old black man recently walked over to a 5 year old white
child and shot him in the face, but we won't see news about that either.

That story is all over WRAL, the flagship news station in the state. So
much for nobody hearing about it. Try again.

I just think if a white man shot a black child in the face, it would be
nationwide or global news is all.

The whole difference there being when a white person shoots a black
person... Did they catch the guy who did it? If so did they arrest and
charge him? If so is he going to be convicted and go to prison? Last I
checked Timothy Loehmann didn't go to prison... The story did make the
national news as a grave miscarriage of justice though.
