    THIS (The 3RD Paragraph of the OP) is All About RACE:

    "A scratch on a gay black man's face got wall to wall coverage by the media and this board, let's see how much attention a murdered white guy gets."

    I assume that English is your first language.

    If that is the case, then you really need some serious lessons in reading comprehension.

    Btw--I "run" from nobody.

    Living Legends (like myself) don't have to do that

    I just don't waste my time on people who think that can make a rep by taking shots at me.

    I usually don't give them the satisfaction unless they are in serious need of being set straight.

    Carry on.

    And, explain to me how the section that I quoted from the OP:

    According to you, ISN'T about race?

    You are dishonestly attempting to move the goal posts.

    The claim is that “the op is all about race”, race was mentioned twice in the OP by @Steve N including one event that had nothing to do with the article in question.

    1) ...gay black man's face got wall to wall coverage by the media...
    2) ...let's see how much attention a murdered white guy gets...

    Ummmm, race has nothing to do with the events, but it has everything to do with how liberals react to events when race is involved. Get it now?

    If they kill someone in cold blooded murder of course they should, but they shouldn't be put in an adult facility until they are actually adults.

    confirmation bias
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

    you have a preexisting belief everything is racist there for you see everything as racist

    your bias forces you to see and believe only what confirms that bias

    No I can clearly see what is racist, it is folks like you that try to tell us that racism doesn't exist.

    Hell, switch around the end result of this incident, watch the heads explode. Imagine if the musician would've been armed and killed a couple of these youths.

    They became adults, once they pulled the triggers, if they are old enough to take a life they are old enough to go to prison.

    Again as such, why shouldn't such criminals be incarcerated as adults?

    In reality, juvenile high security prisons, have the same structured way of working as adult prisons, why not house juveniles in the same prisons?

    never said racism doesn't exists its not in epidemic proportions you believe it is
    some one white calling a black person the N words is racist
    some one white calling some one black an ****** isn't but you would believe it was racist because some one white disrespecting some one black has to be about racism
    some one black being pulled over for speeding isn't racist but you believe it is because you believe blacks only get pulled over because they are black and not for speeding

    your confirmation bias makes you believe an incident is racist when its not
    because you only see and believe what confirms that bias

    Excellent post!

    And a good description of what is becoming someone termed as a racist, within the U.S.

    It's a variable as needed, but once tossed out can be very damaging.

    How would you know, since you are never on the receiving end of it.

    Try that again it doesn't make any sense.

    When we are pulled over for speeding and treated in the same manner as someone white in the same situation it isn't racist, but unfortunately in many cases it is much more.

    No it is years of seeing racism that makes me know when I see something racist, it never ceases too amaze me how someone who has never been the victim of racism can tell the folks who have what is racist and what is not.

    But your first comment makes no distinction between Black culture and a part of the Black culture. In fact, these comments make a Black vs. White argument along racial lines.
    And here again, you make no distinction. You say "A culture" but you don't say a culture within a culture. Whatever your intentions, your comments point to a single Black culture.

    And here you reinforce that idea by suggesting that Blacks in general are more criminal. This does not indicate a sub-culture.

    This echoes that previous post. It's trying to show that Blacks are more criminal. As I said, regardless of your intentions, your words make you sound racist.

    Can we all agree that our society is sick and getting sicker by the day?

    Because that is the only time they care about someone being killed is if it is done by someone black.
