[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And why is there barely any media coverage on this? Seems to me if someone posts that they hate white people and then go and kills a random white person for no reason, that is a hate crime. If someone posted they hated gay people or black people, and then went and killed a random gay guy or African-American woman for the thrill of it, that would constitute a hate crime, no? Just wondering cause it seems like we should be outraged by hate crimes on the whole. And even white males can be subject of that but no one wants to talk about it. Why?

Barely any media coverage?  I saw it this morning on at least one of my usual news sites (Fox, CNN, MSNBC).  I'd say that's fairly mainstream.  I don't exactly spend my days with my ears pressed to the fringes of the internet looking for under reported news.

Of course it is a hate crime.  Haters gonna hate.  Assholes and idiots have all kinds of bizarre and terrible motives for the awful things they do.  So we have a racist black kid here.... alert the media?  Really? What difference does it make to the dead guy or the rest of us if the motive was racial hate?  Does it make you feel better to know that black people can commit hate crimes too?
