@ Fuzion20056: I don't think GCI did that on purpose. GCI was telling the stories in chronological succession and then asked a rhetorical question at the end of the details. I wouldn't read into it too mcuh.

@ TBlogger2009: Whether or not the majority of blacks come from "positions of privlege" or not is irrelevant. To say its OK for blacks to attack whites because it "stems from a defensive position of having to survive through systematic oppression" is absolute bullshit.

The point is any time two people of a different race argue or fight, it doesn't automatically mean its a hate crime or racially motivated and that's the truth!

You want to know the difference between a white people being attacked by blacks and vice versa. The difference is that the majority of blacks do not come frompositions of privlege. Black people are not in a position of racial superiority. 9 times out of 10 if a white person attacks a black person it is due to racial hatred. The reverse, where blacks attack whites usually stem from a defensive position of having to survive through systematic oppression and individual instances of racism. White people who claim reverse racism do not know what the word racism means. To be a racist, one must be part of an apparatus of racial privilege - that includes institutions, judiciary and social advantage - all of which black people do not have the benefit of. The laws surrounding hate crimes are there to protect the minority from the tyranny of the majority. Also, just because you hear someone has been charged with a hate crime doesn't necessarily mean that charge will withstand the full brunt of the legal process. being considered innocent until proven guilty is the one of the privileges of being white.

You know its amazing how there is a double standard here in America. In your post when you went through the white on black crime you NEVER ONCE said oh "why should this be called a hate crime" etc. But when the whites got attacked by the blacks you start questioning if it is a hate crime or not. First off they addressed the victims as "white boy" and crackers. If that isn't racist I don't know what is. The point I'm trying to make is just because it is a black on white crime DOESNT mean it can't be a hate crime.

To the poster eddie...street fighting? I mean come on, there were 40-50 hispanics and blacks chacing THREE white kids. They could of seriously been injured. And don't think that there isn't any other black on white hate crimes because there is. But, the liberal media decides to cover those up (that's a fact).

When I think 'Hate Crime' I think of some clear cut Matthew Sheppard or Robert Byrd (the guy who was dragged behind a car for being black not the KKK senator) shit where it is clear cut and repulsive.

15 and 16 year old kids street fighting shouldn't fall under that category. The hate crime law is well meaning but poorly executed and amounts to not much more than the thought crime law.

Anyway, Fuck Joey Fama for the Yusef Hawkins killing. I got gang attacked twice (in retrospect haterimed) for being white and the battle cry was 'Yusef Hawkins.' I like clean Disney NY better.
