Poor because the title focused more on Ana Kasparian's mood than on the egregious matter of a black boy getting shot to death for being black. The title was a cheap populist move on my part, and I've changed it. Thanks for calling me out on that Peroxide.>> ^VoodooV:

Poor video title, IMO.

how so?

Fucking shit.
It should be legal for the family to go gun down this asshole's entire family now.


HOW The fuck was your comment upvoted and mine was downvoted! Fucking Cat favoritism!!!

>> ^Yogi:

So if I don't have a record I can shoot black people? I can't follow any of this logic...I have to go lie down for awhile cause this is depressing.


And by that logic you can kill everyone and therefore be the most prolific serial-killer of all time, charged with nothing. "He was coming right at us!!!"...


This makes me sick.

Personally, this makes me hate gated communities more than anything. Forget racism. Gated communities are just breeding grounds for that type of mentality that says anyone who doesn't look or act or makes as much money as us is suspicious or bad.
When you live in a community like that...you ARE in the bubble, you're out of touch, you're not a participant in the daily trials and struggles of the rest of the world.
To me this really isn't about racism, sure there is an undercurrent of racism, but IMO it's mostly about the evils that happen when someone is given power without the maturity to use it wisely.
I googled the incident and one thing TYT appears to have left out is that reports do seem to indicate that the two guys had a fight before the shooting so it wasn't like the neighborhood watch guy just casually strolled up and shot him for no reason.
Still though. Neighborhood watch guy was armed, kid wasn't and I highly doubt there was any threat serious enough to warrant self defense with fatal results.
One thing I was surprised to learn from the other article was that the neighborhood watch guy was only 28. I have to admit, I assumed it was some crusty, bitter old man.


My parents live in a gated community. They don't understand why I find the whole concept repulsive. It's all about fear of the "other", race, class, age, religion or whatever. We do live in Canada so one can be reasonably sure of not being shot by the neighbours, even if the mentality is the same.

This incident still fits the definition of classic racism- it's hard to imagine the kid being dead if he were white.

That is wrong thinking.
Run down the guy = fair play.
Run down his family = new, innocent victims. (plus you open yourself up to having your own family run down by "rights" of your own logic).


True. Perhaps it's not legally justified or morally right, but at least you cut the plant down at the root and keep that bad seed from spreading.

Does anybody have any updates to this story? I think it's absolutely absurd that the guy wasn't arrested IMMEDIATELY. Just discharging a weapon within city limits gets you arrested, even if there's no evidence of a crime. How the fuck does this dude get away with murder? Is this a small town where he is buds with the chief of police or something?

hehe black people...
still entertaining

I am a little rusty people, is that blatant racism itself or what ? Or is that just a fucking douchebag thing to say ? Puting a sarcasm shroud around that doesnt detract from the sentiments it portrays. Like I said I am not sure.
@everyone


It's both racism and douchebag. I guess we should call it doucheism.

Can't be hobbled. Can't be Siftquisitioned. So now you are instabanned.
This is the result of your blatant trolling racist comment on a video concerning the murder of a child:

It's mentioned near the end that they got into a scuffle.
