well in this case BOTH guys already had criminal records so scum of the earth fits.
If you want to look at the black/white race angle can you post a story about a white guy robbing/raping and killing a black college student or how about a white guy killing his black girlfriend or wife like that Bobby Cutts guy did. I'd like to see a story calling a white guy that has done a similar crime and yet called a troubled youth or lost soul
I am pretty sure the media won't be blaming Kayne West or the video game Grand Theft Auto as a cop out like the did for the Columbine kids when the blamed Marilyn Manson and the old computer game Doom.
Besides I would like to see a black woman dump her kids in the lake or drown them in a bathtub and see her get medical treatment like those white women got.
Lets face it statistics show that the nature of crimes vary from race to race based on your upbringing. A black teenager is more likely to rob and kill at a liquor store for drug and clothes money just like a white teenager is more likely to shoot up the entire science lab because some girl rejected him or he was picked on by a couple of kids. However the media portrays the criminals under a different light.
I see the same headlines all the time...
"African American male shoots and kills 2 people in an attempted robbery." Society reaction is "What else is new"
"An armed male gunman shoots and kills 10 people and 20 other people injured then gunman takes his own on life on the campus of the local University. Details are still sketchy.
Society reaction "He was very quiet, kind of a loner" (Notice how the media never reports a description of the gunman right away when the person is Caucasian. LOL!!!!!!!
