If Obama had a son, would it also look like Roderick Scott Or Christopher Cervini.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gravitymaster 0 #2 September 15, 2013 turtlespeed. . . If Obama had a son, would it also look like Roderick Scott I'm actually surprised that Scott was not at least convicted of manslaughter. The difference I see here is that Scott grabbed his gun and went looking for a confrontation with these teens, GZ did not. Or Christopher Cervini.

I like how, in the Zimmerman case, it was immediately pounced on by the "Race Neutral" Presidency, but they haven't been able to find any comment whatsoever from the admin regarding this case.

Telling, isn't it? Perhaps because the dead kid in this case was caught in the act of B&E to the shooter's car before attacking the shooter and in the other case was walking down the street?"There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

Darius11 12 #6 September 16, 2013 I think its telling but its always been telling. I think black people felt the same way about every other white president. That the white president is not as sympathetic to there concerns as he is to whites. I think you just dealing with something you never have because we have never had a black president before. Here is a case where being black killed the guy http://www.sentinelsource.com/news/national_world/police-kill-man-seeking-help-after-crash/article_8b62227d-982b-5bd1-8b99-d109ecbd1e6f.html Now am I sure if he was white he would be alive? No but you know perception did have something to do with it. If it was a white dude in a suit would they shoot him right away? I don't think so. So yes i agree race makes a difference but at the same time i don't think its just Obama who is effected by such things. I think white people have just never been on the other end of it.I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." - Kurt Cobain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
