If it was a 101-year-old black woman getting mugged by a 44-year-old white man, do you think Al and/or Jesse would make a public comment?

And their public comment would be . . . what?
"This is an outrage!"
Yes it is. So?
"The guy needs to be caught!"
He was.
"The guy needs to be punished!"
He will be.
Anything else?
Get the facts right before starting a race war. In the Brawley situation, it was an African-American teenager making accusations against white men. That's not the case here. There's no "race card" to throw out.Mystery Meat said:BTExpress said:If it was a 101-year-old black woman getting mugged by a 44-year-old white man, do you think Al and/or Jesse would make a public comment?

The only card that can be thrown is the "thug" card because that what this assclown was, a thug.

The Rev's would have marched their asses into the nearest studio for CNN had the black woman been mugged by a white man.
You should take your own advice and whatever those acronyms mean. You made a jackassed statement. I called you on it. We don't need that kind of shirt on these boards. There's enough venom out here already and you know that.Mystery Meat said:boots said:Get the facts right before starting a race war.
