So it is ok for white people to rob and kill, but not for blacks

Alarming amount of racism in comments for some reason

Since he’s white, the judge will say he didn’t know he was doing wrong since he wasn’t punished enough as a child. So he’ll get 6 months probation and 140 hours community service. Good old American “justice”.

If he was black they would just let him go. Good old California justice. No murder no foul.

This is why our cities, states, while fucking country is falling apart. Racist ass people. I get it. Not everyone is going to like everyone else. That’s fine. But can’t you keep your negative, childish comments to yourself? Hate isn’t going to make anything better. And news flash, black people are no more at fault for the fuckery that takes place than white people, Hispanic people or purple people. Get it together. You look like a moron. Have a great day.

Actually Nikkol…..

It is you that look like the idiot. Have you done your research? Did you know that according to Bureau of Justice Statistics, although blacks only represent approx 13% of the American population they committed 52% of murders from 1980 to 2008.

Did you know that blacks are 7 times more likely to commit crime?
