[QUOTE="BIG_MIKE2005, post: 2239287, member: 3309"] Yep, between Obama opening his big mouth & the media not reporting FACTS, they together spurred the racial tensions over this case. Had they actually reported the facts, shown current pictures of the people involved & been honest with the public from the start it never would have gained this publicity or chance for riots after the verdict gets read. Honestly the media should be called out on this as building racial tensions from poor reporting. But that will never happen. What I find extremely sad is the fact that this happened & it turned into a national story while other cases which put the shoe on the other foot get little to no coverage. I read another article the other day where 3 black youths jumped a white guy & beat him badly then knocked him into the road where a car ran over him. They are arrested & in jail for this but you have to dig or just stumble across the news story. So why is it in today's society it's front page news if a black person gets killed by someone light skinned but it's not if the situation is turned around? We as a society should find this completely unacceptable. [/QUOTE]
