In an act of pure hatred and racism, two black teenagers poured gasoline on a fellow teenager, lit him on fire and told him he got what he deserved....because he is white. Not a peep out of Barack Obama about that though. Does that surprise you?

"Racism" is a term used only by blacks when they feel that they have been slighted. When the tables are turned if a white is victimized by a black, it doesn't apply. To me "racism" is overused and no long has any standing.

The President would never condemn the crime as it would probably cost him votes.

No, but the Trayvon Martin-George Zimmerman case is a high profile case, and the case you have cited has not been covered by the media. The President annot speak out on every case, but President's remarks were designed to comfort a grieving family and let them know that the case will be investigated. He did not convict George Zimmerman or say anything prejudicial against him. What he said was appropriate!

He doesn't get on there unless it's to his benefit. He is touting the black vote so he pretended he cared. Now he is probably not sending in the DOJ so he can tell the hispanics that he saved George from the mobs and they should vote for him. Obama's a racist hater and he hates whites worst.

Because Obama has made his career by splitting and dividing this Nation, he like his cronies are followers of the Saul Alinski methods of division and class warfare. How many times do you here about a greater number of blacks attacking one person of another race, White, Oriental, Hispanic, etc that is the only way they can confront someone. The race baiters better be careful not to wake the sleeping giant.

No, I'm not surprised. Apparently no news source outside of the two local ones reported it and they aren't the list of news worthy sources watched by this administration. Also, it took almost a month before the Zimmerman/Martin story gained national notice.

Wait until questions arise regarding the disadvantaged history of the perps or the possible provocation. pffffffttttt!

There are serious questions regarding this case if this is the Kansas City Mo. incident.. Broad daylight just blocks from his school and no witnesses? Plus, they are looking for the suspects totally different story..
I think you're acting like the racist one, Obama isn't responsible or required to speak over every murder or hate crime in our Country...

Obama's version of the Constitution's "equal protection clause" is that some folks are more equal than others, apparently. Someone who postures himself as the president needs to stay out of all pending investigations "equally."

Any hate crime based on stereotypes and hatred of another person for their race or ethnicity is racism, pure and simple. It's racism when blacks do it, it's racism when whites do it, it's racism when freaking purples do it. Any and EVERY race claims racism when they feel they've been slighted, and any and every race refuses to accept the guilt that goes along (as it should) when crimes of this nature are committed. Basically, "Our **** don't stink, but their's does!!" It's appaling and sick, and if the President doesn't mention it, it won't make me think less of him than I already do. It's not possible to think less of him.

Not for PC Libs like yourself. But the circumstances were far more shocking in this case burning someone alive than a guy getting himself shot tusseling over a gun. So this case had even more justification to become a "national issue" addressed by a guy masquerading as our president, don't you think?

Which would you prefer if you were facing execution? A bullet to the brain, or several minutes of agony unlike anything you've ever known?
