A question to all of you who view this lawsuit as a case towards racial equality.
Why is it that when a black man gets beaten by a white man/group of men, it's worthy of National news?
Why is it that when a white man gets beaten by a black man or a group of white men, it rarely even makes a local paper?
When whites do violence -- rape, murder, assault -- how often do they choose black victims? Shouldn't a nation of bigots target blacks most of the time? At least half of the time? Of course, it does not. When whites commit violence, they to it to blacks 2.4 percent of the time. Blacks, on the other hand, choose white victims more than half the time. [317]
