Monday, December 08, 2008 7:35:33 AM Man, that's sick. I hope they get raped and killed in jail.Something familiar happened in my country. The front page of the news paper had yet another "Britney speaks out", but INSIDE the news paper, not even mentioned on the frontpage, beneath an ad, was a tiny bit of text (smaller than the ad) that told about some guy who argued with his wife, went nuts, chopped of her dog's head, then chopped of HER head, and started showing it to people in the street, people that KNEW her.. Priorities...? |

Monday, December 08, 2008 4:27:29 AM This was drating sick. It's really really incomrehensible to me how a human can do such a thing to another human being. Does it say their motive or anything? Because this is just unbelievably heartless. |

Monday, December 08, 2008 4:00:49 AM @paulyshoreIt's not an excuse (there's no excuse for being a criminal), but it is a cause. Do you want to honestly say that the aftermath of all that mistreatment doesn't exist? @ProBo Of course it doesn't. But it does make me less inclined to listen. @splurbyburbl I'll explain why I consider it improper; we are all people, and as soon as you start calling people "blacks" and "gays", you are wholly defining who and what they are by one small aspect, rather than the whole. They are people, not a skin colour. Use "black" as the adjective to the noun "people", not as the noun itself. Their skin colour describes what they are. It isn't itself what they are. (If you want to use your "geese" example, it would be like calling them "beaks", taking one part and naming the whole with it). That's why I consider "group of blacks" wrong. Call me oversensitive, but hey; it's lots of small things like that added up |

Monday, December 08, 2008 3:34:01 AM @AnwarNovaOh sure it does. But speaking only for my own personal experience, it's not something that's a major issue in my country. Our problems are different. |

Monday, December 08, 2008 2:28:25 AM "I find it interesting how there are actually terms like 'black on white crime' and 'white on black crime'"These terms exist because it's important in the study of how demographics interact with each other. Statistics are statistics. The ability Americans have to create controversy out of nothing amazes me. "no one. NO ONE should be tortured or killed in such a way. These drats should be tortured the way they tortured the young couple." Please never consider holding a position of power. Not only do you lack the incredibly simple ability of writing a sentence that doesn't directly contradict the preceding one, you also don't understand the well-established problems with "an eye for an eye". |

Monday, December 08, 2008 1:00:54 AM I think these terms exist due mainly to the fact that one "race" took control forcibly over another for at least 200 years. had that not happened i don't think terms such as these would be so frequently used. as for brutal killings look around you, it goes on everyday if not in your country, someone elses. |

Monday, December 08, 2008 12:24:20 AM I would love to get my hands on those drating dippoos and return the favor. no one. NO ONE should be tortured or killed in such a way. These drats should be tortured the way they tortured the young couple. Screw race. White, black, asian, indian, etc should all be prospecuted in such events. They should be tortured in the worst way and then left to suffer.No you don't kill something (not some one) like this. You make them return the pay. You make them hate life, hate themselves, you destroy their body and let it heal only to destroy it again.. That's what they deserve and ONLY what they deserve. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 11:09:56 PM dThat's so sick. How can people be so horrible? Who cares about just race here, the fact of the matter is two people were brutally killed and tortured by four other human beings. That's what is sick here.Yeah, it is so sad that we still can be blinded by race. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 10:29:52 PM The reason why race is important here is merely this:Turn it around and make the couple black, the scumbags white and you'd have riots and Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton crying racism. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 10:00:29 PM Exactly, d3xy. I mean, I find it interesting how there are actually terms like "black on white crime" and "white on black crime", when it's just people committing crimes against other people, but because some people factor in race when committing crimes, they have to use those terms... I dunno. All this racist crap seems very silly to me. That really does suck that the media is now choosing stories now based on the race of those involved and role each race played in the crime. I really couldn't care less what race the person that killed these white people is. I couldn't care if the people were any other race for that matter. If they got killed like that, put it in the papers. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 7:52:52 PM grnday, while it's true that there's scum from every race, white on black crime is, from what I've seen, not covered often at all in American media due to political correctness. While blacks make up 13% of your country's population and whites make up 74%, but in 2002 there were 1,916,380 black on white crimes and 362,784 white on black crimes, according to the Department of Justice. It's not blacks' fault, but there is a discrepancy there, independent of racism. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 7:13:03 PM Isn't he the same guy who said that autistic children were just "brats"? Yeah this is a horrible story, but to suggest that this in anyway trumps the Mathew Shepard story or white on black violence is ignorant. Things like this are all equally horrible and happens so often that the news could hardly cover all of them. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 6:56:35 PM Hey grnday I think he's not angry because it was 4 blacks who did it, I think he's angry that the major news networks did want to inform the public about this crime. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 6:50:42 PM Oops. I mean that black people cannot be characterized as inhumane simply for being black. There are inhuman people of every race. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 6:49:32 PM Would this guy have been just as angry if 4 white guys did this to a black couple? My guess is no. This guy needs to get his ignorant head out of his ass and realize that this kind of crime happens everywhere to all races from all different races. Its not just the inhumanity of black people that make this a terrible crime. |

Sunday, December 07, 2008 6:25:55 PM "Either that, or they're pretty strange and call people who can't see "blinds" and overweight people "fats"."So what are you besides human? I suppose I cannot call you a European... not politically correct enough for ya? "Blacks" are a huge demographic while "blinds" are a tiny demographic. Last I checked, blind people don't stand to be able to affect the economy or corrections system by and large in any sinificant manner. SO from now on People.. *ahem* I mean "homo-sapiens". We are not allowed to call more than one goose "geese"... we are to name them only "fowl" and leave it at that. We don't want to hurt the European...*ahem* (sorry) "homo-sapiens" feelings. Carry on!
