White guy goes into a movie theater and kills 12 people and wounds 60, major news story.
Black guys go on a drive-by rampage and kill 12 and wound 60, no coverage at all.
I guess that a white guy going on a shooting rampage is so rare that it is actually news while the Blacks killing everyone isn't? I mean you tell me scally. What is the deal here?
"No coverage at all"
Yet he cites the Huffington Post, one of the most widely read internet news cites in the country.
A simple google search reveals the violence in Chicago made its way to the New York Times, one of the most widely read new sources...in the world....
But listen, no one is talking about it ya know... I mean, except for one of the most widely read...ah nevermind...

Scalabrine, would you say that as an innocent U.S. citizen that you are more likely to be killed by a Bullet fired from a gun that was held by a White man or one that was held by a Black man?
Those are whites dying in your cited articles?
I love how you twist and turn stories in your favor like you were handling pretzel dough...
How about I ask you a question.
Were more people afraid, and subsequently were more cops stationed at theaters across the nation on the look out, these last three weekends to go see Dark Knight Rises for a random white terrorist would enter the theater and shoot them or a random black terrorist would enter the theater and shoot them?

Oh no, my friend, these were covered, but only by their own local media.
I don't know about you, but when 10 innocent lives are lost to me, seems just an important to me whether they are enjoying a movie in a theater or sitting on their front porch enjoying a sunny afternoon.
The stories you linked were national news and I linked an NYT article to prove it (which you ignored...there are many, many more links from MAJOR news outlets). I know very well about them and anyone in tune with the national news is well-acquainted with the violence occurring in Chicago.
Oh you care so much about the minority inner city life now don't you...
It seems that way doesn't it. But that care only seems to arise when I come in the thread and counter with white male terrorist slaughter examples. It is then your bleeding heart leaks with anguish for those 'innocent' minority lives of those dearly departed you make them out to be. Bravo...Bravo.

Funny, those stories that I posted haven't been plastered on my e-mail homepage every single day, but the Colorado shooting is.
One of the worst domestic terrorist attacks in American history on a random group of people in a movie theater should be plastered on your email everyday.
Like I said earlier, the links you posted do not qualify as domestic terrorist attacks.

Terrorism is an act of violence used to express political agenda.
What was the political agenda of the Colorado shooter again?
To express a political agenda???? What about a religious agenda??? That is ONE alternate definition of terrorism. I suggest you look it up again and read all the definitions of what terrorism could mean.

Blacks murder Whites at more than twice the rate that a White murders a Black. Staggering numbers when you consider the populations of each race.
HERE is yet another story of a black youth beating an elderly couple. He also felt the animal instinct to rape the near blind 85 year old wife before battering her to death.
Very nice.
And the domestic terrorist attacks, of which the list is also quite staggering, both racially and religiously motivated and includes attacks on innocent civilians - black white and everything in between - is dominated by the white male. I can supply you the list if you'd like.
And that is significant why? Because we are waging war as I type solely to stomp out the terrorist cells in Afghanistan, (and a failed plight in Iraq,) of Muslim extremists, when the biggest threat to this country is the right-wing extremist, almost exclusively white male and after the Aurora shooting, potentially completely random.
Now Slovak, which do you think the majority of this country cares more about? Your claims using your statistics of convenience where you attempt to bring all blacks to some level of demonic possession or inherently amoral because they 'murder whites' at 'twice the rate', or terrorism, which this country will wage multiple wars for (except within its own borders where the real threat lies from right wing extremists)?
And by the way, those stats you cited are skewed because it doesn't count white cops and the blacks/minorities who were gunned down by them or killed within their custody. That number in itself is probably more staggering then anything else in this conversation.

Do you have the stats for how many innocent civilians with no criminal record are killed yearly by the police?
Stats? Well the police make those stats and they are of course, in their favor.
Blacks are routinely killed by police on a weekly basis all over the country with their excuse of 'he made a furtive move possibly for a gun'. Blacks are always looking to shoot cops in the cops eyes when most are non-violent drug possessors. No matter.
It is a way of life for the Black community but on the official record, it is 'good police work' as the bodybag is zipped up.
Here's a famous one where a black male was executed in full view of a on-looking crowd. (while handcuffed on his stomach).
I have many more disturbing examples.
Again, this is a way of life for the Black community. They know their life is in danger whenever a cop confronts them at any time, which given the way the prison industrial complex works, is often and provides a constant funneling of black males into their system.

They have the same opportunities both employment and educational, which is the foundation of self-worth and future family prospects, that everyone else does right?
An inner city has this compared with say, someone living in say, the Hamptons?

So this gives them a free pass to Murder, Steal, and/or Deal Drugs?
C'mon scalabrine, you are even smarter than this.
I'm giving people a free pass for murder when I just condemned the terrorist murders of the past three weeks?
As far as your last two examples, there is much more theft on Wall Street (and much more harmful to boot) than in an inner city and more drugs on college campuses than most project block houses.
Furthermore, if you want to ignore the socioeconomic conditions associated with what the state defines as 'crime' - if you want to compare the outcomes of children in stable middle-class communities or the Hamptons and ones from inner cities - be my guest. You have been doing it for as long as you've been here.
