So not a hate crime?

[Ashock]

Personally, I am against the whole designation of "hate crime". When you commit a violent crime, it is in itself a crime involving hate, but as there is currently such a designation..... I guess only whites are capable of hate crimes:

This is the story:

This is the White House response:

And of course that pillar of impartial news, CNN, and one of it's well known hosts:

However, yes I forgot... Trump supporters are racist you know.

Sometimes you just need to wait a bit to see if they do the right thing.

Oh, I did not post this thinking that this would not be handled sooner or later. I posted to make people understand how a black on white crime is initially viewed in the media and in the current White house. If the situation was reversed and it were four whites doing this to a black guy, it would be condemned immediately by all possible sources. There would also be violent protests all over the country, demanding, accusing, looting and breaking.

Also, notice how the president and the CNN stooge are both black. Is it a wild coincidence that this is their reaction when a white person is brutalized this way?

This is directly from the Yahoo article:

In an earlier statement to media, Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi stopped short of describing the incident as a hate crime, sparking outrage on social media. He said that despite the fact that the suspects made “terrible racist statements,” investigators were still not sure of the motive.

“We do not believe the victim was targeted because of his race or because of a political affiliation,” Gugliemi said then.

The first step to correcting a problem is acknowledging that it exists. Until people admit to themselves that there is a tremendous double standard in this country that has been perpetuated over at least 20 years if not more, it won't be fixed. We took the 1st step in November.
It's just one step though.
