Notice how the right-wing will almost ALWAYS take the case of a white person versus a black person [View all]

If there is a racial issue, you can bet that the right-wing in this country will take the side of the white person. It's like its in their DNA or something. They just can't help themselves, even when they know the person they are siding with is in the wrong. When they know that their person is in the wrong, they'll invariably throw out some unrelated, irrelevant example - "Well what about this case over here, how come you guys aren't talking about that?"
