96. Can't avoid noticing that when a suspect is an African American, some people start going berserk,

bouncing off the walls, attacking anyone who doesn't join them in their seething rage.

When someone goes to the trouble to point out the suspect is black, and it isn't mentioned in the article, that someone tells you all you need to know where his/her "sentiments" lie.

This pattern always reveals far more than the howling, shrieking person will acknowledge every time. Will even get wild and silly attacking everyone who points it out.

Notice the quality of the venom in this thread, compared to the thread I posted yesterday when no one dived in to drag out a photo of the suspect to prove she was a black woman, although someone did feel compelled to announce she was plump and, uh, oh, yeah, black.

The first thread did NOT have "posters running wild" in it. Very subdued.

Here's my thread on the same subject, from yesterday, without the article's mentioning the suspect is black, nor anyone dragging out a photo, to rally the ones who "think" like that:
