A 7 year old child is dead, how about remembering that and not the mistaken identity?

What should I got to do with anything? That's no justification for murdering someone. Oh I'm sorry I got the wrong kid.

Lol

realjohnbacon Pls write a story that examines the national reaction to an alleged white-on-black hate crime vs murders that occur daily in major U.S. cities. A LOT of people politicized this tragedy that otherwise would’ve been silent if the shooter had been identified as black from start.

Folks, it wasn't this media making this shit up...it was the mother of this little girl. She was calling this racially motivated. She said it was a white skinny dude in a hoodie. Why was she purposely lying?

Race doesn’t matter, either way I hope the suspect fries.

To the people wondering why the mother pointed to white guys in a pick-up: It’s possible that in the chaos it is the first vehicle she saw. It isn’t really her fault that the media ran with it as a hate crime ratings / web traffic driver.

So was the suspect identification. Sketches & descriptions of a “white man” with a slender build SHOUTED in the headlines. Now 2 BLACK suspects arrested & the FAKE NEWS enemyofthepeople are as MUTED on that FACT as can be. Race-baiting cowards.

He was attempting to shoot some other 7 year old girl? What?

Wait I thought it was a 'racially motivated' killing? That's what the mother said. 'White guy in a red pick up truck' not 'black guys in a Kia.' 🤔

Tragic that the media used this horrific event for demographic division. Merchants of Division have a nasty egg on their face. I would love to see journalism return

Ummm...

I think you forgot an important word in your headline or did you?

SO, the 'white guy, hate crime' reports we heard and read over and over again Why jump to conclusions and keep dividing Americans?

By 2 black men.

Man charged with murder of 7-year-old Jazmine Barnes in case of 'mistaken identity'A 20-year-old man has been charged with capital murder in the death of 7-year-old girl Jazmine Barnes, in what authorities believe was a case of 'mistaken identity.' A second man was also taken into custody in connection with the shooting. Now I'm wondering if the tipster was the one these two were looking for... Thats the darkest white man I ever did seen. Shaun King was absolutely right! ...in the same sense that he's right about his own colour. People, read the article. It explains there was an white person in a red pick up truck, but he wasn’t the shooter. That means there descriptions weren’t wrong, but it wasn’t the shooter. It must have happened so fast, which is why eye witness testimony isn’t all that’s needed

Off to pelican bay for both of them But it’s was suppose to be a white guy. No more outrage now. I wonder why? I thought it was a blue-eyed white guy with a beard and red pick-up truck?
