Because I personally know a civil rights lawyer in NYC who's pretty certain of foul play.
I'm sure being 9000 miles away you know better than the local legal community.
Well look at that, the NYPD just decided it wasn't a suicide and is investigating all leads - announced yesterday morning:

3 white guys killed in Fresno, shot at random by a black man because they were white.
Yea, but Fresno. When I lived in the valley this was just called "Tuesday".3 white guys killed in Fresno, shot at random by a black man because they were white.
3 white guys getting killed every tuesday....trump news network would be benghazi-ing the shit out of it.....
this about sums it up:
"White people in the South believed in their right to own human beings so badly that they decided it was more important than being part of America. Ironically, the people waving Confederate flags are the same ones who rail about “patriotism” and being a true American."

There was also a terrible fear of reprisal. As slaves outnumbered their white owners they feared that ending slavery would result in a murderous uprising taking vengeance on the people that had brought generations of suffering. This is also the driving motivation behind the generation of extreme repression of former slaves after the civil war and not just your run of the mill racism Americans like to apply no non-Europeans. Something that Toshi doesn't seem to understand when he thinks that affirmative action with black people is unfair in regards to other minorities.
maybe if that murderous uprising was allowed to proceed, we'd be dealing with fewer racist fvcks today
Related: How many "look at this high schooler who got into all of the Ivy League schools!" stories have you seen recently? I've definitely seen a few.

See lack of Asians, and it's not for effort or achievements.
Office Harley-Douche was commenting that it would be fine to run over "kids dressed like thugs as they are probably drug dealers" if one had to avoid a dog while driving.
I asked him if was OK to run fat middle aged bikers off the road because biker gangs run most of the drug distribution on the west coast.
I am sure that race has nothing to do with the fact that society judges kids silly fashion choices because it may match their preconception of a drug dealer, but a fat middle aged man in a biker costume is just seen as a "bad boy".

So that makes it all okay.
I don't think that's what Steve is saying. While Dixie is infamous for racism, the phenomenon is not restricted to the south. @stevew: I hope I at least half understand where you might be coming from...
(I knew that...I was trying to be obnoxious. I cling to the belief that we are all racist in some way shape or form...we are all scared/intimidated/weirded out by that which is different than we are. It is only by overcoming this fear can we move ahead together.)
Totally.
The problem is racism is bias based on race. Much of the time, we don't realize when we are biased. Ignorant white Christians think that racism is only consciously/actively hating a certain race or being part of the KKK/Black Panthers, when it goes so much deeper than that. We all have biases based on race. Some of us realize this and try to avoid it/improve. Some people don't give a flying **** and just care about themselves.
Dough positive?
It's typically about race, not freedom of speech:

No, no there is not need for me to re clarify, because the Muslim ban is totally not a Muslim ban even though he calls it a Muslim ban.
I really do wonder if Spicer was trained by Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf ?

It's not racism, it's cultural anxiety!
Now all we need is big pharma to come up with a pill, but I am guessing it wouldn't be covered under the AHCA?

While I love a train wreck as much as the next guy, and certainly Rachel Dolezal qualifies, I actually feel kind of bad for her these days. If she was running around telling everyone she was Napoleon vs. random black person, she might have gotten the mental help she clearly needs by now.
