Racial Taunting in Cleveland?
As more details come out regarding the school shooting in Cleveland, it seems clear that the shooter was targeted for ridicule and abuse because he was the lone (or one of few) white students in a black school. It's even being reported now that, minutes before the shooting, he was attacked and "punched in the face" by a black student in the hall.
In the days prior to the attack, he was also attacked by black "christians" because he said he did not believe in god, and worshipped rocker Marilyn Manson instead. Somehow, after being attacked, he was suspended instead of his attackers.
This in no way justifies his attack. But if he felt isolated and under seige in school, we need to at least acknowledge and understand the reasons behind his actions.

Yes! Where is the equality in this world? Notice how the media buried the race issue here? Didn't even mention that the student was white in most of the coverage I've seen. However, an equally disturbing incident happens with the Jena 6, and the media is all over it. Hmmmm... it seems the media, and the masses in general only defend attempted murder due to racial tension when the perps are black. How about we don't defend attempted murder at all?
