Why was the shooting of Michael Brown considered a hate crime, but the beating to death of a white Bosnian male by black people is not?

Is this not a double-standard?

    Michal Brown was not a hate crime, and as far as the Bosnian kid their is no political gain for the left to push it.

    What planet do you live on? The shooting of Michael Brown was not considered a crime at all.

    Actually, the shooting was not considered nor discussed as being a hate crime.

    The man was not attacked just because he was white; that would be a hate crime. The criminals attacked him because he was there. And FYI, they were all arrested and put in jail.

    The shooting of Michael Brown was actually considered to be justifiable homicide.

    Because the Media knows what story will sell, and what story will not. Some "black" teenager getting shot sounds worse than a white man to most peopke, unfortunately.

    Michael brown robbed a store while the white guy did not. People in society are more interested in some thug dying. It is sad what liberals have done.
