If races were reversed, world media would plaster this hate crime 24/7

@blablarg18 Based on the video, I don't think race played into it. I think they were just on a joy ride and would have struck anyone they came across, regardless of who that may be.

@MrMazda We agree, believe it or not. Except.... It ties right back to my point.
Black kids on a joyride of malice, smash a white cyclist going "Get that mofo!" or some such. -> We agree, it isn't necessarily racial.
Now reverse the races. White kids on a joyride of malice, smash a black cyclist going "Get that mofo!" or some such. -> The world, maybe not us, but the world, would make it 10000% racial.
More "George Floyd" riots. Wall to wall coverage for weeks. "Hate crime" extra charges. Night & day difference.
So, the fact we sit here & say it's not racial.... is super racial, shows Black Privilege ie. the third-class status of whites.

Regardless if the 2 black teens targeted him (or the person in the white car they hit) for his race or not, if the races were reversed, there would be riots and looting and people would be killed.
Also, if the races were reversed, the national media would be covering it non-stop.

According to Post Millenial, the driver has been arrested.
-
@raphjd Yes... We can agree on that point. It seems at this day and age that only white people can be racist.

The idiots posted the video of them murdering the man. They intentionally ran him over.

I know the intentionally ran him over, but we don't know if it was based on race.
I highly suspect it was based on race.

I think the knew they were running him over because he was white. If you watch the whole video of them doing it, they did use a slur before running him over

Update - Jesus Alaya (17) and Jzamir Keys (16), to be tried as adults. Seems like 1 Hispanic, 1 Black.
At the moment, media accounts may conflict as to who drove when what was hit, who said what when, etc. So you can search your news & see what you think.
