Not at all Shell. Personally I'd be happy that the media reported it as if race was any single part of the crime. Ignoring the race aspect isn't excusing, I'm not sure where anyone said that. It is a double standard though because if it were the other way round, race would be the main focus. Do you think otherwise?
If you want to be clear, what I personally get riled about is the double standard in how it's 1. reported on and 2. talked about.
1. applies to the media, 2. applies to this forum.
1. influences 2. to some degree, no?
