Even while this shooting may not constitute what is legally considered a hate crime, the man did shoot and kill a teenager so he should be arrested on that account alone- What other factors could be at play here besides racism?
· Should neighborhood crime watch participants be allowed to carry weapons and should they have to pass some type of screening interview?
· What do you think about the sentence “ this kid looks like he is up to no good and they always get away?” Could this have been phrased differently so that the outcome could have been different??
· Do any of you feel like that biased language is on the rise or is it just so focused on in the media that any event makes it seem like this when it may actually be on the decrease? Key phrase is “seems to.”
