    In the Zimmerman case, Obama was very vocal about injustice and not only compared himself to Martin, but also said if he had a son, he’d look like Martin. Now when two 16 year old African American thugs gutlessly attack an 88 year old World War Two veteran (Delbert Belton) who was wounded in the war in the Pacific Theater of Operations, not a peep out of Obama? These two worthless pieces of fecal matter beat this old veteran to death. A man who was always helping others in his community was taken from his family and friends for his wallet? Yet, the White House has nothing to say on this? Is Obama telling the rest of America that African American teens should not be held accountable for their actions? When Obama was on Leno, he said that black teens are often wrongfully viewed suspiciously. Do you suppose the actions of these two in Seattle and the actions of the two African American teens that shot the baby in the head in Atlanta, Georgia have anything to do with the way others see black teens?

    I personally do not judge people based on race, creed, color.... However, when the POTUS remains quiet in the murder of Mr. Belton after being so vocal in the Zimmerman case, he proves his bigotry.

    Agreed! Preach on! It's terribly sad, and the media plays such a huge role in it all as well.

    This country is in big trouble. I was reading the comments and the best one I saw was, he was worth a thousand Trayvon Martins.

    Obama has set this country back 30 years in race relations. He has forced the divide wide open between whites and black. America may have been ready for a black president, but not this one.

    Don't forget about the Austrailian baseball player either! Some consistency would be nice coming from the POTUS. He never should have opened his lips regarding the Martin/Zimmerman case before it even went to trial. That was very unfair to Zimmerman especially since Obama didn't know all the facts.

    If Obama had a son, he'd probably be a juvenile delinquent!

    Nothing has been said because there's nothing to gain. Look at the last two biggest things that have been all over the news, gun control and Zimmerman case. For the white house to come out and now comment on this would lose all the support gained crom those two things and ruin the agenda they have.

    They couldn't come out and say Zimmerman was justified in defending himself with a handgun because that went against what they had been pushing for gun control so they focused on race. Now they can't come and comment or make a big deal in this because it will lose all support they had making race a issue. Its all jus politics.

    The biggest tragedy of all is that none of the cases are race related in my eyes. The Trayvon incident was self defense and the Oklahoma and WW II killings were crimes of opportunity in my opinion. Because the Trayvon incident was blown so far out of proportion we are now looking at everything as racial when the biggest common denominator is the perps were all useless scum, regardless of race. We are letting the race baiters win and at the same time leading us to a race war when there are many people of color who share my values and I am proud to be fellow Americans with while there are plenty of crackas i can't stomach and would gladly see them leave my country.

    Crimes of opportunity? I think when three POS go for a ride to randomly kill someone because they are bored is not a crime of opportunity. It was pre-planned and thought out before they got in the car. When two POS ID an old man as their target, it is because they are cowards and would not attack someone who could defend himself. After the one turned himself in, he was charged with 1st degree murder and 1st degree robbery, which means they went out with the intention of robbing and killing someone.

    He has been consistent!!! He's consistently been a moron and race-baiter since his days with ACORN, he's consistently been supported by people who are too ignorant to realize he's BAD for America, whether that was those who voted for him as a Senator from the state of Illinois, or as the POTUS, he's consistently been dishonest and unethical, whether it was inserting himself into a case like the Travyon Martin case, which really never should have seen a courtroom at all, or failing to give us the facts on Benghazi..... No doubt about it, the consistency has been there, he's consistently been WRONG about nearly every situation I've heard him speak on.....

    As for Shorty, if we "whities" were to raise hell and demand justice, demand that these "blacks" get due justice, we become racists, not activists. Our country had been "Politically Corrected" to the extent that common sense can be rationalize as wrong by the Lefties!!!!

    Rest in Peace "Shorty," and may you enjoy God's Kingdom with all of your friends and family who've passed on before you. And I pray that those basturds that murdered you may burn in hell.

    Likewise, I hope the killers of Lane (the Aussie baseball player), the baby in Georgia, and all of the other senseless murderers, are given the same fate of burning in hell. Unfortunately, many people have lost the ability to decipher right from wrong, and when race get injected into situations, people look at situations through the "emotion-scope," and can get their opinion warped by becoming sympathizers.

    Obama sets his performance standards very low and then consistently fails to achieve them.

    Yeah, I just read that. Headlines here say "Race Not A Motive in Attack on Veteran". Glad it wasn't an issue on the "attack", but how about the murder? Media, playing favorites for a century now.
