It was simply my attempt to question why Zimmerman was assumed to be racially motivated while the Oklahoma case was never assumed to be such. No it wasn't. How does your first post attempt to do that? I'm actually interested in how you reconcile your first post with what you now state is the purpose of your original post. The mind boggles...

I am just a Neanderthal bigot. The only thing in this thread that you've said that I agree with. If you graduated from Georgetown, that fact would make me incredibly ashamed.

If you were ever admitted, I'd be shocked so call us even. It is always nice to see an open mind willing to admit he might not know everything. I thought I would've had to have gone to a state school to be ashamed by racist, lunatic sidewalk fans. I guess I was wrong.

I thought I would've had to have gone to a state school to be ashamed by racist, lunatic sidewalk fans. I guess I was wrong. Guess what? Most people on here don't like either of you...not because of your actual opinions, but how you choose to express them. Tact is apparently a bad word for both of you. If you actually want an honest discussion on a topic, writing a comment that would be perfectly at home on the yahoo comment section isn't the right way to do it. If you don't like the content of a comment, attack the comment and not the commenter. If you're somehow unable to do either, than please use the ignore button to save the rest of us being embarrassed to be associated with fellow alumni...

If you don't like the content of a comment, attack the comment and not the commenter. I agree with that in principal, and I don't think people should go around name-calling, but come on, there's a trend here. We shouldn't be responding to disingenuous troll fodder as if it is a serious topic worthy of discussion. There are cases where the content of a post doesn't deserve response (except maybe to be called out as such). This thread is a prime example.

I responded thoroughly to his original bait, which I shouldn't have. And what was his response? "Awww shucks, I didn't expect this!"
