I hope leaders of the white community will stand up and condemn this crime.

I wonder if police will be condemned on this one for acting as judge jury and executioner? Murderer is killed while murdering, I will reserve my tears.

And two, Michigan does not have the death penalty.
Problem solved.

Did I bullseye the target?

According to our sister station WOOD: Gordon was in jail on two counts of criminal sexual conduct, Michigan State Police records show. He was also facing charges of kidnapping, assault with a dangerous weapon, and domestic violence."

Pretty much the reason I don't want him in my life.

(224 posts)He was acting on his own and probably had some other issues going on in his life. Or he just snapped. Either way he does not represent the rest of white america and we should all just as quickly forget about it and move along.
Now if he was black of course then we need to dig into his childhood, seek out his parents and teachers and determine of course whether he was in gangs or stole when he was young.
Thankfully for the media they will not have to do that kind of reporting on this one.

And, yes, they've already started digging into his past. Before the implicit assertion that since he was white, nobody would do this. Shouldn't make assertions that are pre-falsified. What you see isn't all there is.

(35,353 posts)cops and the BLM people should be gunned down. I am serious that's what I hear every day in the Ohio valley. Then I see them
talking to some black person sometimes I am tempted to ask if they have any idea how they talk about you behind your back.
I can't imagine any area of our country that has more racists than we have in the WV/Ohio valley.
