I've been digging into this supposedly racially motivated house fire in San Antonio.

I find this article:
LINK

In it, it says:
quote:

" The police told Rivers it was definitely arson. They suspect a group of teenagers from the neighborhood broke into the house, had a party, then torched it. Yet the cops have fingerprints from the house, and believe they know the suspects. "


quote:

" Police have hesitated to say if the burning was racially motivated. In such cases, they say, the arsonist usually leaves a racist message. "But they did it to my house. I'm black," Rivers said. "You always have to think that played a part of it.


Kids from the neighborhood... this hood is named Shavano Park. Homes start in the half millions and go well over a million dollars.

Probably the same group of racist white kids who painted a racial slur at Lebron's gate.

“You just have to be careful,” Rivers said. “They both were talking. I don’t think Luka was saying anything racial, but he was swearing, so they both were doing it. It’s an emotional game. "It’s a playground game out there in the playoffs," Rivers continued. "I said to him, ‘Hey, I don’t think you meant anything racially by it.’ He said 'white boy,’ but I don’t think there was anything racial intended.


Ugh...what’s up, Doc?

These racist pieces of shite have simply abandoned all pretense of responsible behavior. They're only too happy to try and foment MORE violence based completely on "I think maybe...…."

Well yeah. The chance it was racially motivated isn't zero.

That's a stupid fricking thing to say until you actually know SOMETHING.

Agreed. When stoking violence and hatred based on non-existent evidence of racism, you ALWAYS have to think that racism played a part in everything.

What? No, you don't always have to think race played a part in it and the fact that he and others do is what is wrong with the country right now.

So lame always bring race into it. Imagine going home to your burnt house and talking to the police.

You: What the hell?! What happened to my house?
Police: Sorry to tell you, but some young punks decide to burn your house. They were the same race as you so it wasn't racially motivated.
You: What a relief officer. I feel better already.

Why is it blacks think every thing bad that goes against them is racially motivated? Maybe it's just bad luck or freakin life!

At some point saying the term "racist" will carry no meaning or no weight because it is used for every thing that happens to black people.

It sucks when a bunch of assholes destroy and burn your property. But Doc can afford it, I am sure he has insurance.

Always thinking someone doing you wrong is white and their motivation is racist...is racist. Tv and social media have fed into this theory that all white folks are racist and are just looking for an opportunity to cause harm to African Americans in some way.

The term racist is totally meaningless. What was once a serious accusation is now met with shrugged shoulders of the accused.

Look at the idiots that post here that use it. That should tell you everything you need to know about the meaning of that word.

He did it, and i hope there's some neighbor's home security camera footage that burns him. That would be a fitting end.
