How could the news say that "The 39 year old negro leader"
They were still racist.
Why do great people get killed and bad people kill themselves?????

No problem, I truly hate people who act like they know things that they do not, especially when the result is something hurtful and offensive. It saddens me to think that there are ppl like him in this world. It is just about the way they are raised and obviously his morals are skewed. I hope that stupid comments like his do not make you stereotype "us whiteys" -in his words. The truth is there are many good people and it seems the bad ppl with the most hate and stupidity have the loudest mouths
