If the "facts" were as you stated them, SYG will never apply. Thus, there will be a guilty verdict and you need not worry about any political crusade.

All very interesting facts. Pretty damning evidence if all are accurate as described too.

But the list is unnecessarily long truth be told. All that need be said was;

Fact 1: A black was killed

Fact 2: A white was involved

Fact 3: A gun was used.


Same ending, see?

Because as we both KNOW, a 17 year old black being killed and his death involving a gun is, sadly, not exactly the type of news that stays in the national media from the night it happens until months later when the case is resolved, is it now?

What makes SOME of these instances so different you reckon?
