the reason why i state that they could have done no wrong is because of age/gender.
sure there were some white males in there but the rest were either children or old ladies.
take a look at your grandmas or nephews what could they possibly do that could warrant that kind of beating? thats all i'm asking.
people just seem quick to shrug it off because they are white, people just assume they are automatically guilty of something that warrants being bludgeoned to death.
as for me, i'm black, originally of south african decent, i was adopted by my foster parents who were living in south africa at the time, they moved to the UK 6 years ago, mainly because of money problems, not because of the problems on the continent.
my foster mother is a white south african, and my foster father is a black south african. both now living in the UK in leeds. about 8 months ago i moved down into birmingham UK with my girl and thats where i am currently.
i have no idea who my real dad is and i know that my mother died giving birth to me, hence being orphaned at a young age.
i'm very grateful for them taking me in, thats why i get emotional when i see people being beaten to death for no reason, becuase i always feel that, that could have been my foster folks.
and i don't need any qualifications for speaking emphatically, i just need to care about innocent people dying, no matter what color their skin happens to be.
sorry ya'll had to hear all that, but this kinda thing just burns me up. it's an issue i'm very sensitive about.
