Politicians and the media attempt to turn the shooting of a teenager in Florida into a hate crime by Jay Knott (04/08/12) ⇌ (Exaggeration of Hate Crimes)
I don't know whether the shooting of Trayvon Martin in Florida on February 26 was justified, or legal. But I do know there is no evidence of a racial motive.
Nevertheless, an enormous effort is being made to convince us that the tragedy has a racial component, by politicians, including presidents, past and present, journalists, and sportsmen.
