Two British tourists holidaying in Florida begged for their lives with their trousers pulled down before they were mercilessly shot dead, a court has heard. Shawn Tyson, who turned 17 on Monday, is said to have murdered James Cooper, 25, and James Kouzaris, 24, after they drunkenly stumbled into the rundown Newtown neighbourhood of Sarasota. He allegedly forced the terrified pair to pull down their trousers before firing a volley of shots. Accused: Shawn Tyson is on trial for the murders of British tourists James Cooper and James Kouzaris Tyson is accused of going to rob the best friends in April 2011, and then killing them when they said they did not have any money.

Tyson faces a life sentence if convicted, but will not face the death penalty because of his age. The court in Sarasota heard how the two British holidaymakers were dining and drinking in the city's downtown with Cooper's parents on the night of April 15.

Why not the outrage with this murder? Where is Sharpton and Jackson?

There is a demonstration here in St. Louis today with the protester's wearing "hoodies" marching to city hall. This has the making of a violent summer coupled with Obama playing the race card.

Basically the Democratic party consists of 2/3 racists, we disguise it by calling them “civil rights” activists and voters concerned with civil rights and equality, but they are in fact racists. That is why the protection racket known as the Democratic party and their operatives in the media are hyping any and all incidents with racial hysteria.

I do believe in my fellow man to some extent and do think there are civil rights activists today although they have nothing on those from the past. The rest are opportunists and racists however. Just slightly disagreeing with you.

Violence is up. Those who say otherwise are not exactly telling the truth (imho).

To be fair, they should have made him wear a hoodie into court.

Were it my family members, I would have to pay a lot of money to someone on the inside to make this guys life in the pen a living hell.

If the skin colors here were reversed this would be splashed all over the MSM. Ditto for the Christian/Newsome murders and the elderly OK couple along with countless others.

Based upon this story alone, it appears that inner-city, gang-banging black trumps drunk, Anglo gay on the MSM oppressed minority meter.

I don’t see the media stirring the pot trying to do an e-lynching on these two Black fellows. But if the tables were turned it would happen in a flash!

Lately, the only semi-objective reporting on many of these 'types' of stories is coming from the UK/Pravda/etc.

The irony is breathtaking.

He looks real intelligent, doesn’t he.

The trial is probably the first time in his life he’s worn a tie.

Blacks feel inferior because the highest cause of death of young blacks is murder BY OTHER BLACKS.

They fear if the white community knew how violent and horrible blacks were with each other we would stop feeling white guilt. Lots of benefits come from liberal elites feeling ‘guilty’. Then again, liberal elites stay in power when black anger is directed at middle class whites.

Looking closely at this - the ONLY people benefiting from this system are liberal elites ... and they know what they’re doing. Here’s a link to elites talking to each other when they don’t know a conservative is in the room:

No doubt .. dead eyes/dead conscience.

However, a big mistake a lotta these braindead thugs do/will make is that for all their smirks/slouches etc,
there are plenty of smiling 'nice' guys who'll put a hole where their face used to be at the precise instant the zombie thought he'd found another 'victim'.

Look for that scenario to play out with increasing frequency as this year progresses . . .

No MSM coverage, just like the horrific Wichita massacre a couple of years ago.
