What is strange is that on page 5 of the NY Post there is this sentence from the original article that didn't make it on the on-line article:

"While the victims were all white and the suspects black, police did not believe the crime was racially motivated."

I have a question: how can the police even say that to the press at this time? They have not even apprehended and questioned one of the suspects? Moreover, how can they say that a crime by 4 blacks on 4 whites had not a modicum of racial bias?

That's a great question. I've noticed that this is the way the media and many police depts. handle it when the crime doesn't fit the 'hate crimes agenda'. When it does fit, all hell breaks loose.

I think that something has to be said in order for the cops to infer motivation; that is, if they said "Gimme your money" it's not racially motivated. If they said "Gimme your money you honky b*tch" then it might be considered that.

I report, you decide.
