Time for another beer summit?

In all seriousness, the NAACP would do themselves a world of good if they made a public statement offering condolences to the victims, and added that if racism was indeed the trigger for this man's crimes, that violence is never the answer.

We'll probably never know for sure if this guy ever filed a complaint with his union or the employer. For the moment, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, and suggest that the NAACP offer to set up their own "whistleblower" hotline and offer it to anyone that feels that their complaints about racism on the job or in school are going unanswered.

...a union official said Thornton had not filed a complaint of racism with the union or any government agency.

Your whole commentary is excellent! But what's the chances of this being twisted all around the other way?
