Had a gig in Knoxville. Was setting up gear in the day. It was hot. Went to get some drinks at local store didn't know when I crossed bridge that i was in hood. I grew up around blacks, I'm a blues player, but the hate i felt in that store was new to me. there is a reverse racism growing and it aint nice.

the way it wasn't covered by major networks isn't surprising at all.TV shows for the last 10 years haven't shown blacks as criminals. TV depicts whites as the perpetrators of all the crimes now. blacks are TV's cops and attorneys! hollywood set the standard for the media to follow.

Well, at least there still togeather upstairs.Thats still fucked up tho.

Of course its a racially motivated crime. Just think about how it would be handled if five white men did this to a young affluent black couple. Imagine that. Well it what would civil rights groups be saying then?

The murderers as LESS than animals. It's in their DNA. I hope all of them and their "wildin'" ways rot in hellfire for all of eternity. Their pure scum and deserve the very worst punishment that a society can mete out. I believe each of them should experience exactly what they were willing to hand out. I literally HATE them.

Such a spiteful, horrendous crime should not be hidden under the cloak of political correctness. Let the world know what happens in their own streets outside.

in thailand i saw on live news a group who was smuggling crystal meth,including women,all shot to death by the police with automatic weapons right there,right then.If our punishments were that gnarley here,I bet there would be far less crime because they know,WHEN they get caught,they are fuckin dead and not fed and housed with our hard earned tax dollars for the rest of their lives.These MONSTERS need to be turned into plant food.
