I agree with all you say. Of course this is an entirely separate matter. Practically, an innocent person dies whatever the case, and so the penalty should be the same. It is unfortunate that people are distracted by history such that many believe it acceptable to allow injustices today on the basis of injustices of yesterday. Some people think this only fair, but it is completely in error, serving to do little but exacerbate the fears and anger already extant between the races. (The solution here is to once and for all time begin to execute justice properly, according to principle. By this same principle our country should extend effective measures to Blacks (and all others) to help counter the effects of historical oppression.)

Philosophically, racial killing represents an almost immovable threat to all races; and so instead of longing for the media not to pay much attention to them, we should want it to give them quite a good deal of attention.
