However, I would point out the original post I made was a statement, not about the crime, but about the media coverage of it.

Wasn't it the sheriff who said he was white? His skin was white and his eyes look lite.....maybe even blue........but you're thinking that nose and those lips.........they don't look white. AMIRITE?

See this is why my proposal for determining race is important. We must know how white we are. There has to be a formula for making such a categorization.

Lets start with you. How many quarters white are you? Are all your features racially white........or is there some ambiguity with some of those features? Would anyone ever mistake you for another race? Let me know what the answers are.............

Here's an example of why this is important:

Paula Patton and her son:



See I would think of her as black but her son looks white to me. What do you think?

I think we need to break down the quarters for each of them.
