Same thing happens in the Democratic Party bastion of Hawaii. If a local kills a haole(white man) it's just a mistake, or the haole had it coming, etc. Makes no difference if the haole was male or female. Now if a white man kills a local, I have seen the cops here scour the planet for years to bring him back to face "justice".

<<number of times that a white man has been executed for killing a black man in Texas since 1860 :0>>

That will have to be revised: make that 1, with another two coming up (although one of the three was black himself).

As to assessing the validity of that figure, and the underlying assumption that a white man has not been executed for *murdering* a black man, I would have to do some research.

<< Not one white man executed for murdering a black man in Texas... >>

No one will dispute that racism has existed for a long time in the US, both from whites against blacks, and from blacks against whites.

Hopefully, the executions of the three white men who dragged a black man to death in Texas, will send a strong message to despicable racists.

At the same time, the NATO bombing of Racist Serbia will send a strong message to despicable Slob and Dog face, and all other racist tyrants, that racist ethnic cleansing will not be tolerated by the free world!
