"Home grown" Anglo-Saxon thuggery committing the majority of all crime in America! No doubt!
You ever read the comments on a story with a non-white criminal? Don't see any concerns about the victims on those stories either, nor any holier then thou comments from you.
Why is that?
Probably because I'm not an unhinged looney loser left-wing wackadoddle nutcase who feels compelled to make everything about race.
Why is it that unhinged looney loser left-wing wackadoddle nutcases ALWAYS revert to making everything about race?
And since you feel obligated to publicly defend overt racism by one of your fellow unhinged loonie loser left-wing wackadoodle nutcases, one can only derive that you're also a unhinged looney loser left-wing wackadoddle nutcase yourself.
