Why do they only show pictures of "white" criminals?
So they finally found they guy who was shining a laser into passing aircraft. Why don't they show his picture (I'm assuming he isn't a blonde haired blue eyed male). Anyone think I'm wrong? Why do you suppose this is the current trend?

If you look at the news, you constantly see pictures of white executives in handcuffs, but when the name is Mohammed, Xavier, or Laquinta there isn't a photo.
Thoughts?

Statistically speaking, there's only a 50% chance of a Black male parent residing with his own children. Plus, my black friends would have blamed it on thier wife, not their kid! =) Hahahahaha

The important question here is why you give a f*** what he looks like. You're starting an argument with no evidence at all. Here I'll join in:
What's up with all those arians getting free soda on TV. All I see is white kids getting drinks from the sky while they're skating and snowboarding. That's racist.

Do you work for a news agency or something?

...yeah I'M the racist.
Have you ever thought that if you're the only one who notices this racism against white suspects going on, maybe YOUR view of the news is twisted? Just a thought...since no one else here has seen what your talking about happen.
