The two others paid while one went cray over public transportation. Not seeing much on the race angle.

  • Whether or not race played a factor is not my point. My point is that the media would be framing this as potentially a hate crime if the roles were reversed. But honestly, I do think race played a factor here. This shooter was standing up for his fellow blacks and decided to attack a white bus driver. Do you really think this shooter would have attacked the bus driver had he been black instead of white?

  • People of all races murder each other everyday, so it's rather unlikely this would be considered a hate crime if skin colors were reversed. I do feel that whatever their genes, the assailant would have still committed the shooting. He had a gun and didn't want to pay, much less be confronted by the driver for it.
