Why is it that you think the premise of your question is valid

you make a good point. political correctness is annoying, you have to watch everything you say even if there is no racist intent someone will still find it. Like the old Milk advert which called milk "the White Stuff" This was apparently racist and had to be pulled BUT IT IS WHITE, THERE JUST STATING A FACT! THERE NOT SAYING WHITE PEOPLE ARE BETTER THAN BLACK, ONLY WHITE MILK IS BETTERTHAN BLACK MILK! Rant over, thankyou

I agree! Black people claim that they are looked down upon by white people(sorry, I know not all Black people feel this) when I see them as equal, I always have done. I would never discriminate someone because of there colour/religion etc. It seems that some people use colour as a 'get out of jail card'.

taking someone to court for murder has two levels. Regular murder has one sentence, a racial murder, or hate murder of any kind (not just black and white, but gay bashing etc) has a more stringent sentence. they get longer time and less chance of parolle for a hate murder

People are afraid of offending the black man, for fear that he will bring his revenge back into our country. Where they come from It is quite normal to grab a woman off the street and rape them, whole villages slaughtered because of a disagreement and circumcision of young girls to keep them under control.
Soon, the idiots who let the black man into our country will be having this sort of behaviour on their doorstep.
But then, as white people we have our ancestors to blame for their revenge - we took their country away from them, we attempted to wipe out their cults and village life, we were the barbaric people who took control of their country.
What does goes around, comes around.

i don't believe race should come into anything,
if a white man killed a black man they will state that on the news it should just be stated that a man killed another man if they have to describe them then state their race if police haven't got them yet

This world is suffering from racism. When Israel attacks a country, it is "defending itself from terrorists" but when Lebanon defends its country from attack "it is terrorist". When tens of thousands of people are dead due to bombing by USA, it's a "mistake" but when a few dozens gets killed in bomb attack in Israel or any USA embassy worldwide, it's terrorism.
