It's racist because the black people who are outraged have never been outraged when it concerned a white teen. They are only interested when "one of their own" dies, which is almost to the description, racism.
@ NOBLE, put the word "the" in the first sentence. When THE black people. There are plenty of black people, and all races, interested in all forms of current affairs and were as outraged when say Fritzl was revealed. But these people posting this shit on twitter have never had any concern when it related to a white teen, so why is it all of a sudden such a travesty now? How is this even a race thing in any way?

Read what I wrote again, and if you don't realize that you're making blanket statements, and how ignorant as fuck that sounds, then you're stupid as hell. DO YOU KNOW EVERY BLACK PERSON PERSONALLY? Even the people on twitter that you mention who are outraged, DO YOU KNOW EVERYTHING THEY'VE EVER BEEN OUTRAGED ABOUT? Have you been with them their whole lives? Maybe that's all you've seen personally, but how wise is it to assume that the world is limited to what you've personally experienced? Until you've met every white person, every black person, every Indian person, it is ignorant as hell to make statements like "all black people are this" or "all white people or Indian people" are that. Smh!
