[WhoIsNumberNone]

A fourteen-year-old latino teenager was shot in an apparent hate crime in Indiana. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Investigators in Indianapolis said that two shootings over the weekend that targeted the Latino community could be connected.

Brian Zaragoza, 14, told WXIN that he was walking home from the grocery store when he heard someone drive by yelling a racial slur — and that’s when he felt a sharp pain in his side...

According to WXIN, a second shooting took place at a taco stand just minutes before Zaragoza was shot. The suspects reportedly aimed at an SUV with an adult and two children inside, but no one was injured.

Zaragoza’s description of the shooter’s vehicle was said to match the vehicle that targeted the taco stand. Investigators also recovered .40 caliber shell casings from both crime scenes.”*

1. No.

Letting cops shoot black people willy nilly is fuelling hate crimes.

Between the cattle ranch thing and these police shootings, the crazies are very emboldened now.

2. This is pretty well established

with hate radio fueling the near genocides in both Bosnia and Rwanda.

Some morons only need some sort of quasi official approval, and hate radio or TV will do that, to act out their fantasies of slaughtering people they're been given permission to hate.

Hate sells. It sells really well. Then it pulls all the violent nutbars out from under their rocks.
