NY Daily News gets more attention

I would have said they "went full retard," but that would imply they ever leave the condition of full retard. And they do not. They're just publishing another story to get page clicks, like they always do.

This is completely and utterly disgusting.

On Monday, Westin Wood, a resident of Tulsa, Oklahoma, posted a video of himself and several white friends, pouring gasoline on a Kevin Durant jersey before unloading rounds of ammunition into it with their assault rifles - riddling it with bullets and setting it on fire .

Maybe you don't know the history of lynching in America. Maybe you don't know the history of lynching in Oklahoma. Maybe you don't know the history of lynching in Tulsa, Oklahoma, but make no mistake about it - to me, this appears to be a familiar assertion of white supremacist power, anger and violence. Hundreds and hundreds of the 4,075 documented cases of African-Americans being lynched in America included them being set on fire and shot in a manner very similar to this video.

White friends! Did you catch that? They were white! The white people are rising up! It's a race war!

I don't see racism.  I see some losers who take basketball far too seriously.

But they were white! I could understand your lack of concern if these were quiet, peaceful persons of color, but THESE ARE WHITE PEOPLE! WHITE PEOPLE! DON'T YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT? WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU PEOPLE?!

He is linking this internet video to events from 100 years ago.  That is a bit of a stretch.

I see what you did there.  Now excuse me while I whip this out.

Interesting that I live here in Tulsa and never heard anything about this. 

Even funnier is how is this any different than people burning Bush in effigy back when he was President?

People seem to forget about all of that.
