"The only identifying information for responding CHP was a newer model white Mercedes GLA 250 with tinted windows and a dealer rear plate driven by a white male in his early 20s to 30s with short dirty-brown hair."


The local news is getting better at putting a racial description for violent suspects. A step in the right direction?

It's easy to describe the white guy and there's no taboos associated with identifying a cracker. If homeboy needs describing the media often forgets to mention that the homeboy is a near. (Blazing saddle reference)

reporting the race of the subject is only allowable if they are White. Anyone 'of color' is protected from the prejudicial reporting of their race. Heck Tracy, you know that. lol

IDing a white guy means nothing when they omit that the perp is black. Always one-sided.
