Back in April, Solon’s David Sorata hoped the Boston Bombers would be white. That’s because in terms of mass shootings, … “white male privilege means white men are not collectively denigrated/targeted for those shootings — even though most come at the hands of white dudes.”

Verdict
I’ve tried to ignore the Trayvon Martin story ever since the president said he looked like the son he never had. If Trayvon had been Obama’s son he would have been in school at Sidwell Academy and alive today.
George Zimmerman didn’t do much for me either. After all, he did kill an unarmed person at close range. But there were circumstances…
Standby with Snowden
Whistleblower/Traitor, depending on your point of view, Edward Snowden is paying the ultimate price in air travel hell.
