The fact that one actually went to a hospital for his injuries, which were verified, and the other claims he was severely beaten, yet has no hospital statement to back him up. Don't even consider skin color here, are you telling me one of these doesn't sound more credible than the other?

The fact that BOTH assaults occured is indisputable, not sure why you don't find the first case "credible" when the DA himself eventually, and begrudgingly, charged the white attackers........only with a drastic difference in degree....that is the entire point.
In one case, the whites attacking blacks get charged with "simple assault"....up to 6 months probation.
In the other case, the blacks attacking whites get charged with felony aggravated assault and attempted murder....up to 15 years in prison.
Tell me you think that is fair, and then I won't bother continuing the discussion.

As for the shotgun thing again, this is exactly why I said it was cloudy. All we have to go one are eye witness testimony, which, by the way, lean heavily my way.

44 eyewitness reports from the beating not being able to agree on the identity of the attackers, only their skin color....that would lean heavily the other way...no?
