Actually, you just proved my point. No one in this thread gave a statement that meets the definition of sympathy. Therefore, sympathy was the wrong word to use in your attack on those who choose to give an opinion that you don't like.
As for the lawyer thing...hey, whatever works. But like I said before, there is NO justification for murder. Its always wrong.

Your listing the definitions of empathy and sympathy had what to do with a point exactly?
1 a : an affinity, association, or relationship between persons or things wherein whatever affects one similarly affects the other.
These two statements qualify as sympathy. One can possibly say empathy if you could see yourself killing or having killed a white person:
"I understand his desperation and where he's coming from"
"Many of these things have happened to me, and lots of other minorities in this country...I do understand his sense of frustration in a world that treats many people as second class citizens."
