At any rate, just because these FAMU students are a little "peeved" (once again, your words) and the above mentioned are coming down, why isn't this still a humanitarian issue? That you, presumably a White male, couldn't possibly be concerned with the rightful ongoing investigation of a child's death, because she happens to be Black? All I am saying is that it doesn't have to be "White Versus Black" or a racial event in this case (if I am reading correctly into what you're saying--). It could just be a community of people speaking out.

PS-How do you know what I do and do not appreciate?!
It doesn't have to be a humanitarian issue either, it could just be about the Iraq war.

Except it's not about the Iraq war.

If it's about a kid dying then leave it at that. But if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it's a duck and this duck very much looks like a racial issue given famu students, the guest list of the event, and even the quote by someone mentioning race (as opposed to baseball).

And I try to please you but I never know if you appreciate my funnies. It's OK if you don't
