I haven't put any spin on your words either, btw.
None at all.

Cool... but there is already a media storm
around this, and PimpTrick was pointing out
how different the coverage appears.
In elaborating on your point that it's not covered
when the victims are white, you said...
"All im responding to is the notion that "oh now that it's a white person, let's see them suddenly care"
and
"it would be faulty to assume its going to be treated as a bigger deal when a white person gets killed."
PimpTrick didn't say ANY of that, so he's either
proxy for someone else, your misread what he typed,
your point was a diversion, or some combination of the 3.
That's not me sparring... that's just logical.

Not sure what "other shit" you're talking about,
but I agree with that paragraph for the most part.
