Why isn't this getting the same kind of coverage as Trayvon Martin? Has Obama called the family or come out publicly expressing his concern over this cold-blooded murder by a group of teens? This happened in his old stomping ground after all. If Obama had a son would he look like one of Mora's six sons or like one of the assailants? Now that we all have the hope and change Obama promised why aren't we all living in racial harmony? Seems these days the lives of some are more important than others, especially based on whether events can be used for political points. I want to know where the hordes are calling for justice for this father of twelve? Where are the rallies? Where is the outrage? Where is the liberal press fomenting the crowds to demand justice? The Huffington Post put up the AP story without comment. I guess the attitude is "boys will be boys." One old Mexican dude just isn't worth the newsprint. Well, it's early yet. Maybe the Chicago rally to City Hall will be next week after the funeral.
