Ok what the couple did was wrong on soooo many levels. No child should be bound with duct tape and dangled into the dumpster.  BUT what I have a problem with in the whole stroty is that they are bringing race into it. Yes the Byrd incident happened there but that doesnt make everyone who lives there a racist. I am sure that if the child was white and the same thing was going on they would have done the same thing. To bring race into something like that is crazy. But of course if the couple had been black the child white we we would have never heard of the story. I feel the case is about child endangerment and nothing more and to have 1 person go on and say it is becuase of race becuase that is where the dragging case was located tells me that Fox didnt pick a very "smart" person to do their sound bite.  That would be like saying if you live in ouston you are racist becuase there was hanging nooses reported there.

Who brought race into it? In the Chronicle, they said that race doesn't appear to be a factor, or is that what you meant..that they should have just said this couple did this to this little boy and left race totally out of it.

If that's what you meant, then I couldn't agree MORE!!

that is what i meant they should have never brought race. The lady they had on the news this morning when airing the story said that race was but she is the only one mentioned it.
