How did the media turn this into a white vs. black issue? A Hispanic guy killed a black kid. I know the last name is associated with white people, but that dude has more Hispanic in him than anything. How has this become a white vs. black issue? I don't get it...

Because the media does whatever the **** they want, and no one ever calls them on it.
CNN, for example, only showed photos of 12 year old TM - trying to spin a web that the kid was young, innocent, etc.
The 17 year old TM that started bashing GZ's head into the sidewalk was built like a man, had tattoos, etc.
Why they were trying to build sympathy, I don't know. Cases need to be tried in a court of law, not in the media.
