If the Connecticut school shooting occurred within a poor African American School of low social class.......?
Would it get the news coverage and media attention that it's getting now. Would people care the same as they are in the Connecticut school shooting?

Of course it would... stop trying to be a race baiter. Not likely to happen though as everyone knows that statistically black serial killers are extremely rare....Young white males are the usual culprits of these crimes...

No, people would be less interested in a bunch of little black kids getting shot. The public is interested in blonde, blue-eyed angels getting massacred, not black kids.

No. The students would pull their own pieces and blow the shooter away.

WTF has the colour of a kids skin got to do with it. They were innocent children full of hope for the future the same as black American kids are. What a nasty thing to say at such a time as this.

of course it would, and depending on the news source, if the shooter was still white, it would be considered a hate crime.

Nope. No one cares when blacks perish, period. In their eyes, cute white children are harmless and blacks are dirty criminals from birth.

Most folks would understand what you are saying, but let's get real hey? The CT shooting is in a prosperous upper class American Town, the tone of the reporting is going to be very different from that of a shooting in a working class district for many reasons. Already people are showing considerations and sympathies to the bereaved you would not find in another situation involving lower class people. For example a photograph that has been widely reproduced around the world showing a distraught mother weeping as she was informed her child was dead has drawn many complaints from people anxious to protect her privacy at this tragic time; 'this photograph is exploitation, not news' said one man, no one batted an eyelid when a similar photograph was taken at Dunblain. Like it or not, people care 'more' for the respectable people of CT than other people in similar tragedies, that's life.
