If you don’t know who Joshua Chellew is, that’s not your fault. His murder isn’t national news because nobody would ever mistake him for Obama’s son, but you can catch up on the story here.
This is Chellew:

And these are the guys who beat him up and chased him into traffic, where he was struck by a car and killed:

So you can quit reading now if you’d like, because the rest of this post is “racist.”
The latest, from WXIA-TV in Atlanta:
MARIETTA, Ga. — The four teens accused in the death of 36-year-old Joshua Chellew of Smyrna appeared in a Cobb County courtroom Tuesday morning.
The four – Antonio Pass, Johnathan Anthony and Kemonta Bonds, all 18, along with Jekari Strozier, 19 – are charged with felony murder, aggravated assault and violations of the Georgia Street Gang Act in connection with the death of Chellew. Police said the four beat Chellew and chased him into traffic near a Chevron station on Mableton Parkway in south Cobb County during the early morning hours of June 30, where Chellew was struck by a car and killed…
Dobson says that despite media attention to the race of the victim versus that of the four teens, that it was a stretch to compare this to the Trayvon Martin case, and that it is “too early to speculate about race.” Chellew was white, while the four teens are black.
Well, of course it’s a stretch to compare the two cases. George Zimmerman was getting his head pounded into a sidewalk, so he shot his attacker in self-defense. Whereas Joshua Chellew was beaten by these four men, who would be called “children” by their credulous defenders if they were a year or two younger. Then they chased him into the street to be struck and killed.
One was a clear-cut case of self-defense that was transformed into a racist assassination by the President of the United States and his eager minions in the media. The other was a senseless gang killing of a white man by four black men. It’s absolutely a stretch to compare the two cases. For exactly the opposite reason Dobson thinks.
And yet one has been a media firestorm for a year and a half, and the other is just another local news story. Because it’s not useful to those in power and their sycophants.
So shut up, racist.
