The fliers were left on cars in the area where Borsos was killed. The fliers were addressed to "White Parents," with a headline that read, "Don't Let Your Daughters Date Blacks, It Might Be A Matter Of Life And Death."

Whites are not safe from these bigots.

They are despicable.

As is racism from any racial group.

It's disturbing that bigots would use this opportunity but it's not really surprising. One of the biggest problems in the civil rights movement was the issue of interracial couples. It still drives people insane. It probably won't ever go away.

It's sad that people can't focus on the teens deaths.

I know a few people who have a problem with interracial marriages. I've had to place distance between me and them. What's sad is these same people who make a big deal of interracial marriages are married for the second or third time, having relationship problems, or are in the process of getting a divorce.

I believe it'll go away because there was a time when those in interracial marriages couldn't walk down the street hand-in-hand.

What's even sadder is how the family isn't allowed to grieve in peace.

Thats why I am all about making some mixed babies. My parents are Mexican and I only date white women, just so I can mix the races and then eventually everyone will be the same skin tone. Do your part, if you are a dude, get as many women of other races pregnant, if you are a chick, open the doors to men of other races. If you are gay, do whatever you do.

There is some truth, I only date white women but not because of the baby thing.

Not sure if this is intended for me, but I am far from racist, actually very much the opposite.

I have one black friend, proof that I am not a racist, one Japanese friend, he may be Chinese I cant tell the difference. I used to have a Cuban friend but found out he doesnt like Puerto Ricans so I cant hangout with him anymore. I dont like Puerto Ricans but thats because they rape women at Puerto Rican pride parades. I like Albinos though, dont care what their backgrounds are, I just think they look awesome. All proof that I am not racist. Indians, red dot not feathers have an odd smell, I think its the curry, maybe the shower rituals, I will hang out with them but not when its really hot. Mexicans steal, so I will hang out with them but not go shopping or to a mall with them. I am kidding of course about all of this, except for the Mexicans, they do steal.

I fight racism everyday, I am the only "ethnic" person where I work, and I fight racism by not being or doing any of the stereotypical things. I dont sag my pants, I dont have a strong accent, I dont make up words, I have a degree, I am a professional adult, with no children. I pay all my bills and have never been to jail. I will call a racist out in a heartbeat though, and so should you.

Enjoy yourselves and dont take life so serious. You only get one, well unless you believe in reincarnation.

Anybody got a 17-yr old relative whose murder they'd be willing to joke about?

He died too. So there are two people dead. Obviously he needed help.

I wasn't trying to be right or trying to prove anything. Somebody needs to be helping people in their teens and twenties. There are a lot of people who kill a current or former lover. Females, males, blacks, whites, Latinos, interracial couples, etc.

I don't think this happened because he was black and she was white. Instead of focusing on murder / suicide deaths though, those idiots focused on race. It's time to get over that and focus on the real problems.
