Most of us have limited resources and the government generally will select what it's willing to expend resources on depending on who will be helped the most.If interracial murder is important to you, then both the white and black victims of interracial violence should get equal attention and sympathy.
But they don't.
White people in America have always had more resources and more support systems than Black people. That doesn't mean that what happens to them is less important and you're presumptuous to believe that you know what motivates the decisions I make.
The murders are one thing and for the record I don't do defense work. What is equally problematic for the Black communities though is the lack of law enforcement and criminal justice assistance specifically addressing the Black people who were terrorized (a crime) and run out of the country (another crime). If any of the remaining residents, simply confiscated for themselves what was left behind, that's another crime but if no one bothered to address the most egregious of the lot (the murder by lynching) is anyone surprised that no one was going to address the lesser but just as overall damaging crimes?
