Good. Should have got the death penalty. But as USUAL the racist bastard wasn't charged with a hate crime which this OBVIOUSLY was.

What gets me is the mother. Yet another "Not my baby!" mentality.

"Thandiwe’s mother, Lynnae Thandiwe, pleaded with the judge for mercy. “He’s not the ‘Midtown Shooter,’” she said. “He’s not a monster. It’s not consistent with who Nkosi is. Nothing can be gained by putting him in jail for the rest of his life.”

She utters this despite that fact that this racist scum ADMITTED to harming these people:

“He told you he shot Brittney Watts, Lauren Garcia and Tiffany Ferenczy because he had adopted all these racist ideals,” Fulton County Assistant District Attorney Linda Dunikoski said to the jury, referring to Thandiwe’s testimony on Wednesday. “If race disorder was a [mental illness], then the Ku Klux Klan could murder and kill with impunity.”

What kind of scum supports an idiot like this? The court appointed attorney I get. That's his job, but why anyone else would come to his aid is beyond me.

That only goes one way. Sorry, but logic and reason play no role in these PC bullshit laws.

If, during his testimony, the killer said his motivation was racist ideas he had adopted, then certainly he should have been given additional time for a 'hate crime'.

I'd prefer hate crime laws be abolished, but this article makes this sound like a perfect case for them.

As long as we have NBPP and KKK and so forth, such laws will remain.

Finally someone lists the NBPP as well.
