    Call me jaded and cynical but I really hope this doesn't turn out to be a damn hoax.
    Bruh. The only black firefighter writes a hate letter and burns down his own house killing his two cats....for what?

    Whites are guilty of this until proven innocent

    I hear ya... but just going off the thumbnail of the video I'm not gonna be able to give dude the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the whole "this may just be a hare-brained scheme" angle.

    I know I'm wrong for that. I accept it.

    actually white racist people tend to respect black militant people it's you nice ? they pick on... you wanna be white marry and white woman ass ? get the most hate. A lot of you ? don't know how to be around white people because you are either subconsciously afraid of them or you want to be accepted by them.

    That has not been my experience at all AND by respect i mean they will leave you the ? alone not that they have actual respect, in jamaica we have a proverb " duppy know who fi frighten" and i believe and live by it sincerely.

    Do you really think Chief Joe Sikora is going to complete the investigation?
    I mean seriously, would you trust him to the investigation without messing it up.......
