Touré: Blaming Delbert Belton and Chris Lane deaths on racism part of Right's 'vile new tactic'

MSNBC’s Touré is often a bundle of misinformation and twisted logic, and his latest commentary is no different:

In the video, Touré laments those on “the Right” who dare insinuate that the killings of Chris Lane or Delbert Belton were racial to anywhere near the degree that Touré claims the Trayvon Martin shooting was racially motivated, and he also heroically takes on several straw men along the way.

This rebuttal tears down Touré’s argument brick by brick, foundation and all:

However, a fellow MSNBC host agrees with Touré (what a shock):

Some great points here — @Toure: How about facts and data instead of signal-jamming on race and violence? http://t.co/FAIujp84z5 @msnbc

Of course, this is also the same person who referred to Detroit as “America’s most libertarian city,” so take it for what it’s worth.
