I'm not going to split hairs w/ semantics. Whatever you want to believe is your opinion.

Answer 6

Semantic rapist.

Answer 7

Yes it has.

Answer 8

Three teenage girls died in a set church fire. Yes.

Answer 9

Hooo ooooohhhh, yes.

Answer 10

No. But it has FUELED enough anger in some people to kill. Feelings don't actually MAKE a person do something.

UPDATE: After reading all of your answers I have come to the conclusion that you people are incredibly stupid. "But my FEELINGS made me do it!" If racism KILLS [as almost all of you declare as FACT] then ALL RACISTS WOULD KILL. But they don't. So maybe... it's something else. Wrap your little pea brains around that idea.
