in A Disturbing Trend of Fabricated Hate Crime? on The Washington Independent
Now that this story has been proven false...

This brings to mind other cases in recent years in which a fabricated black man was made a scapegoat for a crime, such as the Susan Smith or Charles Stuart case: http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=...

This time the ploy is being used not to justify a crime, but specifically to make us fear the "black man", and make us doubt voting for Barack Obama as President, even though he is clearly the best choice.
