Letter from Albany.
Dear Colin,
Thanks for all of the work you have been doing.
A few months ago I was assaulted pretty severely and robbed by a group of young black guys in Albany, NY.
I am one of 3 people they did this too throughout the course of a month.
I am confused at the fact that when 3 black students allegedly get attacked on a bus in Albany, the entire media reports on it including Hillary Clinton, yet when the races are reversed (and an assault actually occurs rather than a hoax), nobody hears or cares about it.
Anyway here is a link to the story.
