sure anyone who kills strangers for no reason is crazy... but to think being a black person entitles you to use your own racism as a defense.. is just plain insane.. both him and his lawyer need to be locked up forever...
so when a black person is a racist,.. it is grounds for a mental illness verdict? according to his lawyers? :shock:
The judge might have thought that was a "legal" claim,...
Thankfully the jury didn't buy that claim...
Nkosi Thandiwe shot three white females in Atlanta, the “mainstream” media went into extreme CENSORSHIP mode.
Even though this website found pictures of all three victims online, within minutes, not a single MSM outlet would even mention that the victims were white. The shooting was barely reported even in Atlanta.

About a year after this website declared that the shooting was 100% racially motivated, WSBTV Channel 2 Atlanta finally ran a blurb admitting that it was a racially motivated shooting.
Nkosi Thandiwe says he wanted to kill white people after learning to hate them in college.
A Fulton County judge will rule Thursday on whether to give the jury a third verdict option in the trial of a former Midtown security guard accused in a deadly 2011 shooting spree in Midtown.
Superior Court Judge Kelly A. Lee will hear from experts who evaluated Nkosi Thandiwe Wednesday night to determine if his mental state during the shooting spree was so disturbed that a jury could find him “not guilty by reason of insanity.”
During his testimony Wednesday, Thandiwe suggested that his reason for even purchasing the gun he used in the shootings was to enforce beliefs he’d developed about white people during his later years as an anthropology major at the University of West Georgia.
“I was trying to prove a point that Europeans had colonized the world, and as a result of that, we see a lot of evil today,” he said. “In terms of slavery, it was something that needed to be answered for. I was trying to spread the message of making white people mend.”
He said the night before the shooting, he attended a so-called “Peace Party” intended to address his concerns about helping the black community find equal footing, but two white people were there.
“I was upset,” Thandiwe said. “I was still upset Friday. I took the gun to work because I was still upset from Thursday night.”

The man found guilty of murdering a woman and wounding two others in a 2011 Midtown shooting spree was sentenced to life without parole plus 65 years in prison Thursday.
Thandiwe was convicted Thursday of fatally shooting Watts, paralyzing Lauren Garcia and injuring Tiffany Ferenczy.
Thandiwe was found guilty of all the counts against him and the sentencing phase of the trial began immediately. He was charged with murder, felony murder – causing a death during the commission of a felony – several counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, armed robbery, carjacking and gun offenses.
A juror was dismissed earlier Thursday on the fourth day of Thandiwe’s murder trial, and prosecutors told the court that his July 15, 2011 shooting spree was the result of racism, not insanity as his attorney claimed.
“If race disorder was a [mental illness], then the Ku Klux Klan could murder and kill with impunity.”
Thandiwe, 23, was accused of fatally shooting Watts in the neck in a Midtown parking deck as she left her office for lunch, then taking her car, apparently hitting her body as he pulled away, then firing into a crowd of women walking along Crescent Street as he sped off, striking Ferenczy and Garcia and leaving Garcia paralyzed from the waist down.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Kelly A. Lee, in an unusual move on Wednesday, moved to allow Thandiwe’s attorney to file an insanity defense late in the trial by ordering a mental evaluation be made overnight to determine whether the verdict options of “not guilty by reason of insanity” and “guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, but mentally ill” to the choices the jury had to consider.
Thursday morning, she added both choices to the verdict sheet the jurors would read during deliberation, and recommended to them that “if the jury determines ‘not guilty by reason of insanity’ to stop deliberations.”
“Where are the doctors?” she (the prosecutor) asked the jury. “This is kind of insulting to people who are really suffering under mental health issues. Crazy is not legally insane.”
