at least mention publicly the slaying of Antonio West (Santiago) a 13 month old in Georgia as he did for Trayvon Martin.

Created by D.L. on July 24, 2013

A petition to ask President Obama to make a public statement about or to offer condolences publicly to the family of Antionio West-Santiago, a 13 month old who was shot in the head while in a stroller being pushed by his mother in Brunswick, Georgia by two African-American teens who intended on robbing Antonio's mother. When she stated that she had no money, they were both shot. This act was horrific and more disgusting and senseless than the shooting of Trayvon Martin. The President felt it necessary to make a public statement and send condolences to Mr. Martin's family. Where is the call for justice, public outcry and constant media attention for Antonio? Black on Black and Black on White crime is ignored in this country, but White on Black crime is considered hate/racially motivated?
