What is amazing to me is the lack of conscious of the primitive. I doubt that the primitive has any emotions, conscious and intelligent. They seem to have predatory instincts that animals have. They are sly, like foxes, but not intelligent, they will kill their own young like reptiles. I am at a complete loss. Their depravity has no bounds.

The man accused of raping and killing a 16-year-old Sparks high school student was in court Thursday to enter a plea in a different case on separate charges: that he raped a University of Nevada, Reno student two weeks before the slaying.
Tamir Hamilton, 28, of Sparks, stood silent during his arraignment in Washoe District Court on the burglary and sexual assault charges, so Judge Connie Steinheimer entered a not guilty plea for him. She tentatively set April 30 for his trial on the separate charges, and scheduled a status hearing Jan. 23.
Hamilton's preliminary hearing on the murder charge is Feb. 2 in Sparks Justice Court, said Deputy District Attorney Luke Prengaman. Hamilton is being held in the Washoe County Jail without bail.
Holly Jean Quick, a Spanish Springs High School sophomore, was found dead in her bedroom by her mother early in the morning of Sept. 15. She had been sexually assaulted.
Hamilton, an acquaintance of the Quick family, was arrested on suspicion following a tip to police. In an interview with police, Hamilton said he had been drunk and was on cocaine the night before Quick was found dead and had visited Quick at her apartment. He said he could only remember talking with Quick on her bed, according to court documents.
Hamilton also was indicted Dec. 6 by a Washoe County grand jury on burglary and sexual assault charges for allegedly attacking a 20-year-old UNR student Aug. 31.
Police later found DNA evidence on bloody clothes in a garbage can outside Hamilton's Spanish Springs home that linked him to both crimes, court records show.
The victims are white and the predator is black.
