Because quite a few of these 'racist' stories are just people screaming RACIST to get attention.

Can't wait till they get sued for slandering Paula Deen.
This show isn't even good since Detective Stabler left
[QUOTE=3picFail;41963427]Good question:
Also, have a slightly more detailed source:

It's great to see they're using the "Trayvon was an innocent bystander heartlessly gunned down by an overzealous, paranoid individual" version of the Martin Case.
They basically did this with CSI NY's final episode.
Man, I just knew NTSF:SD:SUV could get worse, and look at this, they're making an episode about #justicefoertraetrae
[QUOTE=Chernobyl426;41963750]It's not even the same, what the fuck.[/QUOTE]
"artistic license"
i.e. the thing that basically every single movie and tv show does with real life events.
this case is way too famous for its own good
I thought SVU was all about rape and stuff?
I found a leaked script online guys
[QUOTE]Travyon, played by Jaden Smith, is shown at school, raising his hand in lit class. The wise Hispanic teacher, played by Antonio Banderas, calls on him. Trayvon stand up and recites lines of Shakespeare in a hip, cool, but moving rap. As he sits down Banderas smiles and nods at him with a wise, knowing approval.
Trayvon is seen hanging out after school on the lush greens of the front school yard with his friends, featuring the girl who played Precious, plus a mix of races: a white blonde girl, a Hispanic kid, an Urkel-looking black nerd, a white kid with his hat on backwards. A veritable Burger King Kids Club.
Cut to a dark apartment, where Zimmerman, played by Luis Guzman, is doing pull-ups, with the words FEAR and HATE inked on his knuckles. He then practices shooting his empty gun at himself in a mirror. "You talking to me?" Guzman says. "You in MY neighborhood?" He then sits down to watch Birth of a Nation.
Cut to Trayvon at home, at the dinner table with his parents, played by Jamie Foxx and Maya Angelou. They discuss Tray's future plans of being an airline pilot. "It's a mighty big responsibility," Jamie Foxx says. "Having all those souls onboard." "I know," Jaden/Tray says. "I want to be like Sully some day though."
After dinner his little brother asks him if he can go get some candy and tea. Even though it's raining out, Tray agrees. In slow-mo he zips up his hoody, pulled from the dryer.
Cut to Zimmerman patrolling the streets as rain pours on his uncovered head. He does tuck-and-rolls across neighbors' lawns, pulling out his gun and pointing it at dark shadows. A cat crosses his path and he fires at it. He chuckles mercilessly.
"Keep the change," Tray says with a smile to the woman working at the convenience store. With the snacks for his brother he walks out of the store, not before passing by a magazine with Sully on the cover. Tray smiles.
Cut to Trayvon skipping down the sidewalk. A group of multicultural young maled is there smoking pot. "You wanna get high?" one asks. "No," Trayvon answers, "then I'll never be able to be a pilot." He continues to skip down the path and eventually enters the condo complex.
As Trayvon turns a corner, a sweaty and enraged Zimmerman emerges from the shadows. "Where do you think you're going, NIGGER?"
Trayvon stumbles on his words and tries to answer but is silenced when Zim cold cocks himself with the gun and starts beating himself on the back of his own head. "Help! Help! Somebody help me!" Zimmerman screams.
"Please sir, I just want to return home to my brother and finish my homework," Trayvon pleads.
"That's too bad," Zimmerman says. He then empties his entire gun cartridge into the baby-faced teen. "It looks like your dog ate it."[/QUOTE]

If you know anything about law and order, you should know there is more to it than that.

That's ridiculous. [sp]You know they wouldn't use a Hispanic actor.[/sp]

Do we need this kind of post every thread
[QUOTE=darcy010;41971729]I thought SVU was all about rape and stuff?[/QUOTE]
That's why they made it so that she thought he was going to try and rape her; they also will not use any of the same names from the real case nor will the races of all the cast exactly line up to the real life situation.
Most SVU episodes that are based on real life headlines just use it as a method of exploring stories and legal situations.
More than likely they will use it as a method of exploring the "stand your ground" law or something similar which is fictional.
There is even an SVU episode which is pretty much Chris Brown / Rihanna.
Maybe they will talk about how the case is misunderstood and how people just blindly follow anything with race and make an opinionated judgement before actually understanding what transpired.
somewhere a writer's thinking "YES TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE BRING OUT THE GOOD SCOTCH"
so we get to see Paula Deen with a shaved head kill Trayvon Martin, ok
