Do I really have to go into why it would make me defensive? Animals plays into the whole "sub-human" stereotype of black people.
They're scum, they're inhuman... That was never up for debate. What I guess you find quizzical is my reaction. I gave my reason, it's up to you to accept it.

There's an easy way to avoid that; quit thinking people are saying things to try and offend others.
What these scum did was evil, I don't care what race they were or the race of those they did it to. Race had absolutely nothing to do with my opinion that they acted like a bunch of animals.
I can assure you that when I post, I am not someone who's going to go back and try and consider all the possible ways someone might try and misread what I've said or all the possible ways someone could find offense. I'm just never going to do that because I already know it's not what I was doing in the first place. If someone wants to read stereotypes or whatever into anything I say, that's their problem.
You're among friends here. No one cares what race you are or is here to make jokes at your expense. We aren't gator. Believe it, Kharis, just believe it, because it's true. Really, it is. Just ask around. Others will tell you the same thing.
