It's always the same stupidity.
12 Black kids attack elderly white people playing the knockout game, it is treated as a standard assault.
3 black kids attack 1 white kid, white kid wins, white kid charged with hate crime.
Hate crimes are BS, a crime is a crime.
Case in point: Over the decade ending in 2012, local Texas law enforcement agencies reported that about 200 crimes per year were motivated by hate. Only 10 resulted in hate-crime convictions — less than one per year.

"Racism" is starting to lose its meaning as a word. These days racism means a white person doing yoga or wearing dreadlocks, not someone burning a cross in a black guy's yard. Years ago, an accusation of racism had a very serious moral implication about that person. These days, I've become more skeptical to it because it seems like anything that a white person does is considered racism, regardless of their intention. As a person above said, its like crying wolf. At some point you start to disregard it because its essentially meaningless and a whole lot of people either whining over absolutely trivial BS or its people making up hoaxes about being racist. People crave to be a victim these days. It's trendy and it ironically gives them a sort of power. That is why we are seeing a lot of fake hate crimes.
Institutions cave into these people and accommodate them even if its just a very small minority of whiners who are doing to complaining. People need to ignore them and they will go away.

Had a chick here in Louisiana named Sharmeka Moffitt. Claimed she was attacked by 3 white guys in white LSU hoodies with their faces covered. Said they wrote slurs on her car and wrote KKK on her car, ....
Smith reported to police that her vehicle had been carjacked by a black man who drove away with her sons still in it. For nine days, she made dramatic pleas on national television for their rescue and return. However, following an intensive investigation and a nationwide search, on November 3, 1994, she confessed to letting her 1990 Mazda Protegé roll into nearby John D. Long Lake,[4] drowning the boys inside
In 1992, Jesse Anderson became infamous for stabbing his wife Barbara E. Anderson thirty-seven times while in the parking lot of a T.G.I. Friday's in Milwaukee. Anderson blamed two African-American men for attacking him and his wife, and even presented police with a Los Angeles Clippers basketball cap he claimed to have knocked off the head of one of the assailants.
The case of Charles Stuart is often cited as an example of a racial hoax.[1][13] On 23 October 1989, in Boston, Stuart and his pregnant wife Carol were driving when, according to Stuart, a black gunman forced his way into the car and shot them both, hitting Carol in the head and Stuart in the body. Carol died later that night; the baby, delivered by caesarean section, died 17 days later. Still alive, Stuart drove away and called the police, who conducted a search of Mission Hill, Boston, a mostly black area. Stuart picked out Willie Bennett, a black man, from a photo lineup. The police shifted their attention onto Stuart when Stuart's brother Matthew told them that Stuart had committed the murder,
In October 2008, Ashley Todd, a volunteer for the U.S. presidential campaign of Republican John McCain,[29] falsely claimed to have been the victim of robbery and politically motivated physical assault by a supporter of McCain's Democratic opponent Barack Obama.[30] The story broke less than two weeks before the 2008 United States presidential election on November 4. Todd later confessed to inventing the story after surveillance photos and a polygraph test were presented. She was charged with filing a false police report, and entered a probation program for first-time offenders.

Of course you read this and know that the main stream media ain't putting the brakes on for nothing as quaint as good old journalism. Nope, that would take leg work, fact checking, and questioning your basic assumptions.

Records show that the president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP told authorities someone hung a noose at her residence and she received threatening letters and intimidating phone calls.
Rachel Dolezal, a civil rights advocate in Washington state who has come under national scrutiny after her parents said she was a white woman who had been misrepresenting herself as black for years, told police she was targeted because of her work and biracial heritage.

It's impossible not to appreciate when someone shoots themselves in the leg while trying to draw on you. That's not so much grammar Nazi IMO as it is good humor.

If you need a scenario, read up on the Jena 6. You'll see how 6 black high school kids jumped one white high school kid, leaving him for dead, after school one day. You'll find out how Al Sharpton and Jesse Jacksoff flew down there and turned the story around to reflect on the oppression those black students faced for being black. All 6 had criminal records prior to assaulting the white kid, but were excused and were offered free tuition to the college of their choice. Justin Barker, the white kid, just happened to be the nearest white kid when these thugs went off on their rant.
3 black kids attack 1 white kid, white kid wins, white kid charged with hate crime.
