If it fits the elements of a hate crime it should be treated as such. Hate crimes should apply equally for all races, and I have no reason to think it will be treated differently.

I hope the victim makes a speedy recovery and justice is served.

Didnt catch the timeline...We ARE talking about teenagers here though so I'm not entirely sure the isn't any connection at all. Both stories happened in Missouri...

When the first one happened these kids would have been 13. I'm thinking it's doubtful. Also, the kids went to school together. I'd bet they had previous altercations that escalated.

If it had been the other way around racist Sharpton and Jackson would be all of the news talking about it.

I am sure Jesse and Al will be on this quickly to defend the actions of the young men who were provoked to action by the racist acts of that white kid.

I don't believe two black teens did this, this is too reminiscent of stories that people make up to hide the truth, like that nutcase who threw acid all over her own face and claimed some black women did it - this kid was either messing with gasoline and a lighter after he'd been told not to and burned himself and was afraid to admit it, or some similar story. Everyone always wants to blame blacks, but this is ridiculous. And a father also the victim of a hate crime? Puhleese -

Might be interesting to watch as the story unfolds. We have one side. Just waiting for the other two sides now.

It's odd how you can tell who the black folks are at the bottom of the article in the comments.
