I wonder what would have happened if the guy had beaten up some white wannabe rapping gansta punk with his pants halfway down his a$$ calling him a "white trash wigger"?
Would that be considered a "hate crime"?report abuse

Using racial slurs no matter what the eason is WRONG. How would you feel, if you were beat up by an afro american and he used racial slurs such as white, white trash or honkie? I doubt very much you wouldl ike it, no mtter the reason.report abuse

He's not racist.

He's equal opportunity. He would have beat up the woman too.

It'll be interesting to see people try to defend this one.

"He wasn't using racial slurs and punching and kicking him because he was black, he used racial slurs and punched and kicked him because he disagreed with him politically."report abuse
