Remember last year when a group of SEIU thugs beat up a black man at a rally and repeatedly used the "n-word"? Isn't it curious that that wasn't called a hate crime?
Prank? Joke in bad taste? What if the speaker had said "all white people, leave store now", what would the reaction be? I'd probably laugh.

WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) -- A Walmart store announcement ordering black people to leave brought chagrin and apologies Wednesday from leaders of the company, which has built a fragile trust among minority communities.
A male voice came over the public-address system Sunday evening at a store in Washington Township, in southern New Jersey, and calmly announced: "Attention, Walmart customers: All black people, leave the store now."
Shoppers in the store at the time said a manager quickly got on the public-address system and apologized for the remark. And while it was unclear whether a rogue patron or an employee was responsible for the comment, many customers expressed their anger to store management.
