White man attacks elderly black man. It was considered a hate crime.

[url=http://www.cnn.com/2013/12/26/justice/texas-knockout-charge/index.html?hpt=hp_inthenews#cnn-disqus-area]Article says it was racially motivated[/url] Looks like knockout game is still going and this man is stupid for attacking someone but the majority of the game's participants are one color and when they go around knocking white people out it's not considered a hate crime. What do you think of this?

  • [quote]"The 'knockout game' may or may not be a new phenomenon, but with a few instances out of tens of thousands of assaults, it's not a trend, and media outlets shouldn't treat it as one," the news organization reports.[/quote] [quote]The suspect made a video of the attack November 24, the complaint said. In the video, he allegedly commented that "the plan is to see if I were to hit a black person, would this be nationally televised?"[/quote] The guy admitted to specifically targeting a black person in hope of being nationally televised. As far as I know, none of the suspects in any of the black on white attacks have admitted to any motivation based on race.
