I have been following this story since it occurred in the week of September 11th and I still am not sure the whole truth is being told. While I think racism do exist, we are in NYC not Kentucky, diversity is pretty common. I am not sure it is very likely that bottles would be flying in the air at random black youths. Perhaps the group of white men were drunk or provoked to behave that way? I don't know, but something is missing. Even if they were walking peacefully as they said they were and bottles and slurs fly...they kept walking?? Bottles and racial slurs...and you keep walking?? Not likely to me. I would be in fight mode. Something had to have happened prior to this. While I have seen the student who was well-beaten then arrested (the condition of his face is very believeable). The details are detail enough for me. I need to hear the second by second recall of that evening.

Just like that?
