I see every person as the same i would like every race to be equal but that will not happen while people are punished and treated differently for a crime/doing somthing wrong just because the victim was of a different race.

Racism is insidious and nasty and needs to be stopped.
Yes it's bad to bully anyone, any type of bullying is bad and should never be condoned. Racism though is taking it a step too far, as Becky said, it is then not just against one person, but a whole race or culture...not on.

But i stand by my point that race in cases like this and crime should not matter as if everyone is to be equal we need to stop putting more divisions in place, and the media need to report things correctly
