It isn't a joking matter when anyone is killed. It doen't matter what race or creed you are. It isn't funny. We as human beings have lost respect for almost any and everything in this world. It is a same. As older people we need to remember they are our future and we need to start teaching respect again. We are getting older and so are they and things arn't going to change until we start changing them.

It does not matter. They will ALWAYS be offended by something, even minor, insignificant things. Let 'em get offended by something more important; fatherless children, "fathers" with 25-30 spawn, hoopdees with their underwear showing & jeans near their knees, dog-fighters, thieves, etc..... What weak, delicate "people".

Looking this video, seems it was more white teenagers mocking that poor boy. But reality, i talked to a lot of teenagers and they say black teenagers are so stupid. Walk around with their pants hanging down below their ass, getting high, want to be a rap star, steal for what they want, or killing for it, gang thugs, think they are tough when they are really stupid, cool having a rap sheet, black on black crime is ridiculous. This new generation is getting out of hand. Senseless killings. Sad.
