Food truck workers attacked by ‘rich’ guys hurling racial slurs: ‘Dude, I’m totally getting away with this’
“He pretty much singled me out for being black by using a word we’re all familiar with,” said Gibbons, who was serving barbecue from this new truck for just the second time.
“He kept using the N-word,” said Gibbons, owner of Big T’s Barbeque. “He kept saying that I didn’t really know what it was like to be black.”
He refused to serve the men, who he said appeared to be drunk, and one of them punched Gibbons’ friend in the face.
A fight broke out between the unruly customers and Gibbons and two friends helping him serve food.........continued----->Food truck workers attacked by ‘rich’ guys hurling racial slurs: ‘Dude, I’m totally getting away with this’
from the linked article: "No arrests have been made, but police said they have strong leads in the case – which is being investigated as a possible hate crime."
So, the police are actively searching for the perps, with strong leads, and intent to process this as a hate crime. I don't see anybody making excuses for their criminality, or calling for the arrest of the food truck worker for asaulting the guys fists with his face, so I am not clear what the travesty or double standard is that you think you are pointing out.

This thread won't get more than 30 posts about the subject at hand. That's the point.
