... hence my assumption that the group (who seems to have been largely black) who attacked the college students did it because of race-based hatred. It's a guess, but I can't think of another reason for this to happen.
It may be partly about race hatred, but I suspect these kids just really enjoy beating on people. It's fun for them, safe to do in large groups, and they know the Temple students won't organize and retaliate.
Nowhere in your link does it mention race, much less that everyone involved was black. I've looked at a few articles on this, and didn't see any of them mention race.
You'd be surprised at the disgusting things that happen in many of those towns. I've seen it first hand when I lived in the midwest for a year. Crime, prostitution, child abuse, you name it its happening in all these "white" "hillbilly" towns.
So, please check your hypocrisy at the door.
I have never seen poor white people act like hood rats and wreck their neighbourhood.

Well, my ancestors sure did. They were whiter than snow. They tell all sorts of stories. One of my relatives tried to lynch another. His other relatives found him hanging in the barn by his neck. He survived. One of my relatives whipped another so that his pants split open and he "didn't even move, but just started screaming." That relative with the split-pants later threw a pitchfork at the relative who split his pants. It missed, but it stuck in the wall. One of my relatives was a huge guy who would pull a farming plow himself. He'd beat the heck out of anyone he didn't like. My uncle tells a story of how his uncle was in a car, with his foot holding a shotgun down and saying "you're not shooting (person X) in town. I heard another story about how some old relative had a husband who would get drunk too much, so she smacked his legs with a broomstick while he was sleeping so he couldn't walk the next day.
I think the only thing that kept any of those people alive was...I'm not really sure, actually. Luck?
