    Sounds like retaliation for something that happened earlier in the race. Certainly not condoning this action, but if there was an earlier one not caught on video then it's likely both kids will face charges.

    seriously? Making up a story to justify an unprovoked assault? Patronizing the criminal is racist

    You're so blinded by your hatred.

    I actually went online and looked at other stories from actual media sources, which indicated that there may have been an earlier confrontation or physical exchange between the two. So as I said, both maybe facing charges of some sort. At no point did I say that was not assault.

    I see that I did not mention that in the first post. But no, I didn't just make s*** up.

    Frankie Lymon was so talented, but died of a heroin overdose at 25. And yeah, the Philly kids on American Bandstand were about as white as a bar of Ivory soap back then. They're also more interested in the Beech Nut chewing gum ("it's Flavor-IFIC," which was the reason for the IFIC buttons).
