Every time I start to forget how racist Sharpton and Jackson are, they stick their noses into something like this and I remember.

Were the white kids extremely racist? Hell yes. Did they do something extremely despicable? Hell yes. Did that warrant a 6 on 1 "fight"? No way.

What lessons are these parents and leaders teaching their children? Responding to racism with violence is okay? Martin Luther King, Jr. would be disappointed to see the lack of progress some areas of the country have made to this point in history.
