Here in the UK, a black 18-year-old A-Level student was attacked by a gang of up to four white men in Huyton, Merseyside, on Friday.
Anthony Walker died in hospital after being bludgeoned with an axe.
"Merseyside Police said that as the couple waited for a bus outside the Huyton Park pub with Mr Walker's 17-year-old cousin they were subjected to a "torrent of racial abuse" by a man in his 20s wearing a hooded top.
They did not retaliate to the abuse and left to find another bus stop.
But they were followed and, as they walked through a park, they were attacked by a gang of up to four men.
Mr Walker's girlfriend and cousin ran to get help. When they returned Anthony was slumped on the ground with massive head injuries.
An axe was found embedded in his skull.
He was taken to Whiston Hospital and later transferred to Walton neurological centre where he died at 0525 BST on Saturday."
After reading about Anthony on the BBC site, I have to say that I am raging. F*cking raging. You only have to get one look at that photograph of Anthony Walker to know that he was one of the good guys. Why is it always the innocents that have to pay? I can't write any more just now.
