2. Too bad there isn't any video. That would shame those racists in technicolor YouTube.

3. That is too bad. Because none of them will admit what they did because
they know it was wrong. They are pathetic.

4. You're assuming those people
are capable of shame and/or have consciences.

5. I used to coach at an inner city Catholic School and we didn't
have any white students on our volleyball team. If that had happened while I was coaching I would have pulled everyone of my girls off the court and registered a complaint immediately. I would not have resumed play until I had the head of the athletic department there to monitor the game.

In the mean time I bet some parents would be texting, taking pics and catching it on camera.

8. What happened to...

Innocent until proven guilty? Since there is no video or audio yet, assuming guilt is a bit early.
