Sharpton would have booked his private jet within hours. All networks would be reporting live from the scene about the state of race relations. The DOJ would send dozens of agents and lawyers to investigate.
But no, nothing to see here. Move along, people. Move along.

Or, you know, it could be that it IS being investigated by the FBI as a hate crime, an arrest has already been made and the guy's buddy appears to lying through his teeth about how many assailants were involved. Compare that to Michael Brown's body being left in the street for four hours and the cop not even bothering to fill out an incident report about killing him.
