I am sure you must have heard about this ‘bias’/hate crime by now.  It is all over the news.  The students fellow classmates seem to think this is OK and he ‘got what was coming to him, and deserves more punishment.‘  The story is that the white kid told a Marshall Islander student (Island in the South Pacific) to ‘go back to Marshall Island.’  So, telling someone to go to Marshall Island is racism and the Islander who was supposedly ‘bullied’ had every right to beat this kid until he was almost dead.  Now, the father is worried about being called a racist, while his son is fighting for his life.  Sickening.

You really need to see the comments made, (mine are here, below) and go to the site-page yourself: Right here it is public, with facebook grafted in to the comment section.

The kid made a racist comment against who and what race?? And now is fighting for his life? The crime here is this beating. Calling names happens in school. Almost murdering people is NOT supposed to happen in a school.

i am prestons dad. i am not a racist nor is his mom. i can only assume u jumped to that conclusion bcuz u saw a personal pic of me standing by a ww2 exibit while explaining to my kids how their family helped defeat the nazis. i am bald and white & understand that people with tinybrains might prejudge me 4 that. what i cant understand is a worthless excuse 4 a human saying that any child deserves to b nearly beat to death bcuz of a schoolyard shove or a hurtfull word. u are young and ignorant & hope some day u may develope some sense of humanity

John William Barker JOHN: My prayers ARE with you. LISTEN UP: the media and people will *ALWAYS* point to ‘thats racist’ in a crime of black on white. Look at what happened with that Trayvon incident. What happened here is a TOTAL ASSAULT on your boy. **DO NOT LISTEN** to the race-hustling NO MATTER WHO the accusers are; children OR adults, OR media. AGAIN: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU. YOU MUST press this as a racial-hate crime. You MUST ask WHY the small media in OK CONVENIENTLY left out the race of the attacker. They are HIDING what has happened here. You are HIS FATHER, and YOU MUST speak out. Think of many children that dont say anything at all, and get beaten up just for being white or black. Racism is racism, black or white.

the kid shouldn’t have made a racist comment. that could be brought up in court also. it could have been worse if the kid did nothing he could have got bullied. some kids these days grow up with racist parents and then they go and follow their example. racism is wrong along with bullying. we are supposed to teach our kids to love everyone, this kid got what was coming to him,

I know, that poor child being subjected to racist bigotry until he finally snapped. It’s absolutely horrible that he was being bullied for the color of his skin.

Samantha Reynolds That happens to white kids all the time, being beaten up for the color of their skin. WHY are they not out beating up black kids, Hispanics and others?? You condone this violence yourself.

I’m sure that there is a lot more to the story than what we as “outsiders” know. Now this is purely speculation on my part, but from what I studied in college, the marshal islander kid was probably bullied and called racist names all his life and when Preston called him that racial name, the marshal islander probably had just had enough and hit the kid, and when you have been holding in that much anger towards people who call you racially charged names all the time, you’re gonna black out and not realize how much harm you are inflicting on the person who is getting beat up. When kidsare constantly called names, they push it far down inside of themselves until one day there is no more room to push down all those hurt feelings and then you explode like a volcano. You either go crazy and shoot everyone who called you names constantly, you either kill yourself because you can’t take it anymore, or you snap and decide to teach the bully lesson. when you snap, you actually black out and don’t even realize how much damage you have caused until you are pulled away. I have noticed that kids who are bullied and have a good support system at home and strongly believe in a higher being are the ones that can take the bullyin because they know it won’t last forever.

Twila Hammons You are condoning possible murder, you are also very sick. The person raised violently is the “OTHER” kid, which nobody cares to bring up here (his race), you are all protecting violence vs words. Sick.
