La Shawn Barber, who's very skeptical of the Duke Lacrosse story, points to this story of black youths who attacked and caused the death of a NYT student, shouthing "Get the white guy!" (or harsher words to that effect) as evidence of why we should throw out the whole idea of a bias crime. How can you argue that saying "white guy" before you decide to rob him is just a descriptive statement, but if you said "get the black guy!" you know that would be taken as evidence of a hate crime.
