Shades of Things to Come

Via the AP:

SPRING, Texas - Two white teenagers severely beat and sodomized a Hispanic 16-year-old boy who they believed had tried to kiss a Hispanic 12-year-old girl at a party, authorities said.

The attackers forced the boy out of the Saturday night house party, beat him and sodomized him with a plastic pipe, shouting anti-Hispanic epithets, said sheriff's Lt. John Martin.
A minority attacked because he tried to kiss someone? Haven't we been here before?
Harris County prosecutor Mike Trent said the attackers also cut the victim with a knife. They then poured bleach over the boy, apparently to destroy DNA evidence, and left him for dead, authorities said. He was not discovered until Sunday, 12 hours after the attack.
Severe internal injuries, cuts to the chest, and head injuries have left the youth equally likely to die as survive.

For all the claims that people like Michelle Malkin make about it 'not being about race' these attacks prove that, at the root, it is. Nobody's calling to wall off Canada.

UPDATE: 1:04 pm - From the Houston Chronicle, we get even more details on how brutal the attack was and confirmation that Tuck was a white supremacist. It's really disturbing.
