Imagine if you will, hanging out with your friends on a front lawn, chatting about what a nice night you had just had, how great the fireworks were, and maybe what your plans were for the 4th of July weekend.
All of a sudden, a teen comes up and blindsides and assaults one of your friends, a melee ensues, with a group of teens numbering up to perhaps 50, swarming you, your family and friends. Punches were thrown. Kicks were delivered. A general beat down was happening, and all the while, the teens were yelling "This is our world." "This is a white world."
