And accusations of an “ethnic slur” being used provoked and justified the attack.
Bet on it.
That’s actually common. An elderly white woman tried to argue in a chicken place she’d been shorted. She walked out, and a black man hit her, then body slammed her. Their excuse? “She said an ethnic slur.”
It is like blasphemy laws in Muslim countries. Want to legitimate violence? Say they said the forbidden things, whether or not they did. Authorities then give you a pass.
