It's always sad to see something like that happen.
It kind of disgusts me that no authority figures stepped in to help.
I lived in New York during September 11th and for a while afterwards, and nothing like that happened at my school at the time, nor at my little brother's. You'd think New Yorkers would show the stronger reaction. I mean, perhaps there was racism that I just didn't see, not being Muslim or from the Middle East myself, but I can say for sure that none of them were beat up, and any harassmant was done by only a few, because I never saw it.
