I'm all for equal treatment, but that's for equal crimes.
Hanging a noose in a tree is certainly rude, insensitive, obnoxious and innapropriate, but it is no way equvilent to knocking someone uncouncious and continuing to kick him. If you don't agree then please cite which law was violated by the noose in the tree. Attempted murder sounds like too severe a charge in this case, but remember it was reduced to aggravated assult.
If you're going to use innocent victims of racism to illustration racism in this country, they should be actual innocent victims, not kids who beat the shit out of other kids, or dancers who make up stories about being raped by LaCrosse teams.
