I don't know if they were being racists, there is no context to the clip that is played, I'm not even really sure the guy was black, he looked hispanic to me, but either way it doesn't matter since like I said before, I have no context to the situation.

The reason they were doing it was probably just for the hell of it, like when kids go out and club peoples mailboxes, there's no real reason to do it but they think it's fun. If this is true, the guy probably only got punched because he was the first person they came across that they thought would be a good person to victimize. The aggressor was a 17 year old kid, skinny little bastard; and the victim was a bit of a nerd, working to become a comic book artist he said.

I think they got the idea, thought they had invented the wheel, and acted on it. First guy they saw that looked soft got a punch in the face and they ran away. Now, hopefully, they go to jail for a year.
