This week's top story: Marcello Lucero, a 37-year-old immigrant from Ecuador, was killed by seven New York City high school students in an apparent hate crime. Police officials say the group of teens, which includes one Latino, are facing charges of first-degree "gang assault."

 
 
 

What should happen to the attackers? Have you ever witnessed a hate crime? Why do you think a Latino was involved?

IN MY OPINION ALL I WANNA IS THAT I REALLY HATE PEOPLE WHO ARE RACIST !! ALSO I GUESS THEY MOSTLY HATE ON LATINOS BECAUSE WERE BROWN PRIDE AND THEIR NOT!! I THINK THAT TO THE DUDES THAT KILLED THE GUY SHOULD GET DEATH PENALTY OR SOMETHING ELSE! BECAUSE IT'S NOT FAIR THAT THEY MOSTLY PICK ON LATINOS

people need to stop being so ignorant.
its time for people to accept that not everyone is the same.
there is people with different skin colors and such,but does that mean we have to go and kill them? No,
These people need to grow up mentally,they are stuck in a 3rd grade state of mind.
actually,i think 3rd graders have more sense than these people
