decide to post about a crime story, you can guess the race of the alleged perpetrators before you even open the link?

After opening the link, this is how sad things are:

The entire confrontation began after a 10-year-old boy, jockeying with the man over who would next pump a customer’s gas for spare change, told his mother the man had hit him, police told the Philadelphia Inquirer.


A child and a homeless man fought over who would pump other people's gasoline for a few loose coins.
