They might try 18 USC 249 and argue it's a hate crime, but that would be a stretch.

Given the evidence presented in the state case, I find it hard to believe a rational, impartial, federal jury could ever conclude so. A Federal 're-trial' of this case to achieve an opposite verdict would not be well received by the rational portion of this country, and should not be attempted...

I can't go along with that. The "rational portion of this country" is unlikely to go on a multi-city riot and looting binge, while the irrational ones are likely to do just that. Justice belongs to whomever has the monopoly on violence, and we're just too darned peaceful.
