Not everything is race, my man. No? I gotta wonder, when you make chimp references in a story where black people are central players. One well-known epithet leveled at blacks has to do with monkeys or other lower primates.
Now, if you have some other intelligent explanation for the chimp reference that's actually plausible, go right ahead. I might buy your "mob action" explanation, if you're willing to admit that you made a bad or unthinking choice of metaphor. Otherwise, I'm sticking with my original assessment.

I will say this, that many (not all) blacks do behave in a primal sort of way. This is exemplified in their music (rap is very basic - a drum or bass beat with a sort of chanting over the top of it), their dance is again very primal and unrefined (most of it has to do with grinding of the pelvis and but into another partner), their IQ on average (not all but most) is below almost all other races, their propensity for crime is above average, and if ever confronted you would see first hand that they are much more likely to incite violence (which is not unlike other groups but I do feel that they are above average in my very real personal experiences) when together in a group.
Are these caused partly by environment - yes. But they can not be all explained by environment - there are many races which come from similiar environments that do not behave this way. So yes some of this is genetic not to say that other races dont have their faults either but to say that we shouldn't look at these things from a purely statistical and scientific standpoint is to only ignore the issue.
There is much evidence for this thought FBI crime statistics, review of the SAT/ACT tests, the book the Bell Curve, prison statistics, BET TV, MTV etc all show what I am suggesting is the obvious truth but is belied by the media, liberals and even yes PC republicans/conservatives. If we face these issues and discuss them frankly and honestly then we might foster change.

i would have a better chance of finding the perps that brutally assaulted her, just for the simple fact that i would be trying to find them. and it was her hair that at a concert probably got in one of the perps faces? you gotta be kidding me. not only is that a stupid reason to assault someone but also immature. and i will say that race had to play a huge roll in this, you gotta be kidding me if it didn't, and i would like to give kudos to the boy that stepped in, he may have saved her life.
