Maybe you'd feel better if there was justification. Sims' lawyer tried to create some. She said Scarpino, who is white, made a racial remark about Sims, who is black. But no witnesses -- and there were several -- confirmed this.

Gee, a lawyer playing the phony race card. How novel....

Really. But what happened to free speech and the 1st Amendment if such a remark was made? I mean this is an attorney making the claim right? Does the use of the word nigger by a non black provide a legal invitation to physical violence? Is it some kind of beat down 'get out of jail free' card?
