The Melting Pot Is Boiling Over

Shocking video emerges of hammer-wielding Pacific Islander gang members forcing young African-Australian kids to kneel and kiss their shoes while making their hand sign

A group of thugs claiming to be from Sydney gang Inner West have filmed themselves threatening African-Australian boys with a hammer. 

Amnesty International Youth Taskforce member Shaneel Lal posted the video to Instagram on Wednesday, saying it was previously posted elsewhere.

'The video shows Pacific men forcing young Black boys to kiss their shoes/the ground, threatening them with a hammer and using the 'n' word,' a post content warning read. 

'There is speculation that this is gang affiliated and therefore not racist. The use of the ''n word'' is racist.' It seems the melting pot is boiling over

Not good. Yes there could be a degree of racism here but what we're looking at is "Gang Culture" and the imported Americanised version of it. Thanks to media outlets and people who have made money from it, it's popular amongst many of the youth. I  now see more Caucasian guys doing similar with the hand signs and slang etc.. Watch TV shows like Rage and you see elements of this culture in music being glorified.

Probably quite right there, 4 chan.

What you're saying is there's no real racism. Just gang mentality. If it were a white gang of youths involved, that would be just "gang culture", and not white supremacist racism?

I think that this case does have elements of racism in it with this group of Pacific Islanders possibly looking down on the Africans, maybe! Perhaps this was a motivation to humiliate them

With gangs that are all white with the exclusion of others, an attack like this could be racially motivated and white supremacist inspired. This is because that's what they are. But, a gang of all white guys like some bikers would just be a bunch of bikers attacking Africans and these bikers would just happen to be white.
