beaten for looking "chinese"

This is insane... In New York, a high school student says she was brutally punched, kicked and teased for looking "Chinese" by a pack of kids as she rode a city bus home from school—and claims the bus driver did nothing except tell her to "go to a priest": GIRL'S BLOODY BEATING. Marie Stefanie Martinez, who is from the Philippines, was attacked by a group of ten teenagers for no other reason than but her appearance. Her Asian appearance. That's racist! And what kind of world do we live in where a girl gets beaten by a bus mob and the bus driver doesn't do a damn thing? Somebody needs to get fired.
