Unfortunately, these incidents are popping up everywhere, and who can say where the next one will occur?
A kid I know chose a college without a history of his ethnicity and its associated nation being targeted, unlike another college he had been considering. In his freshman year, he was right at the center of an incident at his own college, which was supposed to be a calmer environment in respect to that sort of thing.
Unfortunately, intolerance, a hostile mob mentality towards those who are different from the in-group in either background or viewpoint, and expressed hatred of all sorts, are breaking out into the open all over the place now.
