I cant seem to find it but in ga a few years ago a black man was charged with a hate crime when he told his buddies that he was going to kill the first white man he saw and then did so.

now I have no idea what he said at the time, but it wouldnt have surprised me if he called the vicitm a cracker before killing him because of race.
