Simon says "Racism"

So, a man is caught in Nassau County on video tape giving a "vicious two-handed stick attack to the face" to someone. There were plenty of witnesses and the man's address is well known. This was on Saturday but no arrest has been made?

"A spokesman for Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice said Friday that "no decision has been reached" about whether to bring charges against Simon.

"We are going to review the tape," spokesman Eric Phillips said."

Why the delay in bringing charges? Could it be.......that the attacker was white? That he was a jock? That hockey is a sport very popular amoung white people such as cops and fireman, who often get free tickets to Islander games?
