And for those of you who thought that Crash was too unrealistic....

Yeah, stuff like this definitely doesn't happen in America anymore:

"Two white teenagers severely beat and sodomized a 16-year-old Hispanic boy who they believed had tried to kiss a 12-year-old white girl at a party, authorities said.
The attackers forced the boy out of the Saturday night house party, beat him and sodomized him with a metal pipe, shouting epithets "associated with being Hispanic," said Lt. John Martin with the Harris County Sheriff's Department. "


What's funny is how "civilized" we really believe we are in America, with our SUVs, and reality TV. We think women are "liberated" because they can wear shirts that show off their midriff, and minorities are "free" because they can release rap albums and walk into the front of the theatre rather than the rear.

I can't even think of a joke...
