I don't think that this is necessarily racist. Brown's party was a huge crowd. It's possible that the manager denied service because the party was so large. A customer felt threatened by the party and the manager asked them to leave, and the party was not compliant, and felt as thought they were being discriminated.

I Have a Dream Assignment.
"Now is the time to make the real promises of Democracy."
I think what Dr. King meant by this is that, he was tired of still not being treated equally like the government said they should have been. Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation roughly one-hundred years prior to his speech, that set the African American slaves free. Free from being owned and sold, but not treated equally. Even in the Constitution it states that all men are created equal and Dr. King was a firm believer in this.

1.I personally don't think they should. They did have previous convictions, but I do not think that they yet old enough to be tried as adults.
2. Yes. Since I don't think they should be tried as adults I think their identities should be kept private, and not given the chance to be to be turned into targets.
3. Well, we can not mug and kill WWII veterens for starters. I'm not really sure there is a way to completely stop this.
