While racist conduct might mean consequences for the ref, it wouldn't (even if true) mitigate their conduct.
There is a right way to deal with racism. Violence isn't it.

Del Rio High School just played there and had stuff stolen from their locker room: http://news4sanantonio.com/m/news/features/top-stories/stories/Team-visiting-John-Jay-has-item-stolen-203444.shtml#.VfXPwZeNA4Q
Not saying the two are necessarily related, but it shows some pretty serious discipline issues with the school in general.

As a Mexican-American, I can tell you that I never assaulted anyone over racist comments made to me. If I had, Huntville would be my home.
