What's the Beef? - Wendy's Employee vs customers

In January 2011, some savages patrons of the fast-food chain "Wendy's®" viciously attacked a single working mother of 5 children.

Michelle Ortiz (a hispanic woman), 42, an employee of the Wendy's restaurant located on Hillside Avenue in Queens, New York, was trying to break up a fight between some teenagers (later identified as being students from Martin Van Buren High School) when the teens turned on her.

According to one of Ortiz's coworkers (YouTube link below), Ortiz asked the teenagers to leave if they weren't going to buy anything.

One of the teenagers threw food at her, then a few moments afterwards, she was attacked.  A gang of girls slapped, punched, and kicked Ortiz in the head continuously.  She suffered a concussion.

Initially, police were on the lookout for five girls in connection with the incident; subsequently, they found and charged two 15-year old girls, and are looking for 2 more (according to one of the stories below).

None of the stories I could find described the assailants; all they said was that it was "teenagers".  Now, whenever the media describes perpetrators as "teenagers", it's usually their euphemism for 'black' or 'hispanic'.  But, in order to make sure (and so that people don't accuse me of racism), I found the video.  This is a screenshot of the main assailant:

The video is fuzzy most of the time, but if my readers take the time to look at the video themselves, they will see that it is an african american girl.

Now, if it was a bunch of white girls beating up a hispanic girl (or black girl), this story might have made more headlines. However, because the assailants were people of color, this story was conveniently buried.

That's pretty messed up.  I mean, this woman relies on her job to raise 5 kids.  She's not some welfare queen (like her attackers will probably end up being).  She suffered from headaches and nausea after the attack and for a while was not able to go back to work.

I don't get why these hoodrats need to be so violent. Then they wonder why nobody wants to live near them.  Or maybe they don't.  Ya feel me?
