summary
Children from a New York School claimed they were subject to racial slurs at soccer games at two subsequent matches, one boys and one girls, but an investigation by the Pittsford Central School District said there is no evidence. However, "The claims were part of the reason for a protest held at Pittsford Town Hall Sunday, as well as a video that a Pittsford Sutherland student posted wielding what looks like a handgun and saying he carries it to kill what sounds like the N-word before the video cuts out that the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office investigated, finding no real threat."
