It's completely ridiculous. People with Down's Syndrome do things like this because they are like children in the head (but slightly different). I think I understand this situation better (my half aunt has it)... What we should understand this as is a disagreement between two people with mental disabilities. There would not be a full scale battle. He hit her because he didn't know the consequences of his actions, but there was disciplinary measures already taken place... what I want to know is who reported him and why? It's obvious he has Down's from the way he looks.

On the other hand we should not put them as incapable of learning. He could learn that hitting other people is wrong. It's not impossible for him. I think the girl's race didn't even play into his decision to hit her.
