Inflatable Bunny Attack Not a Bias Crime, Police Say

President George W. Bush obviously loves the Easter Bunny more than the person who assaulted an inflatable one in Westchester.
There was no bias behind an attack on a 5-foot-tall inflatable pink Easter bunny in the New York suburbs, police said Thursday.
The bunny was found flattened Sunday on Isabel Gonzalez's lawn on Jerome Drive in Cortlandt.
Two neighbors have been arrested and charged with criminal mischief, but police say there was no bias involved -- and the deflated bunny was part of a prank.
Gonzalez had said she had wondered if her home was targeted because of her family's Hispanic ethnicity or religion.
I believe this WAS a racially motivated crime. What do YOU think?

Is it Easter already? -
Doll......I agree. Definitely seems racially motivated!

Exactly! I believe they thought it was yet ANOTHER illegal immigrant trying to sneak into OUR COUNTRY!

I see no information on the assailants. What is their ethnicity? And what was behind the "prank?" Without this info, we are left to assume that the police are correct in their assessment.
And where does George W Bush come into this?
People are often quick to make charges that have no legal merit and if there is information lacking to back up these claims, then they should be discarded.
