White people aren't the only ones who have been accused of hazing, using that exact word. I agree that it's unfair of society to be more shocked when violence occurs among the white community, but the author is confusing "hazing," which is a legal term, with the amount of media coverage. It wasn't hazing because the kids were white; it was hazing because it fit the legal definition, which refers to only a certain kind of violence among young people of any race.

A gunman going into a school and shooting is much worse than hazing, and it may be totally unfair that it received less coverage than this hazing incident. That doesn't mean that it's wrong to call one "hazing" and the other a "shooting spree."
