And not attempted murder?

Scumbags like this should be locked up forever.

A 4 pound hammer is not a deadly weapon, and it wasn't racist.. so it couldn't be attempted murder.

Shot at apparently... but still i mean the guy obviously didn't mean to hit him, cos well he didn't hit him...There was no mention of pistol whipping or nasty racist words being said, so no can't be attempted murder if we go by the SAHRC standards that is.
