I recall the word 'attacked' and / or 'assaulted' being used. I am indeed aware that assault does not necessarily have to be physical, but in non-physical cases this is normally specifically mentioned, i.e. 'verbally assaulted', 'verbally abused' etc. I didn't witness any of the events...
I think it's worth remembering that some of the victims of the recent violence have been club employees, as well as fans. Not sure some of the more cynical on here would be quite so cynical if similar happened to some of their colleagues whilst they were just doing their jobs.

Asking for a friend.
I don't think anyone has suggested the act or intention to act itself wasn't racially motivated to some degree, rather the question that does this define Neeson as a racist, and whether he should be hung out to dry for admitting what he has? Given the right conditions we're all capable of acting...
