If you have time, read some of the posts, the victim's mother is one of the posters and she has given updates on her son's condition.
A small request -
While it’s not part of the ‘Posting Guidelines’, it would be a courtesy, when posting ‘local’ stories like this, to indicate the City and State, either in parentheses with the title, or in the “Poster’s Comment”...
This is still another that will curiously be ignored by the State-run, Lame -Stream Media.

I think we need to really start throwing the book at people who commit UNPROVOKED violence against others - long sentences with no parole. If the jails are too full, put the non violent offenders on house arrest.
I try very hard to not become racist, but with the way the black youth are behaving these days there’s really no other choice. We are quickly coming to the point where it’s shoot first if threatened and ask questions later. (and due to events such as this one being approached by two or more blacks is becomming equivalent to being threatened)
Do the black leaders not understand that their own behavior is pushing people back to KKK type organizations? If they do not control their youth then we will have to and it will be ugly.
I missed the part of the story where the ethnicity of the perps was given. Knowing Columbia, SC, I am assuming that those zany Amish kids are acting up again.
Sounds like a gun would have been the only suggestion that would have prevented this. Of course that is not a valid suggestion because people can get hurt when guns are around.
Amish?
It's somewhat heartening to see they aren't bothering to use the "robbery gone wrong" modifier anymore. These are just plain old racial intimidation attacks.
Race card in 3, 2, 1...
Downtown Columbia, and especially Five Points, used to be a wonderful experience for wide-eyed small town visitors.
At the end of the article: “You have to remember you are in the city, he said. You have to put your city armor on.”
Exactly! Therefore, as our cities are full of predators on two legs, an immediate return to Constitutional Carry IS necessary.
For those in Urban Liberal Land, Constitutional Carry means anyone who is a citizen can carry what they please, as they so please, subject to the rules of such private property they choose to enter.
On public property, they may carry as they please.
As a Founder remarked centuries ago: “For in such manner is tyranny kept in check.”
If the media insists on politically correct avoidance of accurately identifying criminals why not avoid any stereotype ID-ing?
“Teens?”—isn’t that age-ist?
“Men?”-isn’t that sexist?
Shouldn’t it read:
“Human assaulted in Five Points; Humans condition critical after attack by four humans.”
It’s no more ridiculous than racial ID avoidance.
Just a warning to anyone who tries that with me. I’m a fat old man and I gave up running a long time ago. Now I carry a gun when I go for a walk - especially after dark.
I feel like there might be some information missing from this story...
Neal Boortz, on the radio just today, spoke that black males make up 6.7% of our population, yet this small group commits over 48% of all murders.
If you think it is bad now...just wait till the Government can’t send out any more checks.
Looking forward to Wolfie Blitzer running this story nonstop on CNN for the next few days and demanding that a hate crime prosecution be started.
Has anyone noticed a very obvious trend going on?
Since Obama (the racial hate monger) has been in office we have had a huge increase in black gang crimes.
Our “civil rights” fiasco has turned the blacks into slaves of the welfare system and reverted many of them back into the very savages their ancestors were.
Political correctness has been a huge factor in all of this.
What to do? It’s easy...we have to end special rules for enforcement of laws based on race and apply justice equally among all. Furthermore, we must end the fear of being called a “racist” in the reporting of all of the reporter’s 5 “W”s in all reporting via written or transmitted means. That means the race (and religion) of the criminal(s) should be posted within the article with no fear of racial repercussions.
As we “timid” Jews and gentiles cower down and hide from the truth, our prisons, jails and cesspools of racial hatred of whites festers and is converting not only with racial hate, but to the religion of Islam.
As sure as the sun rises in the morning, the day will come in America when either the whites will be slaves of their masters or a horrible armed revolution will occur to take back our country from the invaders trained in our public schools, universities, prisons, jails, ghettos and racial churches and mosques.
Political Correctness insures this fact. The only glimmer of hope for our children is the fact that they have not taken our guns from us yet....however, they are working on that problem as I speak.
It’s time to wake up!
