A brutal beating of a Buffalo, N.Y. senior was caught on video. WGRZ-TV was given a video of a Buffalo man who was brutally beaten by a group of high school student.
The incident happened in North Buffalo at Shoshone Park two weeks ago as James LeGrand, who is a part of Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown’s Impact Team, was in the park’s parking lot when he noticed two girls arguing with a bunch of student who surrounded them and were encouraging them to fight. He tried to break up the fight several times and then got a camera and started taking pictures. When he warned the students he was going to show their principal at nearby Bennett High School, the crowd turned on him.
“Each time I turned, you know, somebody was hitting me from behind,” he said. …

Yep. It’s whom you suspect it is.
Video shows the same pack/feral kids.
Victim super nice black guy, perps all black.
NO ARRESTS.
OOhhh..they face long term suspensions...that’s just going to KILL their Princeton scholarships...
IF they know WHO did this, WHY aren’t they in the SLAM.
Let me guess - black.
Oops, sorry. that was raaaacist, wasn’t it?
I am sooo racist.
As I was reading the article my mind automatically inserted the word ‘black’ in front of ‘girls’ and ‘student(s).’
I simply assumed that this incident involved black students due to the behavior involved.
The fact that it’s been two weeks and no one has been arrested made me even more subconsciously biased.
It was wrong of me and I apologize.

Never mind.
no, your comment was not racist... meerly racial...
Proof that high capacity mags are needed!
Mayhem, at the least, lock the animals up for 20 years.
That's why I left my dear Buffalo.
Please read the article, or at least attempt to...
The writing of this article is so bad that I had to comment. Nearly the entire article is written in very substandard English, and is only semi-coherent. Here is a shining example of what passes for writing in the media today:
“The problem here is that the Buffalo Public School District has done its own investigation and has pretty much most of the students in the video have been identified. The station was told that long term suspension proceedings are already ongoing.”
No, that is not a faulty cut/paste job. It is exactly what is proudly on display on the Buffalo Guardian Express website, written by that wily wordsmith Paul Kasprzak. If you check out other articles by him, you can see that this is not an isolated item.
What really floors me is that this article made it through whatever editing process they have. (I am assuming that someone edits the copy before it its the public website; perhaps that is a BIG assumption...)
Just pathetic writing and subsequent editing, really pathetic. And to think that these people make their living plying these wares...

That’s because the site is at best a blog trying to sound like a newspaper. They have a bunch of Twitter handles that sound like real papers and “New Yorker Times” as one of their other sites.
I wouldn’t trust that there is a single true word in the story. Here’s a story about one of their want ads.

Yep, and the Guardianistas won’t do one story on black on white crime.
Sheesh, how crooked can people be? I assumed it was a local rag with website... Goes to show I need to investigate further! Thanks for pointing this out... What a racket!
