NYC Man Reportedly Brain-Dead After Random, Possibly Racially Motivated, Attack

NYC Man Reportedly Brain-Dead After Random, Possibly Racially Motivated, Attack

A man allegedly went on a rampage in Union Square on Wednesday afternoon that left a complete stranger critically hurt, reports CBS New York.

Jeffrey Babbitt, a 62-year-old retired train conductor, was walking through the crowd near tables set up with chess boards when the suspect in the attack - 31-year-old Lashawn Marten - shouted a racial comment before hitting Babbitt in the head.

"He said 'The next white person who walks by, I'm going to [expletive],'" one female witness told WCBS-TV. "His fist went in and the man's head bobbed and he hit the ground and you could hear his skull hitting the ground."

The man continued his rampage before demanding to see police officers.

"He stood there and hit two more people and asked for the police to come," Michael Benson said.

Marten, who is apparently homeless, was watching people play chess in the park and reportedly complained that nobody wanted to play chess with him prior to the attack, according to 1010 WINS' Carol D'Auria.

Police are investigating the attack as a possible hate crime, according to NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly.

Will the President be claiming proxy fatherhood to this attacker?

Getting worse by the day.

It’s Obama’s fault.

He is encouraging it.

Lashawn acted stupidly. Perhaps O’dingbat will want to hold a weed summit so he and his bros from da ‘hood can toke and joke. Perhaps he could also bring some good white ‘blow” to the party and everyone can get stoned and laid. Ah, no, women are not permitted at the weed (boys only) summit.

Good thing that Zommerman was not there. He may have shot the unarmed Lashawn Marten, who was merely applying a ‘beat down’ on some crazy-ass cracker.

Just like “workplace violence” to the chant of Allahu Akbar”. This time who could possibly call it a hate crime just because the perp said he as going to beat the f *k out of the next white person who walks by.”?

Just one more notch on Obastard’s current account that he shares with brother Holder and his Justus department. what would it take to end this continued war on white people instigated by the two aforementioned agents provocateur?
the answer is unpalatable to most but is swinging the other direction with each attack. God save us all from their evil machinations!

This could’t have happened. After all, Marten was “unarmed,” just as St. Trayvon of the Skittles (SBUH) was “unarmed.”

Guess what, CBS. Blacks can be (and are) racist, too!

Witnesses were shocked at the unexpected violence..

Why unexpected? What in the history of feral American thuggery makes this type of attack unexpected?

..a senseless attack that shocked onlookers.

Senseless? It makes perfect sense; clueless white people have been the victims of the "knock-out" game for at least a generation.

Police investigating whether attack was racially motivated..

Investigating? So, despite witness testimony to the statements of the perp prior to his attempted homicide, the police have to further investigate?

Let's face it - Mr. Babbit was guilty of being within 50ft. of a victim class member while not being in code red alert status.

"He said 'The next white person who walks by, I'm going to [expletive],'" one female witness told WCBS-TV."

The perp explicitly announces a racial motive for the attack, and the act is only "possibly" racially motivated?

“Police are investigating the attack as a possible hate crime”

This won’t last. A phone call from holder, and that will be forgotten and the cop who said demoted.

Thanks for posting. Is 31-year-old Lashawn Marten Barry’s son? Check his BC. What does POSOTUS know and when did he know it?

Anyplace, anytime, if you are white, you are a target. Be wary of any black person you don’t know. Decades of hate indoctrination, gangsta’ culture and rap fantasies have turned humans into feral animals.
