New York Tourists in San Francisco Attacked After Leather-Clad Folsom Street Festival

NBC Bay Area ^ | 9/26 | Marianne Favro

The suspects are described as five African-American men, 25 to 35 years old,

talking about family values? rather odd. Maybe African immigrants?

[doorgunner69]

"It was totally unprovoked," White said. "It's amazing how unprovoked it was."

Hard to say, without seeing these NYC homos and how they were dressed and acted.

Face it: bottomless leather chaps just piss some people off......

[BlessedBeGod]

...one of the men told them they were "destroying family values"...

That's an odd, awkward thing to say. It makes me think it's a hoax. Were there witnesses?

[riverrunner]

If they were at a McDonald’s there should be video

[ifinnegan]

Smells like baloney.

[AZLiberty]

But African-Americans are a protected group in lib-land, so it’s not likely they would make up something like that. If it were faked, the story would have been about white guys wearing Make America Great Again caps.

Blacks attack homosexuals - hate crime.

Homosexuals attack Blacks - hate crime.

Blacks and homosexuals attack Whites - ho hum, nothing to see here; move along....

[The Westerner]

What is the dif between assault and battery and hate crime? The category is subjective and a terrible precedent therefore.

[Drew68]

That's an odd, awkward thing to say. It makes me think it's a hoax.

If it were a hoax, they'd have made the attackers white.

[Jack Hammer]

Easy question.

It’s a hate crime if it’s committed against anyone but a White male; it’s assault and battery if it’s committed aginst a White male.

Standard definition from Alfred E. Neuman’s ‘American Law and Silliness in the Twenty-First Century.’

[FreedomStar3028]

They were driving a minivan.

[Mark17]

They were ordering food when two suspects rushed them, uttering homophobic slurs. Frias told the San Francisco Chronicle that one of the men told them they were "destroying family values."

Yes, it's odd that anyone in San Francisco talks about family values. Maybe the whole thing is a hoax.

[mdmathis6]

It doesn’t pass the smell test....”release the video, release the video”/s

[FreedomPoster]

There you have it. Zombie has done photojournalistic reporting reporting from this event, from back in 2007. It is NOT family friendly. I doubt much has changed, it has been going on for a long time.

Links to the warning page. Anything past that page has lots of stuff that cannot be unseen. You’ve been warned.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Who are “The yare?”

[carcraft]

I am smelling hoax or staged event also.

[KosmicKitty]

I’m betting on hoax

[fwdude]

OF course it’s a hoax. These concocted “hate crimes against homos” almost always are of late.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Can’t be blacks. Nah. They never do anything mean.

Schadenfreude, again! I love it when lib groups clash. (Before they went lock-step with Uhbama when he “changed his mind”, blacks basically hate homos. Truth.)

Who is preferred?
