That’s the thing if people joined in to stop these thugs then it would have been portrayed by the media as a bunch of whites trying to attack 6 impoverished youths who didn’t know any better because life has been “hard” for them.

Aren't we assuming that the victims and the others at the park were all white, or even not black? Either way, it seems to me that if the father was armed it is better to be alive and having to be called a "racist" or even face prosecution than it is to be dead and lost to your family forever.

Yes they would be portrayed by the media as racists, but they would have RESPECT. And those thugs would think twice about trying that again.

This is not just a racial thing. There are plenty of decent black people who don’t like having their daughters groped.

So what? The guy wouldn't be in the hospital with a bleeding brain either. Hopefully one or more of the thugs would be.

I don’t see that the victim was white.
