FOX 32 NEWS - Chicago investigators are questioning four African-Americans after a Facebook Live video shows a group of people torturing a white mentally disabled man while someone yelled "F*** Trump!" and "F*** white people!"

Chicago police were made aware of the video Tuesday afternoon. A young African American woman streamed the video live on Facebook showing at least four people holding the young white man hostage.

"The video is reprehensible," said police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi.

"It's sickening. You know it makes you wonder what would make individuals treat somebody like that," Police Supt. Eddie Johnson added.

The Trump administration can use the option of federal charges for a hate crime to make sure justice is served. It’s about time we get consistent with hate crimes and these BLM goons need to be an example.

Thank you for posting the video.
People need to see this.
This is a hate crime.
Everyone on the woman’s facebook feed, she’s talking to people on her FB as she’s live-streaming, that didn’t report this should also be charged.

What make people act this way?

Barack Obama


This is his only legacy. Fanning the flames of racial hatred in the black community.

If this was a special needs black kid being tortured by whites in the same manner, he would be the new Rosa Parks, he would become an icon of racism for the next 100 years.

An 18-year-old girl who posted a Facebook Live video showing a man with special needs being tied up, tortured and beaten in a Chicago home is in police custody with three friends, authorities say.

Brittany Herring streamed the video live on Facebook on Tuesday while she and three men taunted and attacked the victim, a resident of a Chicago suburb, police said.

Wonder if they get charged with a hate crime?
As much as I hate the concept of “ hate crimes” if whites are going to get charged, so should blacks.

Quickly going from foot soldiers to imprisoned butt pirates.

Reads to me like it fits for a fed charge using The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, 18 U.S.C. § 249.

I am so livid....I shall refrain from using any verbage at all...other then to state...these four folks are nothing but Obama, inspired, evil, disgusting, human animals. Hell awaits all of them including Barack Hussein Obama!!! They may get mercy from the merciful God Almighty...but the will not get one iota of mercy from me. All of them should be jailed for life...and POTUS, Obama should be impeached today!!!

You’d think the trial would be open and shut. But we’re talking about Chicago here.

I have to chuckle a little at the fact that Brittany is just about the whitest white girl name ever.
