No hate crime here - move along...
Smoking related assault.
Didn't something similar happen to a soldier not to long ago by some college football players? Oregon I think...
Does this guy think it's still 1920 or something? I'd like to think that our society was WAY past this.
In this case, that detail makes a big difference, and the reporter and editor are negligent for leaving it out.
It's hard to tell from the story, but is the accused white?
Gee, I thought all the RACISTS were here in the South!
</sarcasm>
Betcha it won't be a hate crime.
CBS will surely cover this story.
As if.
Yup. No hate crime because the accused was apparently white as well. White people who beat the bejeebers out of white people aren't guilty of hate. It's only when they beat the bejeebers out of black people that it's hate.
Doing a little profiling by name, it is doubtful.
I would like to see if this gets tried as a hate crime. In San Angelo, Texas hate crime legislation was applauded until the first people were charged with it. It was two black women who assaulted a white woman who was dating a black man. This did not go over very well in the black community who felt they should have been immune from such things.
This article strikes home in a way since I am dating a Beyonce/Halle Barry type Black woman. She is an MD and her twin sister is a lawyer. Niether one of them dated black men (the lawyer is married to a white guy).
You are quite correct. There was no crime here at all. Mass is a Blue State and therefore far too enlightened to have something this archaic occur.
Just a little more love and tolerance from another Bastion of Liberalism. It never ceases to amaze me how the more liberal a city is, the higher the degree of "racism" is.
Since Long was calling his victim 'a disgrace to his race', I would guess so.
I am sick of sharing my country with all of these Red State racists. We actually fought a war to keep them in the Union? I want to live in a country where everyone is as enlightened as us, and we don't have to be associated with the ignorance and violence of these Red State...
Hold on just one second...
What does that byline say...
Whoops.
