His parent(s) should be in jail with him.

Odds are good that at least one is already in jail with him, or even more likely, on probation.

Urban culture is so uplifting.

If these punks had been white they would have been charged with a hate crime. I wonder why these hoods haven't.

"If I could get to get those guys, I would ask them why did they do this? What were your intentions? What was going through your mind?" he said. "I want them to look me in the face and tell me they are sorry. Tell me why. That is all I want."

Wish in one hand and spit in the other.

This is all the more reason to carry concealed.

Answers - NO
Retribution - YES

Guess what? Animals are rarely sorry. That's why we put them down when they get out of control.


Amen to that....


an eye for an eye.

"Anthony Boyd Jr., 18, was also arrested for allegedly throwing the bottle rocket and released on $1,000 bond."




my son had to post $2500 bond for a DUI arrest. How could they ever let that sucker out of jail before his conviction.

he's not in jail...he posted $100 and was let out. He now has an attorney, and will undoubtedly get of on this with minimum punishment if any. That's the way the system works.

Strong families don't want the kind of "socialization" that brought about this assault




Absolutely correct. Kids learn much more negative, evil behaviors in school with their "peers" than any positives that are trying to be taught. I taught in public school for 34 years. Home schooling is the only way.

"The entire community is guilty."



And this same community will be mentioned by the 'rats as a disadvantaged community that needs our money for federal help, because all these bigoted, racist businesses moved out of their community. Of course, they moved out in large part because they couldn't get any truck deliveries.

I'm sure the mothers of each of these hoodlums (dads are probably long gone) has the attitude of "not MY child!" The mothers of those arrested have probably totally showed their as-es defending their "precious babies." The story makes me SICK! I agree with the post that said the group should be rounded up and shot. We don't need sick MFs like this on the streets doing this. Another story stated that other truckers had been assaulted with fireworks and rocks on that same road in the past.

The attack on Diaz was apparently not the first time motorists and others have been pelted by rocks in that area. Firefighters responding to minor incidents in the community have also been assaulted, and MARTA had suspended rail service in the area at least once for the same reason.

They should impose a curfew and send in the National Guard.

This story makes "A Clockwork Orange" look like a nursery rhyme.

That poor man. He's likely to have been sentenced to a lifetime of pain, thanks to these animals.

There is still much to be learned about the shameful episode on a darkened Atlanta street last week. It would be just as shameful if we lost our shared humanity and sense of community in the process

There is little doubt what race and what political party this author belongs. Obviously the author thinks hate-crimes are only white-on-black, and more understanding is needed when poor, ignorant black children act out.

Then he says something about 'parents'. These punks don't have parents, they live with auntee or grandma or the street.
