Police ask help in finding assault suspects

Two veterans of the Iraq war were among those savagely beaten recently in Pioneer Square by a group of men.

Now, Seattle police are looking for the attackers. On Wednesday, they released a videotape of the attack filmed by a witness and still photos captured from the tape.

"We are hoping the public can offer some assistance," police spokesman Sean Whitcomb said.

The assault happened just past 2:30 a.m. on July 31, police reported.

A group of people were in line to enter Larry's Nightclub on First Avenue South when a man groped one of the women in the group.

Her friend, another woman, confronted the man, and he groped her as well.

Or perhaps he will be introduced to the "slugga"- Louisville Slugger. One can only hope.

Your defense mechanism is alerted when you are confronted with a situation like the one you described. That's natural, and it is wise to think twice on that one. When standing, I'm a 6' 6", 275 lb. man. My defense mechanism automatically arises when I come into contact with younger black men dressed as you described.

As a 6'5" 240lb white man...I somehow feel reassured that the same thought process/defense mechanism occurs inside of your head too! ;)

Personally, I think the current pop culture that exists in the black community has done a lot of damage.

Yes, it has done irreparable damage. It was planned to do that damage precisely. The young black men's actions and how they carry themselves was provoked purposefully to retrieve precisely those young black men's reactions and attitudes, as it was to conjure up images in you and other mainstream Americans about what every young black man is supposed to be about.

Bravo Sierra...but one question...

"It was planned to do that damage precisely." OK, maybe I will be coming off like a clueless person here...but, WHO planned to do that damage precisely? Dems/libs in entertainment? So that they have huddled and dependant group of people to sell their "product "/destructive culture to?

Since I'm quite buzzed right now, the short answer is to consider the before-and-after affects of the mid-50s through the early-70s. Look at black America when Ike was president, then compare that image to the one in 1974.

What changed? What was achieved? The pieces are right in front of us. I tell you what; either here or in FReepmail, I promise to answer you in totality when I'm not so groggy.

Yes, it is. I wonder how long it will take for men like him to make it to the mainstream airwaves.

Uh, RDB3? Remember that post where I said Mr. HR and I would love to have you over for a "healing" Texas cuisine dinner? We have a kid in college......we'll have to save up some $ before we can feed you dinner, I think.....(hope you're doing better and keeping up your sense of humor).

So now all of the caterwauling is finished. Funny, in a sad sort of way.
