I wonder if they'll march on Norfolk, next.

[nmh]

Gee, I wonder if racist, Sharpton or Jackson will show up to condemn this or were they the ones LAUGHING in the background?

[Jedi Master Pikachu]

"wonder if they'll march on Norfolk, next."

Some of the people on this thread seem to believe that that is in order.

Repaying pettiness for pettiness, guess.

...are investigating whether an alleged attack against a 13-year-old boy...

The tape shows the victim, Damien O'Rourke, who is white, being violently beaten

That doesn't sound like an alleged attack to me, sounds like the kid got 'jumped'.

[Izzy Dunne]

Damien O'Rourke, who is white, being violently beaten by a group of African American teenagers.

Hmmm. Why is it that the victim is "white" but the perps are "African-Americans"?

Why isn't the victim a "Caucasian-American"?

Or why aren't the perps "blacks"?

[L.N. Smithee]

We must make sure that the perpetrator of this horrible crime is prosecuted and imprisoned!

JAIL THE WHITE KID! </sarcasm>

[Atlas Sneezed]

The most important question on my mind is “who shot the video?”

[keepitreal]

Definition of allege: To assert without or before proof.
Definition of attack: To set upon with violent force.

The tape shows an attack, about 5 boys beating and kicking one boy. To say “alleged attack” gives the impression that a) The boy who was attacked has no proof or b) it hasn’t been proven to be an attack. Even if the boy in some way provoked it (not saying that he did, just speaking hypothetically), he was still attacked. Five boys beating one boy, no matter what the reason, is an attack.

They need a Rev. somthing for this march.

Try this guy.

He's just a windy as Rev. Al and Jessah.

[evets]

Ka-ching!

[Rick.Donaldson]

I saw this on fox this morning. Didn’t look too “alleged” to me, looked pretty much like a real attack

[Tired of Taxes]

I can’t wait to hear what Soledad or Sam Donaldson will have to say about THIS. I’m sure they’ll demand justice for the kid who was beaten. /sarcasm

(Their coverage on Jena has been absolutely SICKENING.)

[redhead]

What “alleged??” If it is caught on tape, there is no “alleged” about it. PC “news” dumbs down yet another perfectly useful word.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Paging the “Justice Brothers”.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Here we go again.....

[pipecorp]

[generally]

Using the word “alleged” to describe something that is a proven fact is ludicrous beyond belief. We have gone over the edge of political correctness into some alternative reality of Newspeak.

[freeangel]

Well, why wouldn’t this gang of nappy-heads beat the snot out of a white boy. They saw the Jena charges melting into obblivion and figure the law won’t touch them either—being members of a victimized class and all— sharpton and jackson will rush to their sides to defend them.

[Trailerpark Badass]

“Alleged” attack?

[denydenydeny]

being violently beaten

Yes, but the important thing is, did anyone display a noose? Then we'd be talking serious crimes.

[dragnet2]

What was it, 7 or 8 blacks against 1 white kid?

Then they video tape it?

The news is asking is this was racial?

What would give them their first clue?
