I don’t know, but Hooks has been charged. Not sure about you, but I’m old enough to remember situations where white folks would NEVER be charged with assaulting a black person.

If those times ever return, then that will be something to worry about. Currently, however, we live in a society where black-on-white crime is a huge problem that is ignored by the media. Meanwhile, the same media salivate on the rare occasion that a white-on-black crime occurs, to the point even of running wild with stories they haven't even bothered to check up on, such as the Duke “rape” case.

Darn how old could you be? I am 51 yrs old & I live in a state where a white person would have been arrested just as fast as a black person. At least that is the way it has been for as long as I can remember. Beating anyone that badly would have resulted in an arrest asap no matter what race you are.

I remember those days too.

Do we correct past injustices by swing the pendelum to the other extreme and just reversing the discrimination?

Is that considered the “equality” whites and blacks fought so hard for in the 60’s?

sure happened all the time.... now when did this happen?

You know what. It's getting old. I don't give a sh#t what happened. I'm sick of the pathetic parasites throwing the "well they were mean to me" 50 years ago... 100 years ago.... 150 years ago... Guess what... the Jews have been cr#pped on for longer. The Chinese were also discriminated against. The japanese were imprisoned and still have succeded....but somehow the chosen ones find an excuse to fail... to go to jail ... to be so stupid that instead of getting on a bus or moving out would rather wait and drown instead of thinking for themselves

Plus we get to hear.....

and I can't take the SAT cause I'm a victim

why did the Koreans and CIA put liquor stores in our neighborhoods to make us all drunk...

How come crack got shoved into our lungs to make us all crack heads?

Why did the white man make me father 80% of our kids out of wedlock?

...... and on and on and on.....

Get over it. Basta, it's done. The white house is occupied by a REAL African-American. So does the country ever get to say STFU already about how f'ing tough it was for African americans.

I'm not "white". I'm of Hispanic heritage... and if this mayate had done that to me or my family, they would have never found him.

Now that's the cultural difference that make diversity our strength. You see how well it's working out in Los Angeles. A lot of these punks are bullies and bullies don't like anybody to stand up to them.

My prediction, plea down to time held and community service.

Like I said, if he was from my old stomping grounds, he would want to stay in prison for awhile.

That may be so, but that doesnt stop this being a racist act.

Awww, so you think this guy shouldn't be charged either, you know, to make up for the past. Idiot.

[Lexinom]

Ahhhhh! you see? you see?

This is what happens when people thing in terms of groups.

"Whatie done gone beatn' on darkie forty yeahs ago, so now dis heahs payback!"

I am getting sick of the racial identity politics. One human person assualted another human person. Nothing else needs to be known except the facts of this particular case.

[Safetgiver]

Not sure about you, but I’m old enough to remember situations where white folks would NEVER be charged with assaulting a black person.... Just how old are you? I’m 59+ and don’t remember anyting like that. I think Bobby Byrd hung his last man in the 40’s.
