BELLEVILLE — A Belleville West High School student was beaten aboard a bus on the way to school Monday, and a police spokesman said the beating could be racially motivated.
The 17-year-old victim was white and the teen assailants were black. Police released a video of the beating, which shows the victim being punched repeatedly while other students on the bus gather to watch, some cheering. It doesn't appear that the victim did anything to provoke an attack and tried only to defend himself. Police said it all unfolded in a five-minute span.
The victim was trying to find a seat and was told by two students he could not sit next to them, police said. When he did sit down, one teen tried to push him out of his seat then began grabbing the victim's neck and punching him in the face.
The victim eventually returned to his seat, but another student began taunting him a few minutes later. The victim was then struck in the face.

Nowadays people realize that they don’t have to do anything; everyone knows where “they” are, and all commerce has naturally migrated away to safer areas/neighborhoods (while you can completely avoid the “bad” areas). Urban blacks have been reduced to the status of “trading post Injuns”, dependent on the good graces of others for the most rudimentary existence while watching the world (and numerous incoming waves of immigrants) pass them by.
However violent Africa may seem at times, I must say that the people involved see a world in which they intend to play a part.
We have to update the lyrics on the song you posted:
“The white man is my master
but Jesus is my Lord
The White man talks all day
Oh Lord do I get bored!”
Updated for 2010
The black man is my dictator
but Jesus is my Lord
The black man talks all day
Oh Lord do I get bored!
Use their own rules against them. ( Saul Alinsky)
I guess the kid deserved it, since whites are inherently racist, according to “Newspeak”.
Some schools in the U.S. are so morally corrupt that it would be better for a child NEVER to attend! I **really** mean this!
Even if the child were to remain illiterate and innumerate, this is a better situation for them than to ever step foot in some of the schools the government runs. I *seriously* mean it.
I have witnessed young people and adults arrive at the community college with less than third grade reading and math skills. Many held graduation diplomas from the local high schools. By attending remedial courses at the community college, I have personally seen how motivated adults can learn in 2 years what their government schools failed to teach them in 13. These are the same kids who just weeks or months earlier were attending a government school. The community college taught them but the government school didn’t.
So....Yes, I **seriously** mean it. There are schools that are so dangerous and morally corrupt that it would be better for the child to **never** attend. If they are motivated ( and chances are better that if they don’t attend they will be better motivated) they can always find an education if they want one.

I attended a Jr. High School for a year before my dad moved us out to the country.
It was freakin horrible.
The school was about 65% black, approx 15 to 20% white.
I didn't even know what racism or prejudice was, until I went to that school.
I grew up knowing that black people hated white people...not the other way around.
Took many years to work through that and to realize the truth about what was going on.
To watch that dorky little white kid get savagely beaten by a “crowd” of blacks....just brought those emotions back to the surface.
Man that pisses me off.
Anyone gotta cigarette.
Just where do you come up with this nonsense? Both science and Scripture agree that all of humankind comes from the same single source of two original parents; so human race, if we are to stick to the animal kingdom as you suggest, can be said to be like breeds of dogs--as like humans, they come in different shapes, sizes and colors BUT ALL SHARE THE SAME KIND OF DNA.
I don't disagree with a lot of what you've pointed out, however it should be emphasized that where there are strong two-parent nuclear families involved and parental interest in their children's education, that race really doesn't matter much when it comes to achieving success.
My experience with high achieving African-American students found them to mostly be involved with their churches (in choirs, youth groups, etc.) and in school activities which promoted good citizenship (junior ROTC, etc.).
Low-achieving African-American students mostly came from large single-parent, non-involvement families where drugs and violence were often occurring. So, IMO, it had nothing whatsoever to do with race and everything to do with socio-economic class.
It’s a hate crime. Where’s Janet? And Holder? What’s Maureen Dowd hearing - “fair or not” on this issue? Eff the biased hateful liberals.

I’m glad that isn’t my kid and if it was, he would be riding the bus the next time with a .45 hidden under his shirt. Chicken shits. One of one they run like little mice eee eee ee eee. Let the get 4-5 against one and they are real bad asses. They will be damn lucky if that kids father or one of his relatives doesn’t catch them out one night and show them what a baseball bat can do.
Indeed, too bad that kid wasn’t carrying. One bang and they would have run like the chicken sh*t they are.
Yes, they do and they are getting out of control I’m really not liking their snotty as+ attitude. One came in and applied for a job last week. Sent him right back out the door. He has an attitude and I’m not even putting up with that crap. No damn way!
Political correctness is over! OVER! I will appease no one. We had the nicest black guy that worked for us. He was married to a white girl, a Jehova Witness white girl. He was a nice looking guy, strong, well spoken(none of the ebonic crap), a really nice guy. They came to company parties, we had them over for dinner, a very nice couple.
However, I can assure you racism is alive and well. First we got a call, ready for this? from the president of a local bank. He said don’t send him to the bank of to my home. The receptionist asked why. She thought maybe he had done something wrong. The bank president said tell the owner to call me. When I called, he said, “No offense but wrong color”. I could make an issue out of it and lose a good client or just send one of the other guys, which I did. It irked me no end, because we all really like him, but whatever. A motel manager did the same thing. I guess 2 out of the 6 years he worked for us isn’t that bad.
