Eyewitness: Root of fair violence needs examining
JS Online ^ | 8/5/11 | Andy Lane

Posted on 08/06/2011 2:45:59 AM PDT by Kartographer

Out of nowhere, a kid punched me in the side of the head through my open window. One blind swing, and he ran away.

At the same time, a youth attacked a car two in front of us. He broke the driver-side window, kicked the car and reached inside. The car pulled out to escape the attack. The car in front of me then pulled forward and hesitated. Worried that the mob might come around to the passenger side of my car and attack my wife, I pulled around the car in front of me, crossed over lanes and turned onto a freeway ramp to make sure we were out of there.

This dude isn’t only a liberal, but he is also really stupid. Why even let him have a drivers’ license?

we could have taken the kid who hit me home with us and shown him care, concern and support.

If it had been me, I'd have ran him over.

What possessed the group to go there in the first place, and that not as individual or family visitors or tourists, but as a gang with the bullying of white people on their minds? What ever did the fair do to them that was (pardon the pun) unfair?

And if they did? He’d probably just call it a tragic isolated incident or some whitewash.

Can someone tell me why this gang, as a gang (I’m not talking about sensible black people) would have wanted to go to the fair at all? Black-specific exhibits?

(Oh, and my affirmation of non-racism: SENSIBLE black people would be welcome. They wouldn’t be bent on raising hell with white people, or anyone else for that matter.)

I left Memphis when I had to try to run over a yut attempting to carjack my car. He jumped in front of my car and went for his pocket. I ducked and pointed my car in his direction. To this day, I'm not so sure I didn't run over his foot. I did inform the police and they told me to call them if he showed up in my own OR.

Don’t the sterotypes usually go together anyway?

“If it had been me, I’d have ran him over. “

This is just plain wrong.

In the past perfect tense you don’t say “would have ran,” you say “would have run.”

I’d have run him over, too.

IMO, the parts about feeling “sad” and wanting to cuddle the kid were embellishments meant to reestablish his PC cred for even thinking about rolling up his window.

While he wouldn't ACTUALLY take the thug home (where the terrorizing would continue ending in robbery or worse), the fact that he feeeeeeeeeels that he ought to makes him a good person. (Live conservative, talk liberal, vote for someone else to do the work.)

A large crowd like that?

The perfect opportunity for predators to hang out undetected until they attack and maim or kill.

At the very least, they’ll get a few chuckles out of it.

Hey, that;s the way it is these days. I’ve been locking my car doors even if it;s sunny and nice...
What can you say?

Gun sales will soon go thru the roof. Seriously.

Our conversation on the way home would have been about how much damage a .45 hollow-point fired from point blank range can actually do to a the head.

"I'm white, and I know I can't relate to whatever it is that incited and enraged those kids. But our conversation on the way home was that we wished we could have taken the kid who hit me home with us and shown him care, concern and support."

LOL! Can't...breathe!...LOL! Ahem... Now excuse me while I load up another mag and throw it on the stack.

This sounds like a sizable group, not your compact wolf pack, and other reports seem to have it that the fair was trying to get “integrated” somehow. I’d like to know how, say if liberal airheads in the middle of it all funneled a bunch of free tickets to Jesse Jackson types or “God damn America” preachers or worse?

It’s got zero to do with politics, and you are putting yourself at risk if you think so.

It has to do with thugs who think (and are probably right) that they can get away with it.
