A man was fatally beaten near the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia when a group of men attacked him, mistakenly thinking that he was yelling at them instead of a cab driver who passed him by.

Kevin Kless, 23, recently graduated from college and had left a bar with his girlfriend early Saturday morning when the incident occurred

Well, I have to say the black guy looks the most manly of the three; the one on the left looks like a flaming queer and the one in the middle looks like he’s a couple of chromosomes short of a full genome. I’m guessing low IQ plus Latin machismo proved a deadly combination...

How long until a white diversity quota is required in all criminal arrests? That being some unrelated white guy has to be charged as well, just to make social justice fair.

Notice the key words in this article.........."Mistaken, in response to being yelled at", as though the response to being yelled at is understandable(disrespected) and the mistaken beating and outcome was just that, a mistake and the result of being too white and too frail with a big mouth.

I get yelled at during work and deal with it. That's why I stay employed. I do not respond to being yelled at with any visible reaction whatsoever.

In the FBI statistic these murderers will be listed as “white” offenders. If they were victims, they would be listed as “Hispanic.” How could white-on-white be a hate crime? It’s not like the dead man was gay or anything.

So sadly true, comrade. Welcome to the USSA, where PC rerverse racism is the state religion.

“Is no place sacred?”

Anyone who thinks a public street anywhere in the United States or most of Europe is safe is just a victim-in-waiting. Travel in groups and go armed. Keep your counter-predator radar on at all times.

(If you can’t go armed, don’t go.)

From your link.

Police recently revised the description of the suspects' possible vehicle, originally saying it was a four-door maroon Mazda sedan but changing the make and model to undetermined. They also revised the victims' descriptions, first saying they appeared to be of Middle Eastern or Indian descent, then saying that they were light-skinned and possibly Hispanic. Grainy surveillance camera footage likely complicated these issues.

This was really the first response by the police ? Seems like a lot of PC wishful thinking.

I had no idea that Philadelphia was so dangerous. I guess I won’t be going there any time soon.

That is funny and I have a right to say so.

You had an excuse. You'd be amazed how many people in Philly don't realize it or are in denial. Kinda like a wildebeest herd that doesn't realize that the lion can't kill every one of them on a particular day. Thank goodness for the Pennsylvania constitution and the hard work of PA gun advocates. Amazingly, the last time I looked, there were only 29000 licenses to carry firearms issued in Philly.

Did it happen on one of the many MLK boulevards?

Anyone still having a dream?

"Is nowhere sacred" is a funny question given the shootings, bombings, burning or what have you that have occurred in churches.

A treasured piece of state, perhaps national history, The Liberty Bell is not sacred even with a verse from Leviticus inscribed upon it.

Got to be kidding, how could anyone do such a thing—ANYWHERE?!

I know, I was thinking what a stupid headline that is. Also, what does his graduation have to do with it?

It is only a matter of time until Sharpton and Jackson are packing their bags for the City of Brotherly Love. Of course, they will be there to affirm that civility and justice is afforded to the three perps - not to be confused with going their to see that justice is done in the name of the victim.

If the perps are black and the victim white you won’t hear about it at all.
