The story is shocking enough, even without bringing race into it: on the way to school in Ocala, FA, a thirteen-year-old girl was beaten unconscious and reportedly went into a seizure after being attacked on the school bus by a group of fellow students.
The girl reportedly was riding the bus for the first time. Someone threw a shoe at her, and she threw it back, hitting a student. That's when the beating began. At least seven students surrounded the girl, punched her, held her head to the floor by her hair, and kicked her. The bus driver pulled the bus over, stopped the beating, and then continued driving. But the beating started again, so the driver diverted to a nearby school and called officials, and the girl was taken to the hospital.
Aside from the brutality, there was another troubling fact about this crime -- a fact that predictably did not make it into the news: the attackers were black, and the victim was white. Yet, for the first few days after the attack, not a single news outlet reported on the race of the victim. Since the attack occurred, only one news item has even indirectly mentioned the victim's race. This can't be because the information was hard to come by. The Ocala Sheriff's Office responded to my inquiry about the victim's race within hours.
Many well-meaning people will ask why race matters. Violence is violence, and people are people, so why bring race into it? I sympathize with that sentiment. The trouble is that, if the races were reversed, this would be a larger story. It would be a larger story because we have a system of racial double standards -- some written, some unwritten -- that serve to conceal the reality of crimes like this...

In a lot of those situations, white faces are very, very few and far between. I went to a football game once; the team and band on the far side of the field was a sea of black. The band had a single white member, a girl with long, flaxen hair. Mostly she kept to herself. Once or twice she spoke to the musicians on the benches in front of her (she was up in the top two rows of benches, pretty much by herself with the other Omegas). She looked like the loneliest kid in America.
Odds are the girl on the bus was, likewise, alone and friendless.
Yes, and if so, her parents need to have their heads examined for sacrificing their own daughter on the altar of political correctness for putting her on that bus.
So, the fact that the next sentence he posted was “Stop focusing on these stories because there’s some really good stuff on TV right now” did not make you realize that the poster was ridiculing the MSM’s reaction to stories such as these? I thought that it was clear that the post was dripping with sarcasm.
wouldn’t of ?
wouldn’t have?
:-)
There was an anonymous authored book written in 1972 that had a situation in which the parents of a small little white girl ignored her complaints of harassment and fondling by the “Amish” boys at school because it would be racist to complain about it...
1972.
Prescient.
The name can’t even be mentioned here, though, because the book has the general reputation of being “racist”. Yes, it is. But there are a lot of scenarios laid out in it that we’re seeing come to fruition.
They are brought up to hate Whitey and they will turn on their own kind for any deviation from that theme.
Take these incidents and try to imagine the day the Peach cards don’t swipe at the sto no mo. Its coming.
I’ve got some department of justice statistics for you both -
in the event that an interracial violent crime occurs,
it is 10 times more likely that a black person is committing violence on a white person than the other way around.
Now, Jay Santos CP, where did your “just as likely” come from?
And the MSM is culpable in not reporting the news. Non-Amish kids continue to be led by PCness like lambs into lions’ dens.
I'm not making excuses, but it would seem that, like that long-ago band member, she had parents who either 1) believed the liberal bull or 2) she was a child of a single-parent family "trapped behind enemy lines" without options or resources. It happens. Look at the Afrikaners now. Where will they go? The educated or endowed ones may move overseas to Australia, those with savings may be able to get out, but considerable numbers are going to be left behind to slake the race-hate of the (equally immigrant) black Xhosas who run the ANC and PAN parties.
If I was in that situation (trapped behind “enemy lines” with no resources) I’d take a bus to a red state with my daughter, and throw myself on the charity of a church until I had my feet underneath me again. No way would I live where my daughter would be the only white face on a bus, daily. You might as well send her into a minefield with your best wishes.
“I thought that it was clear that the post was dripping with sarcasm.”
My sarcasm detector works sporatically.
There are schools in this nation that are so dangerous and morally and educationally so toxic that it would be better for the child to never attend! No scholarship, award, sports team, arts program, or anything else is worth it. This seems to be one of those schools.
Illiteracy and innumeracy would be better than send a child ( white or black) into this school. Illiteracy and innumeracy can usually be fixed. The emotional, spiritual, and education scars inflicted by schools, such as described in this article, often last a lifetime, even eternally.
The son of a friend was attacked in the hallway of his school by a group of black teens. They broke his femur and beat him badly. He was in the hospital for several weeks. The judge found the youths guilty but gave them a suspended sentence. They were transferred to another school where they could terrorize other unsuspecting students.
But...The most astonishing thing is that my friend sent her son back into the same government school! The parents’ reasoning was that it had a gifted and talented program, of which her son was a member, and they felt it would improve his chances of being accepted by an Ivy League school. ( He wasn't.)
It must have been so ‘light’ that it went right over my head!
Mutatis mutandis, as Bill Buckley would say, if the roles were reversed, the girl's mother would be in Al Sharpton's or Jesse Jackson's (Jr.'s or III's) office right this morning in Beefathon mode, looking for white money.
Common misspelling or typo for "would've".
Oops...
I’m just going to have to get that sarcasm detector looked at. Know any good mechanics?
You freepers that are ganging up on the orginal poster for fighting back about his grammar skills are just like the gang on the bus, an interesting dynamic.
Because they would face serious jail time and have a hate crime on the record.
And because they were more afraid for themselves.
The oppressive white man actually tried to prosecute the Amish yoot, for the sneak attack 6 on 1 head stomping fun they love so much.
Well 0pugh and Cankles wouldn't hear of it so they called Lizze for party favors, and marched on the town enmasse.
Not bad pay for attacking an unconscious white kid. Jener sicks attacker shows off his beat whitey bling.
The result is large numbers of rabid sociopaths being bred in our inner cities.
