I know who committed the real crime. The journalist who dared to write about it.

Race war is coming. Get prepared.
To: Raebie
at least 100 young people walking on the sidewalk. Rostami locked her car door. Someone threw a rock at her window. Forster got out to confront the rock-thrower, and that's when the beating began. Anybody else see the major mistake here?

happened here a coupla years ago... someone threw a brick at a passing car, and when the guy stopped, 17 youths drug him out of his car and beat him into a coma for the crime of being white....... if a group throws something at your vehicle, put it in drive and stomp on the gas... if you run someone over, so be it..... that is the lesson I learned ( if you have a 4wd vehicle, lock it in first)

Neglected to hit the ‘excerpt’ checkbox. Much more at the link.

The next day, Forster searched Twitter for mention of the attack.
One post chilled him.
“I feel for the white man who got beat up at the light,” wrote one person.
“I don’t,” wrote another, indicating laughter. “(do it for trayvon martin)”

And she wouldn’t have done so if they hadn’t been journalists and friends of hers.
To: Graybeard58
Anybody else see the major mistake here? Actually, I see two. 1. Avoid areas where there could be potentially 100 young people walking on the sidewalk. 2. Don't let your pride overrule your common sense. Confronting 100 young people is not a good idea. Very poor odds.

From the article:
The officer pointed to public housing in the area and said large groups of teenagers look for trouble on the weekends. "It's what they do," he told Forster.
Perhaps it's time for some decent people to get themselves properly equipped, head into that area, and teach "they" some manners. It's obvious that the entire law enforcement community has failed in their duty with regard to "they".

?
The paper didn’t want to report on this crime because it could be veiwed as treating its employees differently?
what utter BS
truky the media has sunk to the lowest level possible.
and No of course this attack wasn’t racially motivated, [sarc]

See. There you go. Clearly the people in the car were asking for it after what they did to poor little Trayvon.

Idiot.
Tactically, this wasn't the smartest thing to do, unarmed, but at least this guy had the balls to stand up to thugs, something which is increasingly rare these days. I'm going to save my disgust for the crowd of thugs that earned it.
