The most shocking thing to me isn't a black mob beating up a white guy; isn't that a common event these days?

The real shocking thing about this story is that the kid's DAD was with him.

You’re damn skippy it’s one-sided, and what’s most frustrating is that the unarmed side (unarmed in the sense of equal protection before the law) won’t even acknowledge it, at least not many of them. Also, the propaganda being sold tells the exact opposite story-Goebbel’s “Big Lie”.

[mrsmel]

I can tell you one easy clue-anything called “Martin Luther King” blvd, st, etc.

[Bon of Babble]

This was national news, right? CNN and MSNBC were right on it, right?

RIGHT??

//is a sarc tag really necessary here??

[mrsmel]

I will say that this would have been unlikely in a white neighborhood regardless of the race of the driver

That much is undeniable. But I still believe this man got more of a beat-down than a black would have. My anecdotal evidence is that whites re getting beat down and killed by black packs as a regular occurrence in the last few years, just for being somewhere they had a right to be, and a right to be expect to be safe in.

Almost same MO as Reginald Denny.

you’re so right.....you go to Chinatown and you can go to Little Italy and you can go to Olivera Street and you’re welcomed, wanted.....nothing more needs to be said...

[mrsmel]

Just like pulling Reginald Denny from a truck and beating him to a pulp was a “justified” response to perceived unfairness.

[Dagnabitt]

Appears the driver’s route took him to the wrong side of the Bell Curve.

Prayers up for this man’s recovery, for solace for his loved ones, and for those who attacked him that they might see the Light of Christ and turn from their hateful ways.

Just watched a news video about this...at the end it said the “little boy” was being held by police on an unrelated charge and that they were investigating him for his role in the beating. Apparently the “little boy” isn’t a little angel.

[mrsmel]

LOL, in Oakland, a pack of “youths” held up a Spanish-language filming crew and made off with their cameras and other equipment. They’re lucky they weren’t killed anyway.

[cherry]

ah....no....they stole his wallet,his cell phone....this was just pure black mob on single white victim, nothing more....they get away with this because they won't work...they hang out at gas stations which is their social life apparently...

the only crime committed was them beating nearly to death an innocent man...

[mrsmel]

I agree, if you can get the he**out of there without being traced. He tried to do the right thing, at the potential cost of his life.

[mrsmel]

I’m grateful that I can do the same in my state.

[mrsmel]

They have one scam going where they tailgate you trying to provoke an accident, so they can hit the “ghetto lotto”.

[Mathews]

I agree with you. Pretty rough part of town situated a couple miles N.W. of Grosse Point. Wrong side of 94 for sure.

[mrsmel]

When do other people get to pay the “karma police” for their episodes of slavery, as all cultures and peoples have at one point practiced it (including on whites, whether other whites or Muslims), and aome still do? Why only YT, the only ones who ever shed their own blood to put a stop to it? And have paid billions in “reparations” in one form or another ever since? Wven to countries like Haiti, where the whites (including children) were slaughtered? (They let some of the women live, as breeding fodder).

When I was dealing with my Auto Insurance company on a totalled truck, the adjustor told me it is common in Detroit for the “natives” to walk out in front of traffic hoping to get hit so they can get a pile of cash.

I just shook my head...

[Smokin' Joe]

So... did they steal/strip the truck?

[mrsmel]

Also Derbyshire Rules-don’t be a “good samaritan”. The risk is no longer worth it.
