There would have been dead skinnys and lots of empty shell casings around the injured boy as the cops arrived if it had been me.

“Seriously though, I would not be shocked to discover that the boy stepped out and got hit on purpose. I used to flip houses in the part of town that was 95% black. It was an almost daily occurrence that a 13-40 year-old male would step in front of my truck on the thoroughfare. It was a power play to make me stop. You could lay on the horn and they would never even look up.”

I Bklyn, laying on the horn when the ferals played their game would get you beat up. That’s what they want. Any excuse.

Yea, and she had a film crew there for protection.

I made a habit of open carry on the property, as I worked outside for the first couple of weeks. That usually did the trick in preventing attempts on me, but not always.

I had a mag full of hollow-points in the pistol on me and a riot gun full of buck-shot in the back seat. I wasn't planning on taking the beating.

him being beaten by the black mob was definitely a hate crime - I do not know about the car accident though

Yup, in minneapolis, I remember seeing black moms walk into a busy street with a baby in a stroller with no pause, no looking around even.

Seriously though, I would not be shocked to discover that the boy stepped out and got hit on purpose. I used to flip houses in the part of town that was 95% black. It was an almost daily occurrence that a 13-40 year-old male would step in front of my truck on the thoroughfare. It was a power play to make me stop. You could lay on the horn and they would never even look up. The only time they ever looked up was when they ID'd the driver before stepping out.

I've seen it frequently, black teens walking across the street, giving a "screw you" attitude towards drivers.

I'm wondering, though, if it was deliberate: either get the driver to stop (at which point he gets surrounded and beaten, as a variation of the "knockout game"), or get hit by the car as an insurance scam.

No. This would have turned out exactly the same way if the driver were black

I do not agree. He was white, and one of "their" kids were injured. That is reason enough to kill him, and, of course, take his money, jewelry, phone, and tools, if they were really angry.

“Southerners” did pick their own cotton, the rich plantation owners were not usually “Southern” born, just land barrons.

But your statement on slavery is correct. Slavery may be something the Karma Police never let us pay back completely.

In Russia, they have turned "getting deliberately hit to collect insurance" into a frequent-enough practice that Russian drivers keep dash-cams turned on, to record any such incidents.

That explains all the “Best Russian Car Crashes” videos on YouTube.

I attempted to post on this yesterday, the post was apparently rejected, I have no idea why. My post listed 20 mainstream media links, not one mentioned race as a possible issue (maybe i’m not allowed to post all those links?). This story from CBS is the first I’ve heard of which even mentions the possibility of race as a factor.

In New York, a Jewish driver hitting a black teen resulted in the "Crown Heights Riot" pogrom against the ultra-orthodox community in Brooklyn.

The existence of a video of the entire incident, even showing the child stepping out, begs the question the police and media probably will not ask: why was video being shot BEFOREHAND? Unless there is a very good answer, the person shooting the video knew something was about to happen.

Smells like the kid was told to step out in front of the next honkey, to make him stop so the mob could attack.

Why would anyone drive through these crime zones?

Maybe there should be street signs warning whites not to drive beyond a certain point in inner cities, for their own safety. Maybe “whites and Asians.”

Watch the video. It shows him standing on the curb with a group of older boys watching the traffic go by.

The older boys told him what car/truck to walk into.

You will also notice he didn’t walk out in front of traffic in a way that would likely get you killed, he walked into the side of the truck as it passed. He was coached!
