A 32-year-old Marine was beaten by a group of men outside of a Mississippi restaurant after he was warned it wasn't safe for white people in the wake of the Michael Brown killing in Missouri, the serviceman's friend claims.

Ralph Weems, an Iraq war veteran, was in fair condition at North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo, a hospital spokeswoman said Monday. But his brother-in-law said that Weems had undergone brain surgery. The hospital would not respond to The Associated Press regarding that claim.

A 22-year-old man was busted in the beating and other arrests likely are coming soon, cops say.

"This does not appear to be a hate crime," West Point Police Chief Tim Brinkley said in a press release,

Of course if it had been 20 white men beating on one black man, then it WOULD have been a hate crime.

The people who committed the crime.

Any other questions?

Look, I know what you mean, but there is no excuse for what took place.

I’m sick and tired of having to blame the victim because they didn’t avoid crime.

If a woman is out and raped, is she at fault for not staying home?

Although I am in no way excusing this, but if you are warned by somebody that you are in danger and you disregard the danger, who’s fault is that?

I may be naive, but it seems to me that the fault is that of the black mob for creating the danger to begin with.

That statement is incredibly shocking.

What would it take for this to have been a hate crime then?

Was he offensive to blacks?
Did he insult a black person inside?
Did he make disparaging remarks against blacks?
Did he spill something on a black person?
Did he try to steal the woman of a black man?
Did he do anything to inspire the attack?
Did he steal something from a black?

No.

So absent all this there is only one reason for the attack?

Incredibly, this nut-job couldn’t add two and two come up with four.

“Indeed. Weems would then be charged with a “hate crime” for defending himself against the mob.”

Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

Can this country finally admit that Blacks are THE racists?

Jesse JackA$$ (or some other race-baiter) declared that “only whites can be racists because they have all the power”.

Well since the commieRATbastard has been POTUS and “My People” Holder top cop, it has become Black-Run-America and THEY now have “all the power”. By their own definition, they are now the racists.

I wasn’t asking whose fault it was for assaulting him. I was asking whose fault it was for disregarding a clear warning.

As much as it I one’s right to have freedom of movement, it’s just not always a good idea.

It is just more black people doing what black people do these days. Packing those chips around on their shoulders makes them cowardly and violent.

I've wondered how anyone can say with a straight face that blacks are a powerless, disenfranchised people when we have a black President, a black attorney general, and under a previous administration we had 2 black secretaries of state. Black political activists must live in a perpetual time warp when all of America is Selma in 1965.

Well, I didn't see a bunch of white people rioting, looting, and calling for justice to those blacks who beat this guy to a pulp. Until that happens, the beatings, killings, knockout game victims, and black on black, and black on white violence will continue. Obama, holder, jarrett, and their MSM bootlickers will keep stirring the pot, until it boils over, just to create the crisis they need to implement their plans.

Is sad that sometimes to make a point a few people that are lawless have to be killed.

The county live in is prime example. For awhile there were two groups in two different vehicles riding the county looking for places to burglarize. Police knew whom they were and even warned them a few times. Warning were to no avail and a few had to die because the citizenry of the country prepared and watched.

If I was warned not to go in, I would not of gone in. I don’t need an ass kicking to prove anything. Human bodies aren’t built for that.

Is sad Ralph was not carrying a 15 shot .40 caliber. Different outcome would have been nice and justified.Wrong. The Marine had a CCW on him and identified his license and his firearm to responding officers at IHOP. When released from the field interview, they two whites left and were assaulted at HuddleHouse.

I have no idea why the firearm wasn't employed on the mob. I would have. Was he suprised in the john? Sucker punched? Bum rushed? Who knows?
