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.

“chief” brinkley is a racist ass.
Thank You. +25 nice.
“David Knighten of West Point told AP earlier by phone that he and Weems had gone to a Waffle House early Saturday. He said a man waved him over outside the restaurant and told him politely that people were upset by the killing of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and it wasn’t a safe place for whites. When he went in, he said, Weems was inside and was arguing with other men”
I went back and copied this from the very first article posted on FR. The way I interpreted the poorly structured paragraph was that the man with Weems was stopped while Weems continued to go into the restaurant. The FRIEND was warned not to go in. When the friend of Weems finished the conversation and entered the Waffle House, Weems was already in there and in the mist of an argument
I hear ya. Negative feedback is a real de-motivator, or perhaps a motivator to move to another county.
walk through their neighborhood and see just how powerless they are.
