The St. Louis police chief has asked for the FBI's help investigating what he believes was a hate crime attack against a woman in the same Bosnian neighborhood where a man was beaten to death days earlier by hammer-wielding teens, and where assaults have spiked dramatically in recent months.

The 26-year-old Bosnian-American woman told police she was stopped in her car by three African-American teens early Friday morning in the city's Bevo Mill section, where tens of thousands of Bosnians settled following the civil war in the former Yugoslavia 20 years ago. .....

I guess even the St. Louis cops can't look the other way on this one. The Bosnian community needs to be arming itself and going out only in groups.

From Wikipedia:
As such, Bosnian Muslims comprise the single largest religious group in Bosnia and Herzegovina (the other two large groups being Eastern Orthodox Christians (31%) and Roman Catholics (15%))

I’d be careful. Those Bosnians still have their ethnic cleansing skills. And I’ll bet the Serbs were tougher opponents.

certainly there are some bad cops on power trips.

But for the most part America does not have a police problem as much as it has a black culture problem.

Broken families galore, viewing success in school and elsewhere as acting white, overdependence on government, obsessing over mostly imagined victimization, not teaching ones children to respect the law and romanticizing violent behavior. That’s the root of the ferguson problem and most other problems involving blacks and the police.

The Bosnians need to be 100% CCW. The first few carjackers to get blown away will shut this stuff down.

NO ONE in the media brought up what happened to the Bosnian man last week, he was beaten to death with hammers by three black thugs..NO ONE in the media, including Fox News, even bothered to mention his name..he came to this country legally, fled ethnic cleansing in Bosnia just to be slaughtered in the streets of St. Louis by black thugs..guess Bosnian lives don’t matter

And the FBI is part of Holder's DOJ. Will they investigate impartially or make sure that nothing inconvenient is reported for the current agent provocateurs in charge?

We have to put an end to this concept of “hate crimes”. Pulling a woman out of her car and beating her is a crime. Why does it matter what the motivation of the assailant was? If these thugs pulled the woman out of her car because they love Bosnian cuisine and folk-songs and then beat her it would still be the same crime.

It is a very short step from prosecuting a hate crime to prosecuting hate speech (such as portions of the King James Bible.)

I agree. I’ve had quite a few interactions with Bosnians. This is not an ethnic group I would be picking a fight with.

Bosnians are mostly muslim, Croats are mostly Catholic, and Serbs are mostly Orthodox.

“Bosnian-American”

So, do such people just LOOK Bosnian or are they actually from Bosnia?

“African-American”

Same article, I do not know what to think! Must be from the African continent. Hope they do not have Ebola.

Exactly.

I hate this hate-crime nonsense. No, really, I do.

The Bosnian immigrants arrived long after the abolition of slavery. Yet their skin color makes them a target anyway.

These lowlife thugs aren't attacking us because of slavery anyway. That's just the excuse for their behavior.

They know it just like we do. We know them when we see them, and it isn't the skin color that's the problem. Many of the lowlife thugs wear suits and work in the government, but we still 'see' them. We're not fooled by the color of their skin, be it white or black or anything else.

It is their actions we go by.

They are from the Balkans, and the men from there are big on revenge.
