Post-Dispatch reporter recovering after attack while covering Ferguson
St Louis Post Dispatch ^ | 8/10/15 | Kim Bell

Posted on 08/11/2015 2:36:21 AM PDT by markomalley

Post-Dispatch reporter Paul Hampel was beaten, bloodied and robbed by a group of attackers as he covered the Ferguson protests Sunday night. Hampel said he was taking photos and videos of break-ins along West Florissant Avenue shortly before he was attacked. Suddenly, he said, he was rushed from behind.

“I got swarmed, beaten down really bad,” he said.

The attackers punched him in the face, hit him in the head at least three times and kicked him in the back of the head when he was on the ground, Hampel said.

The attackers took his phone and wallet and left. Hampel headed back to the police line and encountered New York Times photographer Whitney Curtis. He told her he needed an ambulance.

——The attackers——

Actually, the boys that beat him up were common thieves, feral denizens of the Ferguson streets who know their lives really don’t matter

Liberal reporter attacked for being white by street savages. Think he will start writing about why there are hordes of feral lowlifes swarming the streets and preying on whites?

“Just an English speaking African?”

Depends on what your definition of “English” is.

Don’t give me that look in your eyes. You were up to no good and the crowd knew it.

Reporter Paul Hampel is one of our white, liberal canaries in the leftist coal mines (cities). When they start getting robbed, raped and murdered, we’ll know it’s time to ring the warning bell and set up the barricades.

I have my doubts, though, that the black savages can make it through the Mexican neighborhoods surrounding them. Mexican gangs have no warm and fuzzy feelings toward blacks. This is where the first battles of CW II will take place.

A bicyclist in Minneapolis was attacked yesterday by someone in a white Ford SUV. The bicyclist was struck in the face by a large chunk of concrete and was severely injured.

I Googled “Minneapolis bike attack” and found other similar incidents had occurred.

There are many, many black on white attacks every day in America. The press and the politicians do their best to cover them up. We have an epidemic of black on white crime that is being hidden from the average American.
