This seems intentionally contrived by the media to appear as it were white men assaulting a white woman. Is it just me ?

Very peculiar. I did, indeed, think the perps had to be white, else why would a black guy assault an woman for dating black? Without the pictures, I would have never known.

Yes, I assumed it was some rednecks until I saw the names.

Yes I can she that.

The article shows the perps.

I agree. The impression given is that this was perpetrated by white racists in retaliation for a white woman dating black men.

Maybe if the article came out thirty or forty years back.

Nowadays, it's hard to know what to assume.

I did see the pictures before I read the article, though, so maybe that's just me.

Yup—that is exactly what I thought. Until I saw the pics of the perps.
