HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss. - A man was attacked after walking into a Mississippi club and using racial slurs, police said.
According to police, the attack happened at C.J. Lounge in Marshall County. Police said the man walked into the venue and started using the "N-word" when referring to patrons.
Officers told FOX13 that the man went to the hospital Wednesday, believing he may have a broken jaw. The incident happened late Saturday night. Police are trying to determine if the attack is a hate crime.
Holly Springs Police provided cell phone footage to FOX13, showing a Tippah County man who had been stripped naked. Police said the people who attacked him are seen pouring beer on him in the video. Seconds before that happened, police said the man was kicked and stomped on nearly every part of his body.
"The guy walked in, and he was very aggressive," said Miles Stone. Stone said he was at the club on Memphis Street late Saturday night when the incident happened. "Other guys in the area were listening, trying to remain calm. They asked him to leave quietly."
Police said the Tippah County man continued to call people racial slurs. In another video provided by Holly Springs Police, the man can be seen outside of the bar speaking erratically and throwing what investigators believe to be gang signs.
"When they were scuffling outside, he was still using the N-word: 'F you N's, f you N's.'" Stone said.
Officers said the attackers used poles and sticks to beat the man.
Stone said he doesn't believe the club to be a problem spot. But Holly Springs Police disagree. The police chief estimated that officers had been to about 30 calls at the club in the three months it's been open. Police said they've responded to fights, guns found inside of the venue, and a man being shot in the foot. The police chief said he's pushing the district attorney to declare it as a nuisance.
"I'm not standing for anything like that. However, we have to live with our choices, and he made the choice to go in there aggressively, and he has to live with the choice he's made," Stone said.
Holly Springs Police said they have a person of interest they would like to speak with regarding the incident, but they believe several people are responsible. If you have information, they would like to speak with you.
FOX13 reached out to the bar's owner. We had not heard back by the time this story was published. The business was closed when FOX13 visited Wednesday. Police told FOX13 that the business closed due to operating without a beer or business license.

Whilst I don’t condone violence, ‘twould appear that this “man” got a well-deserved attitude adjustment.
Failed to read the room
Darwin Award winner…
The guy is obviously a super genius. LOL!
Sticks and Poles will break my bones but words will never hurt me, wait... what?
Any injuries were self inflicted.

They can do it, but if a white guy does it, they can beat the sh1t out of him?
Speech should be free, but not necessarily without consequence.
Reverse the races.
Black guy goes into ‘white bar’ and calls people crackers, mofos, etc.
He’s stripped, beaten with canes, all on video.
Now what’d happen?
Feds would come in. Arrest everyone. Prosecute to fullest extent possible. Pundits would condemn. Al Sharpton would be there leading protests and riots calling it a ‘modern day lynching.”
Would you be on here saying he got a “well-deserved attitude adjustment”?
So ... different rules for blacks vs. whites???
Different systems of justice?
I was raised just a few miles east of there.
This guy got off lucky.................
👍
Suicide wish?
Stupid?
Slow learner?
So many questions.
Good point.
It seems that way.
What bet did that guy lose?
Using the “N-word” in place of what it stands for, is the same as using the word it stands for.
Only blacks are allowed to use the real word it stands for.
And non of us can use the real word of “N-word”, because we all know what it really means.
So, can anyone educate us on what the real word is. I’ve forgotten, and my cat is just as curious.
Perhaps the victim was black, hence the potential for hate crime charges? Blacks often use the N-word.
Always bring a pole to a raciss beatdown.

But not all consequences should be permitted.
Shunning a person whose speech offends is one thing. Assaulting them is something else entirely.
