Man In Critical Condition After Mob Beating
AP ^ | December 27, 2005 | The Associated Press

MILWAUKEE -- It's the latest in a series of mob beatings in Milwaukee.

This time, according to police, at least 15 young people dragged a man out of his car and kicked and punched him -- after the man honked at them to get them to move out of a street.

The beating left the 50-year-old man with severe head trauma. He's hospitalized in critical condition and police said it's not clear if he'll survive.

No arrests have been made.

Three years ago, more than a dozen people chased a man through the streets of Milwaukee and beat him to death with shovel handles, rakes and tree limbs. Most of the attackers were young boys.

And last year, a man with schizophrenia died after being beaten and robbed by a group of assailants. Six teens were charged and one has been convicted.

"African-American Youth assume it's their god given right to walk in the road."

I'm just wondering who's teaching to ride bicycles against traffic, like they're pedestrians or something. That's going to get somebody killed.

I've been in that area more than once after dark ..20 yrs ago
it was a hostile place to be..especially with the wrong skin color...

With a whole new generation of gang bangers and thugs on the street these days...

You don't wanna be there after dark...and certainly not after 11PM...

imo

I floored it and watched guys go flying in both directions. I didn't have any dings, but I wasn't worried about that anyway.

And if all else fails a Glock 10mm is your friend.

"This bike was going toward incoming traffic."

It happens more often than not, in town, where I am. I've ceased being surprised, but I am surprised that more of them haven't been killed.

"Shoulda' locked his doors and put the pedal to the metal."

About the time somebody tried to drag me out of my car, I'm pretty sure I would do just that.

Agree ....not happy about renting my RKBA's from the state at all but it's the best game in town right now while I fight the polidiots to make it a gimmie as does Alaska & Vermont etc .....

If I get near a big city I swap the 1911A1 for a high capacity nine loaded with 147gr OSM and three spare mags for just the reason mentioned in this article. Albeit I am aware of the ballistics of a 2 ton vehicle doing 30mph being a bit better than a 230gr slug from 45 acp doing +/- 850fps. Guns as taught are a very "last resort" for me.

In my opinion, everyone except convicted criminals and the insane should have the right keep a handgun in their vehicle.

Not enough. I'm too old to take a chance. I keep a loaded 9 round short barrel Mossburg pump loaded with #2 buck shot. Sits right in the middle of the two front seats. I'm not going to die because of some idiots idea of PC.

My thoughts exactly when I read this. I am going to recall this for future reference (& use), that if I am ever in a similar situation, the strategy is.... FLOOR IT & DON'T WORRY ABOUT ANY THUMPS YOU MIGHT HEAR! I would rather have the odds of my SUV vehicle against 15 thugs on foot. The odds cease however if you stop & try to reason with young racist (black or white or any color) thugs to "would you so kindly move? You're blocking my vehicle!" Just floor it and watch them scatter!

You KNOW, because it wasn't stated in the article, that the assailants were black, and the victim was some other race.

Otherwise, it would have been clearly stated.

The day before Christmas Eve, I had to stop at Walmart after work to get a few last minute items. While pulling past the front of the store, 6-8 "black youths" on foot stopped right in the middle of the traffic lane to "chat". After waiting 30 second or so for them to move on, and while several other vehicles backed up on both sides of the chatting "youths", I tapped my horn lightly "beep beep" to encourage them to move along.

You should have heard the foul, racist, and infuriating language directed at me for having the nerve to ask them to get out of the road.

Well, I was just coming off duty (I'm a part-time cop) and was still in uniform. So I got out of my car - instant silence from the "youths". Calmly and politely, I advised the nice young people to "move along before you spend Christmas in jail." Amazing how quickly the street cleared.

You have to stay calm, and remember: LEAD THEM A BIT MORE!
That should help you get your limit.
Sarcasm ON (I think?)

LOL

I never thought of that -- next time, a little patience.

But then you get the race pimps and no good can come of that.

Anyone who would defend a quadruple murderer would have no problem going after some white guy defending his life.

First round should be a slug.

Race doesn't matter -- the problem is the collapse of civilization in the cities.

And for that 'collapse'; we can thank a Liberal and Liberalism. . .the underlying problem. . .to the 'problem'.

What is the status of ccw (concealed carry) in Wisc?

This need not have happened. I doubt even the Frogs would stand for too much of this. At least without whipping out a white hanky.
