Where's Jesse? Where's Al? Where's the NAACP? Ohh, that's right. The NAACP says they are "withholding judgement" as to whether or not this is a hate crime. Bet if the perps were 30 white youths and the vics were three innocent black girls, they'd find some "judgement." In this case, Jesse would only probably show up for the perps.
Everyone, if you haven't been following this story and would like to know more, here are some more links.
The victims share stories of the attack : here
Long Beach officials want a Hate Crime definition so tight it would not include the Reginald Denny beating in the Rodney King riots: here
Excellent report on the neighborhood "Kumbaya" meeting in which the local councilwoman attacked the media, saying she didn't want this "incident" to get as much coverage as it has; said meeting was NOT supposed to get out beyond those "directly affected" (because surely no one in SoCal needs to know that white teens can be marauded by wild packs of murderous black youths): here
Here is the Long Beach Press Telegram's public spanking of the councilwoman: here
NAACP does a little tap-dancing but condemns the vicious attack: here

Have Sharpton and Jackson expressed their outrage yet?
Yeah, you just have to look at the Duke case to prove that. In the Duke case there is no evidence that a crime even took place and yet they are all guilty even the ones that can prove they weren't there.
Black youths mob and attack innocent white girls Long Beach Hate Crime PING!
These are the "folks" that will keep the dreaded "N" word alive and appropriate.
Semper Fi
I look forward to the new leadership of Congress to call for a hate crime investigation of this incident.
Not.
Er, they didn't? ...They didn't report on it at all? ...Hmmmmm.
Oh well, I bet the REST of the MSM was all over it, right?
No, you say? Hmmmmm....
Has it attracted nationwide attention? I don't watch much TV, but I've only heard about it through your posts. Good point about the Reverend Jesse Jackson and Al Sharptongue. I was thinking similarly. They'll probably be raising funds and counseling the disaffected yutes.

Brave people. Nice to see good rise up in the face of evil.
If it is wrong and a hate crime for whites to beat up on blacks, it is just as wrong for blacks to beat up on whites.
Jackson, the liberal media, the civil rights punks, would be a bit more believable if they applied their "rules" to all evenly. Their silence in this matter shows their ulterior motives and their silence implies an acceptance of this behaviour, which will embolden others to do the same.
I live in northern LA County and this is the first I have heard/read about the incident. This is appalling. Sadly, I am not surprised that it hasn't gotten coverage, even up here.
How come gloria allred isn't sueing the mob??
The perpetrators came from a chaotic and prison-like land to America. And having arrived there, apparently they are eagerly seeking out the one little American cranny that is familiar to them --PRISON.
They're busy crucifying Kramer.
The evidence that "Our Diversity is Our Strength" simply keeps mounting. Amazing, and to think our ancestors did not know this fact!
This type of attack was a long time coming. In my opinion, this will only be the first. Black youths have been told for years that whitey is keeping them down, that whitey wants to keep them out of college, that whitey is responsible for not giving them the money to make them "rich", that whitey "repressed" their people for generations, that whitey is the devil himself.
You keep this up all day, every day, and then add the "gansta" crap that they keep listening to and you have an explosive mixture that results in this sort of attack.
What does Sharpton and Jackson expect? This is what they have worked for all these years. What they still don't realize is that all their rhetoric has meaning to this teenage idiots. To them it's a way to get on TV and make money, to these kids, those words mean something and creates hatred for the evil whitey.
Conceal and carry, keep repeating these words.
This isn't an isolated incident. Similar thing happened twice in Las Vegas this year, one where a group of black youths swarmed a parking attendant at a major hotel and beat and kicked him -- all caught on tape and then again this summer when they swarmed downtown and into a casino -- I believe a person died in that incident. Last month a similar attack happened at an upscale mall in Jackson, Miss.
