Another Alleged Bus Beating In Baltimore Thursday, December 13, 2007 WBAL Radio and TV
There has apparently been another bus beating on an MTA bus in Baltimore.
WBAL-TV reports that two men aboard the #64 bus in Brooklyn claim they were attacked by a group of 7 black teens. The two men say they were attacked because they were white. They also claim the bus driver refused to call police for them.
The two men suffered cuts and bruises.
The MTA says it is investigating the claim.
This comes less than a week after a white woman was beaten on a bus. 9 black middle school students have been arrested in that case.
You’re an engineer I saw so I knew immediately you are must be smarter than I.....Poli Sci/Business ..27 years ago....the highest I got was actually getting accepted to law school.....and flaking out to South America and beyond for the next 17 years
my dad graduated VMI as an engineer....I know it takes a brain and determination
Spent quite a bit of time there early 80’s when dry-docked at the USCG Shipyard, Curtis Bay. It was pretty blue-collar, tough area, even back then.
“Balmur”
Somebody referred to it as “BaltiMordor” and I think that’s close.
“...I wonder if these guys weren’t looking for a fight to start some racial stuff.”
It’s possible, but it’d be really stupid. Now I could see it if they figured they were going to win the fight, but starting a brawl at a disadvantage...good way to end up dead.
Now you know why the left wants to take guns away from law-abiding citizens (code for “White”), and leave them in the hands of criminals. The left hates honest White people and wants them to be beaten senseless and their money taken and given to the criminals.
I was born and raised in Balmore left, in 1960, you do the math.
As my mother would say, it was great until 1968.
My dad even had to stay, armed, with my grandparents (maternal) on the perimeter that year to protect their house.
Another thing I need to ask about this case:
WHY IS THE 1ST ITEM I SEE ON THIS POSTED THURSDAY, when the incident was Monday night?
Unlike the Kreager thing, I have hardly heard or seen anything about this, before Thurs or since. Seems if it was so hot, it would’ve been blurbed on Tues.
What was in 1968??
Pardon my ignorance, I was neither born nor living in Maryland.
1968? Spiro Agnew was still govenor. That ought to tell ya’ how far things have gone.
The Riots.
Pretty much standard in every city that year.
If we start putting sterility drugs in malt liquor we could nip this in the bud... In about 40 years.
OL,
Seems to me that it could have been missed by the media. If it were just your garden variety assault it probably doesn’t make a blip on the violence meter in Baltimore. Possibly the racial component wasn’t covered in the police report?
From the looks of the footage, it seems like these guys called channel 13. In the wake of the Kreager attack, I would have felt compelled to do the same thing so that any other unsuspecting Caucasians didn’t simply walk into a racial beatdown. These guys were lucky to have gotten away with some bruises.
I’m not even sure this has been covered by the Baltimore Sun. Personally, I wouldn’t be surprised if the story were suppressed there. I think there is a subtle racism to that paper.
No biggie! Ain’t a whole lot of other folks that I know of who read or take that paper seriously anyways.
Baltimore is now a black city, where the dominant black culture will continue to do what it has routinely done in our once beautiful cities over all over America. Expect things to get worse — much worse — as today’s dominant black culture increasingly exerts its will on our once great nation.
I grew up in the area of Baltimore where the first black gang bus beating took place a few weeks ago. It was all white — and the good folks who lived there refused to let blacks move in. The residents were brutalized by the liberal media for “bigoty.” Guess it turns out the good folks simpy trying to protect their homes and community from what they knew was inevitable were right all along. Guess the lib media will never admit that now.
Not so, OILine Rebel. Since "hate crime" is now recognized, everyone, including white men and women, have the right to call certain crimes against them "hate crimes".
These recent Baltimore bus attacks, which the black mayor says are NOT hate crimes, reenforces the belief of white folks that hate crime laws were instituted to favor minorities.
They are constitutionally WRONG.
Though the neighborhood where I grew up in Philadelphia was majority white, I'd pass by the homes of black families on my way to school. Eventually, a block of row homes was built nearby. Other than one Jewish family, blacks bought the rest of the homes.
They took good care of their properties just as white folks in the area did. (Interesting note: Wilson Goode, future Philly mayor, lived on that block.)
Following the exodus of white families to the suburbs, some areas of that city have greatly deteriorated, in much the same way as our daughters' bedroom when they reached the pre-teen years. The difference, though, was that did not dare blame it on their parents, the lack of a few cans of paint, or not witnessing any examples of neatness and cleaniness outside their sloppy room.
