Van Jones is a POS.
But I do feel sorry for him, here’s nickle...
In order to "shoot up the whole school", the first thing you have to go to school.
LOL!
From the Long Beach Press Telegram, November 3, 2006 comes a story of three completely innocent white girls being attacked by a brutal MOB of black kids of both sexes:
Victims of attack share their story Crime: 10 arrested after attack on Halloween; $2,500 reward offered for information about other suspects still at large. By Tracy Manzer, Staff writer Article Launched:11/03/2006 10:52:39 PM PST
LONG BEACH - Several suspects including at least three men who savagely beat three young women in a horrific hate crime attack Halloween night remained at large Friday.
The three victims - two of whom are 19 and the third 21 - agreed to sit down with a Press-Telegram reporter and discuss the painful attack in the hope that someone who knows the culprits will turn them in to police.
The young women asked to be identified by only their first names of Laura, Michelle and Lauren because they and their families fear for their safety. The assault, they said, was so savage they thank God they are alive.
`A pack of hyenas’
The victims - along with throngs of other people - had gone to the 3800 block of Linden Avenue around 9:30 p.m. for a popular Halloween block party. As they walked up to an elaborate haunted house, they said, a group of about a dozen males began taunting them.
“They asked us, `Are you down with it?,’ we had no idea what that meant so we didn’t say anything and just walked by them up to the haunted house,” said Laura, “They were grabbing their crotches - we didn’t know if it was a gang thing or what.”
After making their way through a maze at the house, the Advertisement three girls said they were back in the same spot where they were confronted and next to the same guys, who again taunted them. Still saying nothing, the three victims tried to walk away but were pelted with lemons and small pumpkins that split the seams on their costumes and left lumps and bruises on their bodies.
The taunts and jeers grew more aggressive, the victims recalled, as did the size of the crowd. Now females joined in, and everyone began saying “We hate white people, f-— whites!”
At this point, the girls began to run, but the pack of assailants ran ahead of them and kept them surrounded.
“It was like animals, like a pack of hyenas,” Michelle said.
She was trying to call 911 on her cell phone when the taunts began, but kept getting busy signals. She tried three times to call, she said, but never got through to an operator.
The suspects also began to gradually separate the girls, first by grabbing Laura by her long hair and yanking her backward.
She said she tried to fight off a group of girls who surrounded her and were clawing and hitting her, but then a man came up and slammed her in the head with a skateboard, knocking her unconscious.
“One of the witnesses told the police that he saw my legs go straight up in the air and I hit the ground face first,” she said, accounting for the bumps and bruises on her forehead and around her nose and eyes.
Her friends watched, horrified as the man raised the skateboard over his head and slammed her again as she lay on the ground. Others in the pack also began to hit and kick her motionless body.
Fearing their friend would be killed, the other two girls rushed to her aid.
Saved by a Samaritan
Lauren was the first at Laura’s side, and a group of people immediately jumped on her and began punching her in the face and back of the head simultaneously. Some kicked her in the back of knees, causing her legs to buckle. At one point, when they got her cell phone away from her, Lauren said she knelt down to try and retrieve the phone.
“Once I knelt down, there was too much of a force on top of me to get back up,” she said. “They were pounding on my back, on my head. ... They were kicking at the ball that was me.”
Lauren suffered 12 fractures in her face, including four to her eye socket, three to her nose and three to her cheek.
Doctors don’t yet know if she will regain all of her eyesight. Until the swelling goes down, they won’t know if she’ll require surgery to repair the many broken bones.
Forced to drop her college photography classes this semester because she cannot see well enough to use the camera, Lauren also can’t blow her nose or sleep lying down. The pressure, doctors told her, could cause any of the fractured bones to shift, which could lead to her eye becoming detached from the shattered socket.
Michelle said she saw the group drag Lauren down as she rushed up and knocked the man with the skateboard off Laura. But then he then turned on her, punching her in both sides of her face and in the ribs.
Her face, like Lauren’s and Laura’s, is bruised and swollen. The lining that surrounds her lungs is also bruised.
As the man beat on Michelle, Laura regained consciousness and tried to pull him off her friend. But others in the pack immediately began to hammer at her again, she said.
She, like Lauren, suffered a concussion as well as multiple contusions. The lumps and marks on the back of her head and her back show where she was stomped, kicked and punched as she lay on the ground.
In all, the attack lasted about 10 minutes, and it ended only when a Good Samaritan driving by the melee stopped and physically blocked the battered girls bodies while yanking the assailants off the victims.
Maybe because he was also black, or because he was so tall and strong, the group broke up and scattered to several cars and fled, the victims said.
“If it wasn’t for that guy, honestly, I don’t think these two would be here today,” Michelle said.
Shortly after the attack, police arrested 10 juveniles on a charge of felony hate crimes, including counts for assault with a deadly weapon, battery and robbery.
Some of the 10 youths - nine girls and one boy ranging in age from 12 to 17 - were found wearing the victim’s earrings - which were ripped from their flesh - and had Lauren’s cell phone.
Others still at large
The victims were able to identify all 10 but said there are several others who participated who remain at large. They estimated that at least 25 people took part in the attack, while witnesses who live on the block told police the crowd looked to have between 30 and 40 people.
“I heard these thumping sounds and all these people yelling “F-— whites, f-— whites!” said one resident who witnessed the attack.
She spoke on condition of anonymity, fearing the assailants might return to her neighborhood and attack her and other witnesses.
“I have such mixed feelings,” she added. “I’m so ashamed that I didn’t try to run out there and stop them, but it was terrifying.”
“I’ve never seen anything like that in my life,” she added. “I can’t even describe it. I’m still terrified.”
She said she called 911, along with several of her neighbors, and screamed frantically for help as a dispatcher tried to calm her down. North Division officers found the 10 youths not far from the scene of the crime in a grocery store parking lot.
One girl’s mother said she doesn’t blame witnesses who were too frightened to intervene.
And she and the other mothers said over and over how grateful they are to the man who saved their daughters’ lives.
“I can’t imagine,” Barbara said, her eyes shining with tears. “I can’t imagine anyone doing that to another human being, or even an animal.”
Now the mothers are working with police and imploring the district attorney’s office to prosecute the youths as adults and to seek the harshest sentences possible. They have raised $2,500 for a reward fund so far, and are taking more donations in the hope it will spur someone to turn those responsible in to authorities.
Most of all, the girls and their mothers want the three men - who appeared to be in their early 20s - to be arrested.
A team of detectives have been assigned to the case, and the police response has the victims and their families confident that the men will soon be found.
Anyone with information about the suspects or the incident is urged to call police at the Youth Services Division, at (562) 570-1426, or Violent Crimes Division, at (562) 570-7250.
“Anything anyone can do, please help,” said one of the mothers. “These people ... they don’t belong in society.”

The extreme statistical propensity of young black maless to commit violent crime notwithstanding...sheesh. What a moron.
“...Now, a black kid might shoot another black kid. He’s not going to shoot up the whole school...”
“Underachievers?”
Ouch...that one hurts...
This guy says what Obama can't. This is boilerplate for Black Nationalists and the Reverend Wright crowd.
This is just my opinion and I admit I may be wrong.
There are two camps in the White House. The public face being the traditional cabinet consisting of mainstream democrats. And then there’s the czars. Hilary has been neutered (no pun intended)as Secretary of State. When is the last time we’ve heard stories on Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel, Tim Geitner, Lahood, or the other “mainstream” dems. I thought I heard it reported that his cabinet has only met once since the inauguration. They have no power. O is attempting to shift the power to the czars and he is going to use Eric Holder to do it. I’m waiting for one of these mainstream democrats in his admin to just go for broke and out the whole bunch. I’d like to believe that.
Thanks put in my Hate Crimes file.
“Ghana, Botswana, Tanzania “
All sh*tholes. Try again.
The scumbags just do it in the street.
And if black kids killed themselves like the white kids do after doing their shooting, imagine how empty the prisons would be.
this man is seriously skewed - he likes to hear himself talk,too, just like obamao.
Where is his personal example? Does Van Jones have children? If he had children he’s more than welcome to raise them as he sees fit.
Truthfully, he’s a gasbag
Lord! The pundits on FoxNews Fred Barnes, Mort Kondracke and AB Stodard all predict Jone will be gone by Tuesday. Obama can’t afford the controversy now.
This guy is not just a racist...he is a maggot. He needs to be inducted into the black racist hall of fame.
A mentally lazy sophist who views himself as one of Plato's philospher kings.
White people are poisoning minorities? Yea...that's a pretty serious conviction./s More like the Dems who have been in control of the cities for fifty years are poisoning minorities... if has ever happened at all. This man is sick...sick sick sick,totally out of his mind. Where do you get off placating to this? He is an embarrassment to all thinking people of any color.
Notice how none of the mainstream media outlets (the leftist-biased mainstream media outlets, that is) are reporting on Van’s racist idiocy. Typical double-standard reporting. I think we, the people, will have to force this issue. Just as the leftists would have forced the issue had this been a white Republican administration employee that made such racist (and asinine) comments.
Race-baiting has long been the norm for these outspoken POS leftists. Jesse Jackasson, Al Sharpton, Queasy (sp inten) Infume, Farrakhan, etc. are all of the same racist and radical political bent. And so is, obviously, Barrack Hussein Obama.
It’s about time we start protesting this crap loud and clear. And demanding that the mainstream media report on it, instead of covering up for their hero, zero. We boycotted their sponsors in the past. Now’s an even more perfect time to do so again. Now that money’s so tight and it will hurt them more.
