True.
This is appalling...
Sh!t happens. This is FR, after all. :)
Looks like we’re going to have to wait for Breitbart and O’Keefe to break it.
Thank you very much for that!
The investigation is underway. The NOPD should make an announcement.
Revolution is exactly what the left desires. They tried to instigate it in the 60’s and 70’s, using civil rights and the Vietnam War. They failed. King's non-violent approach, the churches, and morality of USA society were too strong.
Now they are at it again. They hope for violence to irrupt, because that will help to establish a totalitarian state faster than doing it incrementally, to name just one reason.

You mean this bunch is on top of it?

Editorial: Misconduct and morale
Tuesday, April 13, 2010
A barroom fracas between off-duty New Orleans police officers and transit workers and the apparent cover-up that followed is a distressing example of police misconduct that clearly deserves federal scrutiny.
The FBI confirmed last week that the Mardi Gras 2008 brawl is one of eight civil-rights probes it is conducting into police actions, and that needs to be done.

Media response: "no hate crimes here. Move along."
Thanks crunk...I knew about the spokesman’s statement..just wondered if Gov Jindal himself had said anything yet.
UGH - yep, one in the same. Gee, abb thanks so much for *that* Perhaps this investigation will be different, since the one you posted about involved off-duty police officers.
Aim small, miss small....bud.
If The Hayride is on top of it, it WILL get reported. I know the guy who runs that blog. He won’t quit digging.
The difference is, if the attackers were black, that would make it a hate crime, because the victims were a white couple.
If the attackers were white, it wouldn’t be a racially motivated attack. Either way, though, it’s a politically motivated attack. More Palin Derangement Syndrome.
There are far more racial crimes in America that involve blacks attacking whites than whites attacking blacks.
I’m under no delusions regarding our media, though.....when blacks are the victims, it’s the lead story on the evening news night after night. When the victims are white, the media ignores the story.
Can you imagine the media coverage of this incident if a black couple were wearing Obama buttons and they just left a rally for the “One,” and were then attacked by a white mob yelling...”Get them! They’re wearing Obama buttons!”
It would be wall-to-wall media coverage, 24/7.
So far, I haven’t heard anything on Rush.
Oh, that’s GOOD to know!!
Doesn't it looks like a dead ringer for Ann Coulter blasting the melon head muggers? youtube.com
Thanks for the ping, but what the heck are you doing at home? I just shot you an email.
