WWII veteran Delbert Belton survived being wounded in action during the Battle of Okinawa only to be beaten and left for dead by two teens at the Eagles Lodge in Spokane on Wednesday evening.
Belton, 89, died from the injuries he suffered in the beating Thursday morning at Sacred Heart Medical Center. . .
"Shorty," as he was known by his friends at the Eagles Lodge, served in the U.S. Army in the Pacific during WWII and was shot in the leg during the Battle of Okinawa. He went on to work at Kaiser Aluminum at the company's Trentwood plant for more than 30 years.
He loved playing pool, even though he claimed he was no good at it and had been a member of the Eagles Lodge for the last four months. In addition to playing pool he loved working on cars. . .
Spokane police are looking for two male suspects in the attack. They said the suspects are African Americans between 16 and 19 years old. . .

I have some good black folks that i work with....you’ll wait a long time until they stand up and speak out on this savagery....Like’em but i know where my white ass stands....and you will be disappointed...they talk a good game....hate it but that’s just the way it is....sorry.
Come on, Obama, and Holder, and Jackson, and Sharpton, et als. We’re waiting for you to come out publically and condemn this senseless attack on an 89-year old man. I mean, my father was a WWII veteran (God rest his soul); Del COULD HAVE BEEN MY FATHER!!! Hear that, Obama? If Trayvon could have been your son, Del could have been my father. See how that works, you POS?

I guess what this is all going to come down to, is that someone who sees a couple of blacks looking at him askance, and advancing towards him, is just going to decide not to take any chances and “take care of business.” This can rightfully be blamed on you, Obama, because you and that lickspittle hack at DOJ have pretty much encouraged this.
sorry...I was referring to the sucker punch of the Orlando man that was posted.
This is all REALLY pissing me off.
Amen, brother.
Oh, yes. . . the popular so called “knockout game”
To all who sent this story of the WW2 hero was beaten to death to Drudge. Thank you!
Top billing!
Sickening. RIP.
How much longer will people just bitch about these attacks on the internet before real and severe action is taken?
Obama, unwittingly, may have saved the country. Before Obama White Americans seemed to be still greatly buying into the kumbaya tale of diversity where black teens hold hand with white World War II veterans and everything is rosy. Since Obama has taken office, though, many of the black community’s most nefarious elements have taken the Obama Presidency as a green light to act as how they truly would if the reins of white society were taken off them. As a result of the beatings and political pandering that has ensued, many white people have awoken to see race matters in a more true light and now there is a pushback to the race card, black crime, and the endless push for diversity at the expense of white Americans.
Fixed it again.
Maybe what is needed here is a Million Bernie Goetz March.
“I read most of the article...was it definitely blacks? It doesnt appear to say (big surprise)”
If it doesn’t say, it is a fairly sure bet that this is the case. This is now de rigueur.
I really feel sorry for any Negro that has an IQ of 90 (below average, but just high enough to think) that realizes they are part of a failed culture. That is to say, it possible for Negroes to be civilized and contributors to our society, but I am not holding my breath.
I am so sad. My grandparents lived right up the road from Sacred Heart. I lived in Spokane when I was younger. And what the AA community better think about it right across the border in Cordeleine Idaho is some mean ass Nazi loving bastards that will be hell bent on revenge. The Black community is going to start something they will not be able to stop. In My opinion.
Carry 5-7 extra mags... I always do.
Yes, particularly any group of young blacks together one sees in public fit the profile and should be suspect as here in Chicago metro area of Indiana, majority of armed robberies or random shootings with no motive are by teenagers to under 25 black males. But honestly, it can be roves of young feral half breeds, whites other races in some groups including females. All of the above it goes to condition 1, with one or two handguns on person, extra mags, 2 blades at all times — including more mags, blades, trauma kit in car. If society continues breakdown, folding carbine in folding chair bag another option, or AK sidefolder in tennis bag.
