Federal authorities said Thursday they have arrested and charged a Texas man in connection with the “knockout game,” accusing him of a hate crime for targeting a black man for a vicious street attack.

Most knockout victims that have appeared in news reports have been white, but the Justice Department said in this instance the victim was a 79-year-old black man, and stepped in with federal charges.

How does this administration get away with being to openly and blatantly racist?

[FreedomPoster]

No double standard there. Nope, not at all.

The Obama administration is down for the struggle./sarcasm. :-)

Good men do nothing...

[fwdude]

It’s all a matter of “whose peoples” get clocked.

If it was a white man hitting a black man; then it wasn’t a case of the knockout game.

Bzzzzt!

But nice try to the Lame Stream Media for trying to confuse the issue.

Get used to it. Soon, they will allow black animals to hunt us down like dogs with the encouragement of the liberals.

First, they will have to take our guns away but hey! They’re working on that as I speak.

An evil crime like this is evil, no matter who perpetrated it. Who cares what race it is? Attacking a 79 year old man is just plain evil.

[Pollster1]

These charges make sense. It’s exactly the same charge that is filed against black thugs who target white victims in the same game. Isn’t it?

[LALALAW]

Revolution is coming. Obama and the Thugocracy has overreached.

[Foundahardheadedwoman]

I take it that the knock out artist was of the white persuasion? Regardless he should spend a good length of time in the poky.

“The plan is to see if I were to hit a black person, would this be nationally televised?” Mr. Barrett says in the video, according to the authorities.

Apparently so. Blacks play the knockout game and its no big deal. Let a white guy do it,  and it is National News AND a Hate Crime.

Not racist:

Simply asking Professor Henry Louis Gates if he lives at a house: Racist

When you look at the incidents in isolation they are just crimes.
Like the way the left wanted us to look at Muslim terrorist attacks on Americans...

But, when you tell the truth about it, the “knockout game” is a semi-organized, Executive Branch-encouraged race war.

[Tupelo]

Well, we have speculated as to what they would do if a white guy popped an old black guy.
Speculate not more. The Just-us system has spoken,

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

They are Marxists which the Marxist propaganda machine posing as our fair and impartial media does everything to protect.

[latina4dubya]

is it fair? no way... but i only feel contempt for this creep attacking anybody, let alone a 79-year old... how disgusting... i do feel for the white victims whose black assailants are not being charged with hate crimes... that is not justice...

p.s. the whole idea of hate-crimes is stupid in my opinion...

[dennisw]

Smarten up!!!!.... The Feds have never pressed charges on a black playing knockout game against whites. The Ubungu regime could care less and most local authorities remain in denial about black assaults on whites which vastly outnumber white on black assaults rape murder etc

[rktman]

Wait. What? I thought it was white hispanics that had a license to go out and ambush skittle totin’ young black dudes who weren’t casing apartments to rob and acting like they had a chip on their shoulders. Weird huh?
