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.

Actually, all polar bears are black. They just look white because of their fur, which, oddly enough, isn't white but transparent -- some trick of light.
(Don't know how this applies to the topic at hand, but thought it interesting.)
Part of it is that the media is so in the tank for Obama. The media scarecly report stories of knockout games, but when they do, never report that it’s almost always black perpetrators.
I am not setting race aside until the Feds prosecute both the same.... black assaults on white and white assaults on black. You can notify me when this happens.
THE MSM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have hate crime charges been filed in any of the black-on-white cases?
You seem to be double posting today...
More racial profiling from the most racist and bigoted administration in U.S. history. It’s only a “hate crime” if the perp is a honky.
In other words, it’s all right for a black to attack a White.
Hate crime laws were created to put White people in jail for anything they say or do, or don’t say or don’t do, and to set free non-Whites who physically attack Whites.
I’m being proven right every day.
DOUBLE STANDARD ON STEROIDS!
Thanks! You made me look it up.

Does this have any bearing on Nancy Pelosi’s looks?
That guy just did libs a huge favor. Now whenever a story appears of blacks going after whites, libs can brush it aside and say whites do it too.
“The “game” has spawned a fierce debate since many of the reported victims have been white and their assailants have been black, but hate crimes charges have been all but non-existent.”
But the Feds/Holder are jumping into this one.
Eric Holder’s Injustice Department inaction in action.
Same here. The act should be covered by some other law. If it’s only for “feelings”, screw that crap. Too many double-standards go with it, not equal for all.
Hang the scumbag. I was wondering when we were finally going to get a feral white playing this game. Charge all the “knockout” scumbags with hate crimes, and execute them.
The federal government will move decisively to prevent white imitators from horning in on the black Knockout Franchise.
I think this guy has a civil rights complaint of his own.
Go for the throat fella.
Look, I don’t approve of what he did. He should have the book thrown at him. He should be prosecuted to the full extent he can, but hate crimes level charges? No.
I say this because none of the Blacks have been charged under those codes.
Holder has exposed the Justice department to a civil rights complaint, and I think this guy should bring it and win.
I do not condone any unprovoked attacks. On this 79 year old Black man, it angers me a lot. Hopefully some of this guy’s cell mates will introduce him to some justice of their own. They can do it with my blessing.
They are soooooo relieved they finally found one....
It’s a hate crime when a white guy does it. lol
Don’t care if this is an example of blatant racism - he’s a white and should have known better, and he brutalized an elder and should punished brutally.
I’d like to see an end to “thought crimes” but while they exist they should be used to make such scum suffer.
