Police: 2 hurt in West Point confrontation (Ferguson retaliation; white victim)
SFgate ^

Ralph Weems IV, who was injured early Saturday, was in fair condition Sunday at North Mississippi Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Genie Causey said without elaborating.

A relative, Bradley Barnes of Madison, told The Associated Press by telephone on Sunday that his brother-in-law was in a medically induced coma following brain surgery. "They're going to try and wake him up tomorrow and see what damage was done," Barnes said, describing Weems as a 32-year-old former Marine who had served in Iraq.

David Knighten of West Point told AP earlier by phone that he and Weems had gone to a Waffle House early Saturday. He said a man waved him over outside the restaurant and told him politely that people were upset by the killing of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and it wasn't a safe place for whites. When he went in, he said, Weems was inside and was arguing with other men.

I do have every right.....

Mrs WBill has a saying..."Just because you can, does not mean you should".

Doesn't excuse what happened, but the phrase sure sounds applicable here.

"Situational Awareness". It's a good thing.

If it was in reference to common sense practices, I certainly hope so. If not, he may not be with us for long.

It is a shame, but there is no other way. I’m tired of pretending things aren’t much worse than before.

” “Not gonna get killed in no white man’s war!” “

I’m glad The 442nd Regiment didn’t feel that way.
