HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss. - A man was attacked after walking into a Mississippi club and using racial slurs, police said.
According to police, the attack happened at C.J. Lounge in Marshall County. Police said the man walked into the venue and started using the "N-word" when referring to patrons.
Officers told FOX13 that the man went to the hospital Wednesday, believing he may have a broken jaw. The incident happened late Saturday night. Police are trying to determine if the attack is a hate crime.
Holly Springs Police provided cell phone footage to FOX13, showing a Tippah County man who had been stripped naked. Police said the people who attacked him are seen pouring beer on him in the video. Seconds before that happened, police said the man was kicked and stomped on nearly every part of his body.
"The guy walked in, and he was very aggressive," said Miles Stone. Stone said he was at the club on Memphis Street late Saturday night when the incident happened. "Other guys in the area were listening, trying to remain calm. They asked him to leave quietly."
Police said the Tippah County man continued to call people racial slurs. In another video provided by Holly Springs Police, the man can be seen outside of the bar speaking erratically and throwing what investigators believe to be gang signs.
"When they were scuffling outside, he was still using the N-word: 'F you N's, f you N's.'" Stone said.
Officers said the attackers used poles and sticks to beat the man.
Stone said he doesn't believe the club to be a problem spot. But Holly Springs Police disagree. The police chief estimated that officers had been to about 30 calls at the club in the three months it's been open. Police said they've responded to fights, guns found inside of the venue, and a man being shot in the foot. The police chief said he's pushing the district attorney to declare it as a nuisance.
"I'm not standing for anything like that. However, we have to live with our choices, and he made the choice to go in there aggressively, and he has to live with the choice he's made," Stone said.
Holly Springs Police said they have a person of interest they would like to speak with regarding the incident, but they believe several people are responsible. If you have information, they would like to speak with you.
FOX13 reached out to the bar's owner. We had not heard back by the time this story was published. The business was closed when FOX13 visited Wednesday. Police told FOX13 that the business closed due to operating without a beer or business license.

Used to go to Blue Mountain and Ripley on First Mondays.........
If a black man had yelled about “Crackas”, would you have condoned his being taken outside and whipped?
So a man walks into a black bar and starts using the “N word”...
IN BUSINESS 3 MONTHS???
OVER 30 CALLS TO COPS?
SOUNDS LIKE A BIG NUISANCE PROBLEM TO ME
“… the man can be seen outside of the bar speaking erratically and throwing what investigators believe to be gang signs.”
Need more info about this. Could be a Bruce Willis sandwich board thing.
I’m reminded of a joke. A racist joke that offends black and white snowflakes.
I won’t tell it here, but I’ll give the punchline...
“Ahmon kick yo ass.”
Darwin Award
Nor do I and the few times I do use it, it is in reference to ATTITUDE and BEHAVIOR of a black person, not just race. A black comedian (I forget who) seems to feel the same way, saying there are two kinds of black people.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
couple observations that I didn’t pick up from the article:
<> using the “N” word outside kinda indicates to me that the victim of the beating might have been an “N” himself as is seems to be ok for them to call each other “N’s”
<> my bet is the “poles” and “sticks” sound a lot like the could have been trying to describe pool cues that seem to be easily picked up and whirleybirded around in bar fights.
Did he squeal like a pig?
That’s what I was thinking.🤔
This mans civil right to free speech appears to have been violated under to USC 18 sections 241 and 242.
OK, let’s reverse races and see how this reads:
A black man was stripped naked and beaten with sticks and poles by an angry mob of white supremists because he exercised his 1st Amendment rights, calling the whites “crackers”.
I’d say the guy read the room and got it right.
And so ends hip hop karaoke night…
White man walks into a mostly black bar where patrons call each other the N word all night long and he starts to use it too. I guess he found out white men cannot change to black men like men can change to women.
My wife’s hairdresser lives there. She’ll get the scoop next time she goes in.
Did he call the poles "Polacks"?
