http://detroit.cbslocal.com/2014/04/04/white-man-beaten-by-mob-in-detroit-after-hitting-boy-with-truck-was-it-a-hate-crime/

As a 54-year-old Roseville man clings to life in the hospital following a brutal mob beating .....

Our preliminary investigation shows the child stepped in front of his vehicle, Woody said. He did exactly the right thing. He stopped his vehicle, he got out and he tried to render aid to a small child. He did exactly what he was supposed to do It was a small child and it was an accident; is what it was.

[BustedKnuckles]

always been a fear of mine,hitting a child (anyone for that matter) . If its in wrong hood this is what will most likely happen. Imagine trying to explain you didnt mean to hit someones kid and the entire hood gathers to see the commotion? Ummm...ya...get ready for a old fashioned butt kickin

 

[Wooderson]

Poor guy. What a bunch of idiots to gang up on a guy like that.

Shouldn't everyone have insurance available now? Am I missing something?

The thugs involved did not even know the kid that was hit. It was the kids fault, he jumped right in front of the car. The kid is home with a broken leg, the guy has brain injuries. They just jumped in beat and robbed a guy trying to do the right thing. The video showed 12 black people involved beating a 54 year old white man. The white man was a tree trimmer and did have a hoodie on. Coincidence?

They were talking "hate crime" on the local news. 2 arrests have been made so far.

It was Detroit. So it was bound to be Serbians and South Koreans.

Man...lucky for him, he can probably sue them for every dollar they have and at least be rich...or at least as rich as a couple dollars will get you.

Probably talked out of it by some concerned politician who didn't want his healthcare taken over by Obummer. Now he can go broke but hey he has FREEDOM!

Why would I ask in that thread?

My question is simply at this point, shouldn't everyone have coverage? And if not, can't he just sign up now and get coverage? Why are they taking donations?

Becuase you know we could all tell the race of the people without being told. Wink wink nod nod.

OK that's cool.

Not all blacks, but certainly these blacks.Detroit is 80% black so it seemed like a pretty safe guess. If an iphone wielding mob beat some guy into a coma in Portland white hipsters would have been a safe bet.

now imagine the driver was black

I imagine that he still gets his ### kicked and his property stolen

I'm not sure why Jackstraw's post bothers everyone.

The "I guessed what race these people were before reading" type stuff is hateful and pointless, and it does imply some pretty horrible things.

“There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps... then turn around and see somebody white and feel relieved.”

― Jesse Jackson

100-150 years ago, it was gangs of whites doing horrible things to black people. The way that problem was eventually fixed is the light of shame was shone upon those people and eventually we overcame it for the most part. It is not a problem inherent to one race or another. I guess the solution proposed by most is to ignore what is going on because we don't want to appear racists, and just let these inner city youth continue to rot generation after generation. Detroit isn't the only ####hole where this could easily happen. This could happen in Gary, Chicago, Cleveland, LA, Washington DC, or a dozens of other places probably in any big city near you. There is no easy solution to the problems going on in the inner cities, but the solution to the problem is not to pretend it does not exist.

You want to discuss solutions to inner city poverty and/or gang violence, fine, but the following phrase isn't a helpful part of that discussion:

"If no one identified the race of any of the people involved in this story, would you have guessed correctly?"

It is a question to reflect upon you own inner biases and experiences on knowing nothing else about the story. Could the races have been reversed. Certainly.

LOL!...No it's not. It's because a majority of whites have way too much to lose to engage in ####ty violence against other people.

Sure there are....and where they live en masse is are often places that an outsider or stranger wouldn't want to be either.

It's the story of America, Kid. The Irish were degenerates and subhuman. They evolved. The Italians were degenerates and subhuman. They evolved. The poorest ethnicity amongst us is usually the biggest demographic in criminal category.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I'm not going to get into this conversation here as I've said my peace among Detroiters already.

If you want to read some really over-the-top racist stuff though, I suggest you check the comments out here.

I actually went through all of them and even read one of the books one of the Aryan Nation guys recommended. I think that I'm way too hard on some people around here sometimes, even the most idiotic posters on this board would have posted some of the more enlightening comments below that story. The actual crime itself was utterly disgusting, the comments are almost as bad.

We haven't come nearly as far as we think.

 

[sublimeone]

I think John actually has a decent point. Until the black community starts shaming violence and racism it will never change. There's nothing racist about pointing out the disproportionate amount of crime committed by black men.

What is it that you don't understand?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I grew up on that street, and my mom still lives there and she still thinks it safe. <_<

That area has gone to hell. Is that 48205? Was surprised that area has the highest crime rate in the city, but I guess it also still is mostly populated. I grew up on exactly the opposite side of the city, I only know that part of the city from when I worked there a few times. I did go sledding at Balduck Park when I was a kid a few times, I always remember that area being very clean and orderly.

I bet they're white. We have a problem with ####### white cops. Does this mean there isn't also a massive crime problem in the black community?
