Poor guy is in a medically-induced coma.

"Another woman, one who police are seeking help in identifying, swung a hammer, hitting the victim repeatedly. Other, younger attackers, stomped and kicked the man's head as he lay prone on the ground.

Finally, Gillard walked up to the man and beat him with the piece of the rocking chair, hitting him so hard in his head and face that the wood splintered in her hands, Brooks said.
Then, as quickly as they arrived, the group got back in the van and prepared to leave.

But before they did, Gillard hesitated. She pulled her son, the one at the center of the incident, toward the man, lying broken and bleeding on the pavement.

She wanted to him to see that they had stood up for him, Brooks said."
Cops: Son's story leads mom, friends to savagely beat homeless man

I guess they showed him, didn't they?

I think the whole world is going to hell in a hand basket...that being said, was it somehow less convenient to call the cops and report an alleged problem with this 'homeless neighborhood fixture", as opposed to endangering your family and freedom to extract your own justice - over a lie?!?

That's what Police are for afterall. Being homeless, he might very well end up doing time for something he didnt really do, instead.

Poor guy - I bet he didnt think his life could get much worse.

I hope for that families sake, and the mental welfare of the child in question, the beaten man pulls through.

Where is the love ya'll? I dont know...*is dismayed*

I hope the people from the vigilante threads come and read this....this is exactly the reason we shouldn't take the law into our own hands.

Sub-humans on the attack again. What else is new?
May they be caught, tried, and sentenced to a minimum of15 years in prison.

Yay, now our tax money goes to locking this ape (sorry, that was an insult to apes) in a cage rather than building new roads, infrastructure, and public education.

It's so savage what they did. At least some are in jail, and there has been no cry of racial-profiling in their arrests.

What a lesson for mother's to teach young impressionable children. Is there any wonder they are all so screwed up? I hope they get the maximum sentence. The 10 year old boy will feel guilty for a long time for lying and because his mother couldn't just call the police or speak to the man instead of attacking him.

It isnt about race, and it isnt about animals, and it isnt about racism, and it isnt about police - its about people. They are all people and could be any color. The fact they are all people is the disgusting part.

I've never heard of vigilante revenge-seeking animals.
