pretty sad this alleged mob of racists is even being discussed. Further proof how easy Drudge and Limbaugh can rule up their base with their prejudicial taunts and play on their fears. Er have no story whatsoever going national. History proves this is easy to do. Those who know history know this.
Some residents, unaware of the media attention, confirmed Sunday there was a crowd in the street Friday, but said that race was not involved. A police report on the incident does not even mention the word race.
Khalid Davis, who lives on Thrush, said the group blocked a few cars but was very orderly. He witnessed no fights and called the racist allegations a "heck of an exaggeration."

Because it seems utterly ridiculous that only one person would have "reported" the 5th large mob of between 10-70 black men terrorizing Peoria Illinois.
Two people did,actually three,the third said it was an orderly group blacking traffic...
Could you post where the news articles state this was the 5th largest mob?

He claims this is the 5th time this month they've rampaged through the neighborhood assaulting people, berating cops, stropping traffic and beating on cars, chasing children from their lawns, trespassing and charging at people on their front porches, threatening death to all white people, etc, etc, etc.
5th time in a month?Assaulting people?

If such things happened even once (let alone the 5 times in a single month he claims), where are the 100s of police reports? When are the local news stories? Where at the 100s of photos of the incidents that would certainly have been posted on Facebook within minutes?
If you care to,you can research the topic of flash mobs and you find it seems it takes an overt criminal act before the police react.At least that seems to be the case in Chicago.

Now we even have a member of the city council saying this man has a history of making up race baiting nonsense like this and reporting it to the police.
Was she present?

How can you possibly believe this man's account?
There are two people stating there was a group acting out....there is the police response....
Do you just feel uncomfortable admitting the possibility a mob of black people might have done this?
Paul Wilkinson, who has lived on Sheridan for 11 years, says the group was blocking four lanes of traffic, fighting and yelling racist comments at neighbors.
"They were yelling 'We're gonna kill all the white people. This is our neighborhood,'" Wilkinson, 45, said.
Hope that helps you understand.

One victim, Krzysztof Wilkowski, told The Chicago Tribune he was hit so hard in the head with a baseball bat that it knocked the motorscooter helmet he was wearing off.

Do you feel uncomfortable admitting that you WANT this to be true because it fits right in with your agenda? There are multiple eyewitnesses who discredit this and Wilkinson has a history of race-baiting. There probably was a mob blocking traffic but do you actually think that only one or two people would have reported a group of black teens screaming "Kill whitey"? please. This would be the #1 hit on youtube by now.
Hope your selective reading didn't impair you from noticing that the second witness said he didn't hear any racist chants and that the first witness has been known to be full of it.
