Obama is doing a bang up job bringing the country together.

Man, 78, recounts assault by 6 youths in E. Toledo - Toledo Blade

Quote:
At one point, the victim recalled being lifted from the ground so one of the boys could "drop-kick" him in the chest.

One boy, he said, put his foot on the back of the victim's neck, with another shouting, "Kill him."

While Mr. Watts was down the boys kicked him, over and over, shouting, "[Get] that white [man]. This is for Trayvon ... Trayvon lives, white [man]. Kill that white [man]," according to a police report.

I know! I mean pigs don't even fly yet. What the hell is Obama doing with his time anyway?



That being said, it sounds like the victim was lucky not to have been shot given that one of his alleged attackers apparently shot someone back in March.

Nice legacy which Obama is leaving with black American youth isn't it? So proud of the "post-racial" President and his czar of Race Relations Rev. Al Sharpton (a.k.a. Mr. Escalate).

So after all the hoopla over the Martin case, we are expected to sit quietly while an elderly man gets beat? Ignore it and hope it goes away? I have a news flash for you... It won't disappear and it will get worse as time goes on. This is being orchastrated. Since the Martin case took place, probably 100 kids have been killed at the hands of another kid, yet you hear nothing about it. There have been I am sure countless assaults on the elderly of every race, yet there is silence. Do you ever stop and ask yourself why? Why this case? The masses of all races do not want a race war or any war inside this country, but it is being primed and fueled by those who are supposed to show leadership. You tell me...

If a cop executed a US citizen in side a police station, then tried to cover it up, would you say that murder deserved no more attention than any other murder that happened that day?

It's exactly on point, and you'd see it how if you humored me with an answer.
