Well at least they charged him with a hate crime, although I still maintain hate crime laws are ridiculous.

At any rate with these vengeance attacks being committed by young blacks in the name of Trayvon, weapon sales will probably shoot up during the trial.
Prosecutors: Trayvon Martin case led to racial beating in Oak Park - Chicago Sun-Times
Quote:
A man charged with a hate crime in Oak Park this week told police he was so upset about the Trayvon Martin case that he beat up a man because he was white, authorities said.

Alton L. Hayes III, of Oak Park, and a 15-year-old Chicagoan — both black — walked up behind the 19-year-old victim and pinned his arms to his side early Tuesday, police said.

Hayes, 18, then picked up a large tree branch, pointed it at the man and said, “Empty your pockets, white boy.”

They rifled through his pockets, threw him to the ground and punched him in the head and back “numerous times,” police said.

They ran off, but officers sent to scene spotted them and arrested them.

Can we count on at least one black person (aside from EdwardA) on the forum to denounce this? Or does this fall under the "I didn't see or hear a thing!" bias that is common in Minority Hypocrite Society?

Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton should publicly apologize to this young man for inciting violence.

Ha, yea...I'd imagine more black males will be packing whenever they leave the house; it goes both ways.

Dude, we denounce it every time. I just think you have your blinders on. The last time you had a thread like this, I came in and denounced it. And you brushed it off and deflected.

I applaud EdwardA and his superhuman ability to only find negative stories about black people on the internet.

And for the record this incident is bad and I don't condone racial beatings.

Why? Were they the ones that pulled the trigger for Zimmerman?

I think all of this has a bad smell, it is the media who is to blame.
There is no way this guy can have a fair and un-biased trial..

I denounce it and that may the first black to do it because I have my doubts as to some of your post
