The real victims are all of the women that he has paid for their services.


Karma old man.

Seriously, do you think he might have been in that area dropping off donations at a food bank. . . . . or. . . . .

Think about it.

I have no interest in parroting the racism in which some posters are engaging. I see no reason to attach racial designations to anyone involved in this incident. However, your slander of the beating victim is ludicrous.

Kids play near virtually every street in the country. From time to time, one of those kids makes an error in judgement and gets into the path of moving traffic. As drivers, we hope to have enough time to react before hitting that child. The police have already indicated that the beaten man doesn't seem to have been in violation of any traffic laws, and in fact, he stopped to render aid to the child.

He is a tree trimmer who was on his way home from work in his company truck. You're connecting him to prostitution activity, and then using that fabrication as a springboard to suggest that he somehow had this coming is the most thoroughly reprehensible thing anyone has said in this thread.

A child did something stupid, he suffered minor injuries as a result. The driver of the truck didn't do anything wrong--he simply happened to have been the one who was there when the child stepped from the curb. The driver was severely beaten and robbed by a mob of criminals, even as that driver tried to help the child who had been hit.

It is what it is, and racial hatred directed at anyone involved has no place in the story.

I would be angry at the perpetrators but not painting anyone similar as a "thug" or "animal", as has been done over the past 8 pages of this thread.

Wait a minute, didn't you just post "be weary (sic) of the ghetto," and didn't you advise people never to stop in a black neighborhood? It kinda sounds you are casting aspersions at black people.

But you did accuse other white people of being racists though, so I guess you get a pass.

Unlike you I never mentioned race, I don't equate Black people with ghettos, those are your words, not mine.

Stop projecting your views onto others.

Would you call it a racial issue? Yes or no? It's a very simple question.

I am not the you saying race does not exist...Furthermore I am ranting about thugs who happen to be black, beating a man who happens to be white for no reason...

Was this man attacking other people? No. So he did not deserve anything that happened to him

But hey Grsz11, when you are being beaten, having your head smashed against the sidewalk again and again and again, lets see how you feel about race and self defense.

Hahahahahaha! Okay, so your little story about when the mob in the hood almost attacked you, that, was what, an Asian neighborhood then? Or let me guess, Jewish, right? Is that what you're trying to tell us?

Oh by way, the story was about a man being attacked in a black neighborhood. After which you advised people never to stop when in such a neighborhood as that mentioned in the story. So it's a pretty easy inference that you were talking about black neighborhoods.
