When this story first broke. I thought it was horrible and still is. The first images was this man on the ground bleeding from the face by a mob of teenagers. Speculators said it was a hate crime. Including the first responders They the new evidence came out soon after. People always want to believe the worst.

Should the teens goto jail? Of course.

Should it be a hate crime? No not after the entire evidence was presented or what has been shown.

The bus driver was white and looking at the whole thing and did NOTHING. He didn't even blow his horn or anything. Maybe he know more than we all do.

"Obviously he is the victim, but my point is simply to say there is such thing as mutual combat."

LOL. I wouldn't call a gang of 30-plus people beating a single man to a pulp "mutual combat." It's a black-on-white hate crime. Weird how many posters are trying to minimize it. Is that what it's like in Cincinnati?

I think he caught his breathe and decided to go back to slay all 25-30 people. It's the only logical conclusion.

The video does not show him fighting 25-30 people, but it does show him coming back to fight more.

Your failure is explained by the fact that you are trying to use logic as opposed to viewing the video which shows what actually happened.

I suspect that was pure adrenaline, and fight or flight response kicking in! It looks like he chose fight.

Absolutely. Some people don't take any crap from anyone, and they'll fight anyone once the adrenaline kicks in (outnumbered or not).

I take those scenarios case by case myself. I may flee if I'm that outnumbered, but best believe I'll be coming back with a few friends. It'd be nice to hear for once low lifes like this getting the favor returned from the person that they accosted.

and protests....well you know.

Nothing about this is information anyone really needs to know since we literally can't learn anything from this.
