I feel bad for this guys family. Woods has a point. Now is that stoking the flames? Probably but I do believe he makes a point. Sometimes you have to address the complaints of the other side just for credibility sakes. If all you do address the complaints of one side you lose credibility.

A group of teens (that apparently had a couple white kids in it) beat up 1 white kid, and 2 black folks.

Quote:The mob was comprised of black and white people, said WREG-TV, and a witness said two of the three victims were black.

Memphis has responded well to this, with 11 in jail, and "positive protests", I simply think the AG coming here would only fan the flames on a fire that's almost out.

Is that the same story where the black person is laughing and saying "OOOH THEY GOT EM A WHITE DUDE! HAHA!"?

They only beat the black guys up for helping the white guy.

Pointing out they're beating up a white dude makes this a hate crime? not only do I disagree...The Memphis DA (republican) says there's no way it's a hate crime...and Holder will just tell you the same thing.

F*cking right it does. If a white guy was laughing while another white guy, or guys, were beating up a black guy and he was saying "OH HE GOT HIM A BLACK DUDE!" then you can bet your hairy arm that it'd be considered a hate crime.

It is a national epidemic,

http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/201.../12678289/
Because they are accused of hurling racial epithets at two white men before beating them, five black males were charged Tuesday with ethnic intimidation and other crimes in the May beating of Jonathan Deters, son of Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters.

"We believe the sole motivation (for the alleged attack) was because of the color of their skin," Assistant Ohio Attorney General Daniel "Woody" Breyer said of the incident.

Witnesses told police, Breyer said, the five adults and one juvenile charged in Deters' beating said, "let's get the (epithet) white guy. And minutes later: "There's another one," when they spotted another white man whom police allege was beaten by the same five.

Indicted for felonious assault, ethnic intimidation, aggravated riot and two misdemeanor counts of assault were Yahdea Brown, 19, of Golf Manor; Joshua McCoy, 21, of Hartwell; Onea Lapsley, 22, of Forest Park, and; Matthew Johnson Jr., 23, of Roselawn. The juvenile faces the same charges.

They are accused of the May 24 beating of Jonathan Deters, 23, Deters' girlfriend and another man, of whom little is known because the indictment lists the victims only by their initials – an infrequent but occasional practice.

Jonathan Deters was at a private graduation party on Downtown's West Ninth Street when he walked his sister to her car. As she drove away, she saw the five men jump her brother.

That's when Deters' girlfriend, Allison Crable, come to his aid, landing one or two punches before she was hit by some of the men. Crable is the daughter of former Moeller coach and professional football star Bob Crable,

It wasn't just Alison Crable, though, who came to Deters' aid.

"The Deters beating was heading for something worse," Breyer said. "when an older black lady rather indignantly stepped in and said, 'Stop it. I'm calling the police right now.'

"Jon probably got his life saved by an older Africa-American woman," Joe Deters said. "She said they would have killed him."

Jonathan Deters was hospitalized after the attack with a concussion and minor injuries to his arms, legs and face.

Because no money was taken and the comments witnesses said the accused five made, Breyer believed ethnic intimidation was an appropriate charge.

"I can't find any other motive than the color of skin," Breyer said.

"I don't care if it's white on black or black on white," Joe Deters said, "when the motivation to commit crime is race, it's just disgusting."

The five were identified, Breyer said, by a call to Crime Stoppers. Police then questioned someone named by the tipster and the investigation grew from there.

So you acknowledge that blacks were beating a white, who ran into the store to evade the black mob pounding on him, then finding another white victim to beat up outside, then the black that came to the white's aid, right? I don't have to be a DA to figure out what is right in front of my face. Surprisingly, you don't either.

That makes two whites, and one black. So where is the black guy they beat up? I didn't see him in the evidence either.

In memphis,
1) A mob of blacks targeted and beat up white people because of their ethnicity.
2) No white people targeted whites or blacks
3) only reason a black person got beat up is because they interfered with the mob beating up white people.
4) Hate crimes occurred in this case

You don't live here and have no idea what happened. Everything you know is from a video clip. Memphis police and DA have interviewed 11 under arrest, interviewed countless witnesses, Kroger has their own tapes they're only showing MPD, and the victim has been interviewed.

I'm going to have to go with the full picture from the MPD and Memphis DA.

Again, the Memphis DA will decide if it's a hate crime...and the decision was made by her and Police Director Tony Armstrong.

It does not matter if you live 5 miles or 500 hundred miles away, a hate crime is a hate crime. If the local DA does not have the courage to do the right thing so be it. as long as the racist punks serve jail time that is good.

I don't live in St Louis/Ferguson, and really didn't follow that case too much...I worked a lot during the week it happened, and the week after...I had to put new brakes on my car, so I worked extra shifts.

You don't make any decisions in Memphis, so there is no need to prove anything to you. The decision has been made already.

Which means you have no clue either. All we have to go off of is a video clip, and that video clip shows a black mob beating up two white people. Strange how you buy into the DA and cops this time, but not in Ferguson, and funny how they won't release the evidence proving that two blacks and one white kid were beat up. That pale casper looking guy must have just been a really light colored black dude with Caucasian textured hair and features. Had to be, because I didn't see any blacks getting beat up, so you still have one more black kid to account for, and white people in the mob crowd.
