Default Justice done in horrible, race-related hate crime

I just read an article about a horrible crime commited just outside Los Angeles. 8 youths beat on 3 women because of the color of their skin.

I am ashamed to say I didn't hear a single word about this crime until just now stumbling on it... I wonder why such a horrible, hate-filled racist crime didn't get more media attention...

A group then attacked the victims, knocking them to the ground. The beating only ceased when a black man driving by stopped, pulled the assailants away and shielded the women with his body, prosecutors said.

I hope this guy was applauded. If you ask me, not enough people help as this man did.

Absolutely. The man is nothing short of a hero.

Leave it to QuiGon and Harry Boy to do their best David Duke imitation and dig up the black on white crime. There's plenty of crime in this country that goes largely unreported. A quick Google search turned up this example of a hate crime that to my knowledge was never widely reported:

http://www.star-gazette.com/apps/pbc...0040/1001/NEWS

Digging up obscure stories to prove racist points is a common tactics of white rights groups. They used it, for instance, to try to block Thurgood Marshall's appointment to the Supreme Court. The story you posted is the sort of crime that happens too much in America. It's not sensational as draggind someone to death or tying someone to fence and leaving them to die, but if it was it would have received more attention, sort of like the OJ Simpson case.

I like how Qui Gon justifies digging that stuff out of the woodwork by making it sound like he's critiquing the media.

QuiGon's alleged motives are not important.
The fact is this is a horrible racial assault. The race of the victim or assailants are not important. If the races were reversed, the crime would be equally horrible.
THE RACIAL ASSIGNMENT DOESN"T MATTER!

Of course it's a horrible crime. There are many horrible crimes, but why of all the horrible crimes to choose from, did he choose this one? Sensationalism?

My guess is that he did it to point out the double standards in reporting race related crimes.

After reading the first sentence we know why it wasn't all over the news, "biased reporting".

There is good and bad in all races, the "Bad Blacks" beat the "White Women" the "Good Black" helped the "White Women"

The Politically Correct Dishonest Liberal Media doesn't want you reading about the "Bad Blacks" because they want to make you think that only the "Whites Are Bad" they try to control your emotions, and I agree the "THE BLACK HERO" should be recognized and given an award but this won't happen because then the f-cking biased racist media would have to "Tell The Story"

Scumsucking Bastards

Do you think one article is proof of that? If I post two articles about white on black hate crime that you never heard of, would that convince him that the media is anti-black?

Browse through this for many hate crime stories that never made the MSM:
