Again, I was told by the liberals here that I was a liar. Then RAd the thread. In 12 hours, the story started coming out, and turns out, I wasn't a liar. Evven though some returned to say I was still a liar about Ferguson... Well.. here you go.
The Police Chief is an African American.
The comment section says it all...

A relative, Bradley Barnes of Madison, told The Associated Press by telephone on Sunday that his brother-in-law was in a medically induced coma following brain surgery. "They're going to try and wake him up tomorrow and see what damage was done," Barnes said, describing Weems as a 32-year-old former Marine who had served in Iraq.
quote:
David Knighten of West Point told AP earlier by phone that he and Weems had gone to a Waffle House early Saturday. He said a man waved him over outside the restaurant and told him politely that people were upset by the killing of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and it wasn't a safe place for whites. When he went in, he said, Weems was inside and was arguing with other men.
quote:
They left after an argument that brought police, Knighten said. He said he showed those officers his .45-caliber handgun and his concealed carry permit.
quote:
However, he said, they apparently had been followed by more than 20 people.
quote:
Knighten, who said he had served with the Air Force in Afghanistan, said he came out of the restroom to find Weems surrounded. "I was trying to defuse the situation," he said.
quote:
Knighten said some people blocked him from leaving with Weems. When he got out, he said, Weems was down and people were kicking him. Knighten said others attacked him, adding "I do remember racial slurs being yelled from the crowd."
Knighten says he has broken bones in his face, a cut over his left eye and a blood clot in his right eye.
quote:
"This does not appear to be a hate crime," he said in the press release. "We are investigating this as an aggravated assault. It's very early in this investigation but thus far the evidence and statements suggest that a verbal altercation turned physical and somebody got hurt."
The Police Chief is an African American.

Same filth in Houston too on the comments. Then again, I've always thought they were paid trolls to incite hate.

On the surface this looks really bad, but I am not going to jump to any conclusions at this point. If one of them was warned not go in because it was not safe for white people maybe they should have gone somewhere else. Maybe the concealed weapon gave them false security.

Oh that's fricking hilarious.
If it had been a gang of white guys beating a black guy into a coma, you'd be singing a different tune.
"Those racists, tea partiers, Republicans"

Why? SO it's his fault they followed them and his fault he is in a coma?
I guess that is the same for raped women. She should not have been dressed up... not been in a bar. WTF?

Both very well trained military. Maybe he knew what it would look like if he did use it! PC is African American.

I agree that it does sound fishy, but you guys are all up on being victimized white people right now that you don't want to wait and let facts come out about the story.

I hope never. But the Mayor is in a bad situation. He's White. Not sure that there is anything that can be done to make this into a hate crime.
If the mayor pushes it, and the police chief refuses.. then what? Have him removed? If that happens, he has an issue.
The only 2 ways I see:
1- The PC decides on his on to call it that.
2- the white people decide it's not worth having a racial fight.

Well hell, then they ought to just go ahead a spell it out in the HC Law; hate crimes can only be committed by them who are NOT in the minority.
Nothing like double-standards in the Law, for the populous to abandon the rule of Law.

Why? SO it's his fault they followed them and his fault he is in a coma?
I am only saying I don't have enough information at this time to make a decision if this was a hate crime........based I what I have read to this point it looks like a hate crime but not all the information is out yet.
The reason Ferguson became a riot was because an eye witness lied about what happened.

I actually don't remember your comment. After posting, and seeing scruffy's posts.. it was late and I went to sleep.
However, you are correct that the sources I cited were only parts of the story. I also stated more would come out.
