Never mind, the attackers weren't white so it must have just been coincidental.

Maybe they were planning to put it up on youtube.

A seperate article said that another kid, (white), riding a skateboard nearby filmed the beating.

As far as Norfolk and the whole Hampton Roads area. You could bomb that area and I would be happy as can be.

With a population of 1.8 million, and over 300,000 of those being military and family I think bombing the entire area is a little extreme. There are some bad parts of town but the area is comparable to Kansas City. We have 1.9 million in our metro and our crime is very comparable, (I argue this with my wife who I moved to KC from VA Beach).

That's like seeing a kid get beat up on Quindaro and saying that we should bomb all of KC.

You know how this works...they won't make an appearance until the attackers are punished by the courts. That's when they'll show up.

I completely agree with that.....but, if the roles were reversed, would that still be a possibility to some people in this country? Or, would it be a bunch of KKK members jumped a defenseless black kid?

Holy hell @ some of the stuff in this thread.

**jAZ** · 09-27-2007, 10:14 AM

Should these kids be charged with attempted murder and face up to 100 years in prison without parole?

**noa** · 09-27-2007, 10:15 AM

Black people beat up people like this

White people beat up people like this

This is quite pedestrian by comparison of some racial threads. Seriously.

Yeah, but there are still a few people who have yet to make an appearance in this thread.

I got into an argument with a Korean kid one time. He threatened to fight me and I said, "What, just because you are Chinese I am supposed to think you know karate and be afraid of you?" He then kicked and hit me several times Mr. Miagi style.

The kid is lucky to have escaped permanent injury or death, against that many people theres no way to defend yourself. An incredibly ugly clip.

Were this thing reversed, it would undoubtedly be classified as a racially motivated beating & i would want them all hammered under the law.

IMO, anyone who thinks otherwise is being dishonest with themselves & everyone else.

My hunch is that this was a by-product of the Jena 6 case.
