Okay, here we go!

Here is a story about a group of blacks beating on a white kid. Within the story, there is a link to a video of the event.
Of course, this attack could not possibly be racially motivated.
The double standard makes me sick.

Oh god, give up your American Renaissance spam campaign. Enough people are aware of that site now, thanks. You’re so transparent.

Oh, thank God! Finally, someone who understands the suffering I have endured in my life as a result of being white (and worse, male!) The American Renaissance website is like a sweet balm on my wounded soul!

Hey look, people, I don’t agree with everything on that site, just like I don’t agree with everytrhing on this one, but one has to admit that you get news stories there that would never be disseminated widely in the mainsteam press!

[/QUOTE]
What double standard? There is no context for this video. There were no cries of “whitey,” “cracker,” “honky,” or other anti-white slurs.
The kid is new to the neighborhood. Is this part of the typical hazing that occurs to (too many) middle school/junior high kids when they are new? Is it gang related, not in the sense of black and white gangs, but in the sense of “stranger on turf” and a black kid might have gotten the same treatment or the gang might have white members who were simply not present?
Who taped it? Was the videographer black or white? If white, why was he not assaulted (and how did he know to have the camera right there just before the beating started? Was it a setup? If it was black on white, why was the other white kid allowed to run away without anyone chasing him down?
It is entirely possible that this _was_ a black on white race-based crime. However, making that assumption with the paucity of information provided is, itself, race-based nonsense.

Are you talking about [this event](http://content.hamptonroads.com/story.cfm?story=133345&ran=82706&tref=po), which has been covered daily here on mainstream websites?
I can’t access that site you linked to here at work because the web-filter flags it as a Hate & Intolerance website. And of course I would need to see this version of The Truth, because y’all don’t know what it’s like, being male, middle-class and white.

I, for one, am tired of being kept down by the Black Man.

On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind being held down by a black _woman_ - perhaps one or both of the Williams sisters?

Shame on the black media conspiracy that keeps **gytalf2000** from hearing about every schoolyard fight in the country.
**gytalf** , you sound like an idiot. The black kids aren’t out to get you.

For all we know the white kid could have been shouting racial epithets ten seconds earlier.

Listen, you fool, I went to a predominantly black university and found out the hard way how blacks treat whites when they are in the majority.
Not one of you has expressed one iota of sympathy for the white kid. No, you are all busy being “non-racist”.
