Edit: Ah, found it. They are spinning it as "NYPD looking for"

If only they could invent shooting iPhones. People are really good at "bearing" those. Maybe if people could shoot via the screen they'd actually do something.

Because that attacker deserved the death penalty on the spot. The way he's choking that guy, I'm surprised he didn't pass out.

He did? Dude didn't stop fighting till little guy passed out and then he gave him a convenience donk on the window on his way out.

If bro is brain damaged, he is going to get escalated from Battery to an Attempted Murder charge for that donk.
 
im always bothered by the "i dont see race" cause

A: yes you do lol

but B; thats to discount something that is a bedrock of many peoples identity and experience.

scientifically race is mostly a construct, and we tend to use in when we should be using "ethnicity" more, but every culture is interesting, has value, and has aspects worthy of celebration and interest. I really wish people instead of saying "i dont see race" would just clarify I dont see race as negative factor

I don't know that anybody does say it anymore, tbh, since it became Colbert's gag when he was still on Comedy Central....

Here's another one. An old lady was beat up outside a building in NY while the security and doorman just stood by and watched. Where's Daredevil when you need him?

Shitty asshole.

He needs to meet up with a guy who is as much bigger than him as he was to that lady and get a perspective beat-down. Or, he needs to meet up with some smaller asian guy who is very strong in the martial arts who kicks his ass with a few broken bones thrown in.

I just figure after the last four years, and all the controversies, even the stupidest would abandon it....I felt the "All Lives Matter" bit kind of ran its course taking the other motto with it. Nobody is buying that shit. To me, it reminds me of Larry Craig and his "wide stance" in terms of parallel credibility. Like he's not a closet gay and GOP doesn't cynically view non-white voters as their ultimate threat.

I don't know where you guys go to hear that statement. Every once in a while I'l be reading about some politician in a Trumpier state trying to promote it...

You know what go a long way? If the actual BLM organizers actually came out and condemned this shit. Nope, nothing be deafening silence. Just wait until until the next blue on black shooting though, gonna be mass rioting and protests in the streets.

While I agree, that would be a good move, I guarantee that Fox News would spin them as total hypocrites and use this and other incidents to show that BLM is a terrorist organization. Fox assholes would conflate what these black assholes are doing into proof that all black people are criminals.

Some statistics...I wish they tracked or revealed the race of the attackers, but they do not.

Something to note: if tracking attacks by race, it would be important to know the racial makeup of the community in which the attack occurred. Similar to the Hasidic Jew attacks, that makes the assertion of anti semitism as the reason for those attacks as possible not truth, and instead, territory disputes.

That's not exactly a renouncement of the attacks on Asian Americans when attacking another group. It seems to be more of a deterring of analyzing the race(s) of the attackers.

As said above, context matters. I.E. local pops racial makeup, IMO.
