The really brutal attack occurs about 3/4 through the video...
It's pretty clear from the video that he would have been killed if the police hadn't arrived quickly.
Here's the guy after the beating...

Damn!
Seeing a post from Wardaddy, pinged to Travis Mcgee, Squantos and river rat -—— forced me to look at my calendar!
For an instant, I thought I had been thrown back into last year again!
I learned that Squantos simply stopped posting, during Matt’s exile — but he was still lurking and answering his freepmail..
How have you been?
A couple of weeks ago we had an incident where a felon wrecked his car and was being chased through some fields by local LEO a few minutes before we arrived on the scene. As we left the area and commented about what was going an, both my wife and I said at the same time that we were in a 3500 lb deadly weapon, commonly called a Chevy Suburban.
First of all, I did not have much choice in being white. Both mom and dad are of Euro decent. However, my great grand father was an African American, born in South Africa, he was Lily white.
I have always liked Texas with the great weather, good economy and wonderful people. I also like how here in Austin I can go see music any night of the week and all the college girls are really cute. However, for some reason I keep getting older and all the cute college girls stay the same age.
Of all government holidays it is Juneteenth that I can respect the most. For it is the day when slaves in Texas were told they had been emancipated from bondage. Interestingly, the evil white slave holders in Texas somehow forgot to tell their slaves about the the Emancipation Proclamation and the South's loss of the Civil War. And yes, the food is good, the people are great, i like the music, my kids have a good time and learn about American History.
Exactly, and as a white man you are a pretty fair representation of those “evil white slave holders”. Your attendance of a Juneteenth celebration is sort of like a Brit elbowing his way into a 4th of July celebration complete with Union Jack and red British soldier uniform.
Don’t you feel a bit out of place? Also, given the violence of Junteenth celebrations this year, I can’t imagine why you would want to expose your children to that.
It just seems very odd to me, but perhaps it’s just me.
Well, I suppose others can point to this case as a precedent for not stopping.
...and that they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere.?
When did they change this?
Well, if memory serves, it all started under FDR, with AFDC. Then Landslide Lyndon ramped it up significantly with the Great Society.
That’s what I thought.

No, I do not feel out of place at a Juneteenth celebration because everyone there is a Proud American and understands what a wonderful nation we are, despite our past mistakes.
R-e-s-p-e-c-k, that’s the order of the day.
Most of the North didn't have any slaves by the time of the War.
Obviously not enough slavers were tossed in the ditch because there are still people running around hollering "look at him, look at him, look at him, he didn't free all the slaves all at once".
Well, maybe next time. Be sure and give me a call then.
Agree........a scenario I pray I never encounter . But I know how to evade from such and will with extreme prejudice if I am unlucky enough to ever fall prey to such trash.
Someday murdering punks like that will get their asses handed to em in a right proper manner.
....... they will get away with such street theater until street justice puts a damper on it.
There’s always next year. Let me know if you want on the Juneteenth ping list. :)
