North Carolina is a shall issue state, isn’t it?

Wake up people. The cops can’t be there to protect you.

[Pharmboy]

Hmm...could have also been a hate crime if the driver was white (no wait...that only goes the OTHER way)...

After reading the story and many of the comments on the news site, it sounds to me like that particular trailer park is legally “a place of nuisance” and should be shut down by the authorities.

...
and now, my first (no doubt also ‘racist’) thoughts RE: the race of the assault victim, also appear to have been concerned.

It’s starting to get too easy to predict these things. For the most part, it goes like this:

If the assault(s) involve(s) black attacker(s) and white victim(s) the members of the ‘news’ media go out of their way to NOT mention anyone’s race, and somewhere in the story is a the line: “no charges have been brought at this time”.

If the brutal assault(s) involve(s) white attacker(s) and black victim(s) then the ‘story’ will most likely close with something along the lines of the following: “Law enforcement officials are considering whether to also file ‘hate crime’ charges against the perpetrators of this senseless and vicious assault.”

It worries me that factions of our country are becoming more and more like wild animals, but due to political correctness,

They are becoming more like animals BECAUSE of political correctness. Its their carte blanc to do anything they feel like little fear of consequence.

This kind of thing will not stop until people become bold enough to pull their heads out of the rear ends.

[WayneS]

I agree.

I also wish to call “Bovine Ordure” on Bruce’s statement.

There could STILL be a hate crime here.

After all, the guy the driver hit WAS black...

which would have invariably gotten the driver killed, the story would have been changed to make the driver the assailant and the rioting mob to be innocent bystanders, and the family of the driver would soon be looking at a civil suit.

This was a trailer park in north caroline, safe bet it was either Latino are black are a combination of the two.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Just wait until the government checks stop coming.

You ain't seen nothing yet.

Yep. Driver should have known to watch out. Its like rutting season around here. Always got to be looking for deer bolting across the road.

[Holen1]

So what. Bunch of animals try to pull me out of the truck, I’m shooting and stomping on the gas. Call the effin’ lawyers.

“I don’t think these were rednecks.”

I watched it through also. It looks like the `Saturday night’s all right for fightin’ crowd were African-Americans, or in French: `les chuckers-of-spears’.
Incidents like this are why I have a Ruger pistol in my cars armrest: it will help me find my way to my trunk where my 7.62 carbine sleeps. That’s real diversity.

[Fresh Wind]

Stuff like this doesn’t happen in my neighborhood. I wonder what’s different?

[montag813]

Knew it was yet another black-on-white attack the moment I saw the headline. Remarkable to see the caution and hesitation in the comments. You really didn’t know? They ought to bulldoze that entire slum tonight.

[trisham]

Racial incidents seem to be increasing. So much for electing the first “black” president.

[Stentor]

Some day, the worm will turn.

I wonder just what will happen if God willing the First Thug is defeated in 2012? (And unlike many on FR, I am by no means convinced his defeat is a foregone conclusion, or that the Republicans could run a ham sandwich and it would beat BHO, or that BHO=JEC II, ergo the Republican candidate automatically = RWR II, etc etc etc.)

[kaylar]

LOTS of folks have noticed that-it’s not just on FR. Even on “straight” or MSM sites (NOT conservative sites or blogs), I see posts all the time now that read, “Well, they didn’t list the perp’s race in the description, so that means it’s a black man”. Really, I wish the MSM would realize we’re on to that little trick, and stop already.
