'I was robbed, beaten and mocked for being white': Man's viscious 'racial attack' on New York subway
Daily Mail ^ | 7/18/11 | Daily Mail Reporter

Posted on 07/18/2011 5:08:14 PM PDT by Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears

A New York man was beaten and robbed on a subway train yesterday by four men who he claims picked on him because he is white.

Jason Fordell, 29, of Brooklyn, was on his way home at 5am from an East Village nightclub, where he sells hand-designed leather accessories, when he was affronted by a gang of black men.

Police said four young men began harassing him and then another passenger joined in the spontaneous attack.

Mr Fordell said: 'Everyone on the train was egging them on.

'People started saying stupid little comments - cracker this, white boy this, f*** this.'

He told the New York Daily News: 'I told them the only reason they were saying this is there was four of them and one of me.

'I'm a small little white kid with long hair. They got guys three times my size threatening me.

He added: 'I was in a headlock, punched and kicked on the floor.

It sounds to me like all they had to do was listen to this a few more times:

I was a printer for 20 years and was told also by an art teacher that black and white are not colors.

as a general rule, they’re only aggressive when they outnumber someone at least 3 to 1, or outweigh someone by at least 50 pounds.

If you are white, you need to be pulling chocks and heading to a state that allows constitutional carry.

My .357 mag says I don’t have to appologize for being white.

Living in a homogeneous non diverse, clean, crime-free suburb is the answer to this. You can't live with or near the urban black underclass. It is just too dangerous, for both Blacks and Whites. And it has grown worse under Obama: Blacks read ZERO'S class warfare rhetoric in racial code. And thugs are so dumb they feel that someone reduced to riding a 5AM NY subway is “privileged.”
If one HAS to stay in a NYC or Chicago, concealed carry is a must. No matter what unconstitutional “laws” local hacks may have crafted to foil the plain language of the Second Amendment.

They’re neutrals, yes, and have no particular “color” as an artist would view the matter.

We were just speaking technically regarding color spectrum. Luminant color would have black be the absence of color and white the totality of it; think of all the little red, green and blue pixels on your monitor all firing at once to make bright white.

Conversely, in printing, you have cyan, magenta and yellow, which in theory combined fully represent the totality of color, ie black, and the absence of it would be white.

In reality, the three process colors need a boost with black ink due to limitations in the process and in the inks themselves, so you get CMYK or four color process printing. There’s hexachrome printing also, with six colors, for high budget printed catalogs, table books and such. Much richer color, with two more inks added to fill in weaker areas of color gamut with CMYK.

Pity that the world is becoming a great big tribe. See McLuhan, "Understanding Media." See the erosion of "Western" values as media makes the world a mob.

Civilization has always had to kick some tribe's ass, hasn't it?

“5AM on a Brooklyn train is a death wish.”

These days, 5 AM on your own anywhere in a U.S. big city is a death wish. But Brooklyn is like the epicenter of death wishes.
