“No indications that it was a racial or terrorist thing”, right Fuzzy? Just another minor “random” killing.

if you’re white and living in those liberal cities, you best adopt the Bernhard Goetz defense strategy

or end up bleeding out curbside

Who said there were no indications it was a racial thing?

Just another minor “random” killing.

Funny, that's almost exactly what the New York Times said:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/10/nyregion/friends-mourn-man-fatally-assaulted-in-union-square-park.html?_r=0

Mr. Babbitt was walking through Union Square near Forbidden Planet last Wednesday when he was punched in the face seemingly at random by an assailant who, the police said, declared his intention to “punch the first white man I see.”

...

In a neighborhood that had long ago moved past its rough-and-tumble days, the seemingly random act of violence at 3 p.m. in a bustling park came as a shock.

I added the boldface.

These days it is impossible to parody the left. They are always worse than we imagine them to be.

a man shouting that he “hated white people” punched victim Jeffrey Babbitt — who is white — in the face, witnesses said, causing him to fall and strike his head on the ground.

Lashawn Marten, 31, who is black, “made statements to the effect that I’m going to punch the first white man that I see,” said NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly.

image Brooklyn resident Jeffrey Babbitt died at Bellevue Hospital after a seemingly unprovoked attack at Union Square.

Police were investigating the incident as a possible hate crime.

What behaviors make something a ‘hate crime’ in NYC?

Now, I am against thoughtcrime statutes, but if this isn’t a hate crime I’m a progressive.

Easy, white on black crime... other way around doesn’t count.

The New York Times headline for the article uses the phrase, "random hate crime."

It’s weird, they use , “hate crime,” in the headline, but they don’t use the word, “hate crime,” in the article. I wonder if their style guide allows something in the headline, not referred to in the article?

Open season on whites, but some are to cowardly to realize it.

I am in no way saying he deserved it but I’d be willing to bet $50 on who Babbitt voted for.

Well put; I was shocked when this story was originally announced on the news (radio, complete with details), and not surprised when it quickly disappeared. Another victim of the unassimilated contraband...
