This week the Chicago Tribune published several news stories and related columns about assaults by groups of youths in the Streeterville area of downtown Chicago. More coverage appears Sunday.
A number of readers have asked why we have not included racial descriptions of the assailants and the victims in these incidents.

Gotta read the article.
If the race of all perpetrators was printed the public would become aware of the outrageously high percentage of blacks involved in crime. Can’t have that. It’s racist.
Where I live there is a large democrat population. There are crime reports of recent crimes that avoid mentioning race. “Be on the lookout for 2 six foot males on foot last seen...”
Is it worth endangering the public to please the PC watchers?
Don’t we need to know relevant information to protect ourselves?
Might a witness come forward if they had basic identifying description?
It also explains why, if a politician’s commits a crime and the party is not mentioned in the first paragraph or two, you know he’s a Democrat.
When the criminals are real close to 100% members of one race, that should be considered relevant. It should scream out, "Hey, there's a problem here!"
Had it been a group of whites assaulting a black...
National news lead story.
Newsweek and Time covers on white racism.
Talk shows address it.
Al and Jesse and other race pimps march.
Group of blacks target ONLY whites for assaults?
Local news only.
Race wasn’t a factor.
No hate crime.
Justice Department, as stated now on their website (!!!), doesn’t care.
Exactly so.
Translation - we only reference race when a whitey does it.
I have also pointed out that they would share some blame were I to put two in the chest of some poor black man seeking directions at a traffic light and they had failed to tell me the current rash of car jackings was being perpetrated by Asian dwarfs.....
Reporters used to report. Remember, “Who, what, where, why, when and how?”
Now these PC MSM rags are in the business of protecting us from un-PC news.
No wonder the dinosaur MSM is dying. They can’t “shield” us from the truth anymore, not in the era of the internet, talk radio and FOX.
I’ve not followed this story at all, but just reading the Chicago Jokeume’s article told me all I need to know about the race of the perps.
Liberals are soooooo transparent.
Libs, most of we conservatives can outthink you after we’re three days in the grave. Just give us the facts and we can figure it out. After all, we’re the ones that gave you science. You gave us marxism. Go figure which group is more capable of judgement.
Be careful about disparaging Holder’s people.
Since Obama can claim to be “Black” I would imagine there has been enough interbreeding that they can claim “White” or “Hispanic”, etc., as the race of the perpetrators.
I defer to the all knowing, all seeing “cube”...
The collapse of the economy will pretty much ignite a race war, when the welfare class stops getting it’s free meals.
I feel that a united GOP behind a true reformer instead of a RINO is the best bloodless solution to fix this country.
However, that might push Soros into dropping the economic Barakolypse bomb before Nov. 2012 to suspend the elections.
I like it when they play the race card....... shows them to be nothing more than what they were born with after all those years. Be they of any color, race , creed or origin.
They out themselves to be helpless and dumb as a new born babe with a diaper full of crap.
My opinion.
