Hate fueled weekend beating says elderly man

TOLEDO, Ohio (WUPW) - Saturday afternoon around 4:45 p.m., 78-year-old Dallas Watts was walking home from the gas station at the corner of Starr and White in East Toledo.

He was confronted by six juveniles between the ages of 11 to 17, and for the next three or four minutes was nearly beaten up to death because of the color of his skin.

Watts is calling the weekend attack that occurred a block away from his Mason Street home a hate crime. During the attack, Watts says he brought up Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen killed by a block watch member Feb. 26.

"Why me? Remember Trayvon! Remember Trayvon!," Watts recalled. "I meant it as a peaceful way. What happened to Trayvon, I was not responsible for, I live 1,000 miles away! But they kept saying, 'Kill him! Kill Him! Kill him!' because I'm a white man."

Now that NBC has admitted and apologized for the editing of the Zimmerman 911 call, he can used it as evidence what their manipulation of truth has caused. Good for FCC to see,also.

This society is well on its way to becoming a bunch of BS. I don’t know if decent people with good intentions are enough to hold it together.

And do the BLACK kids that did this get a free pass from our wonderful society?

Or the elderly couple in Tulsa, both beaten (wife raped, died the next day in the hospital). Nor do you hear any more about the black teens who doused a white boy with gas and set him on fire saying the white boy got what he deserved.

Paging Jesse and Al.

Not that I disagree with you, just saying how the MSM would handle it.

Of course, the text above should have read: "He should have been carrying one of these..."

The S&W is a great weapon. I opted for the Glock 30 due to its size; I have small hands. Biggest surprise was the lack of any serious recoil. Amazing gun to shoot.

Isn’t there special penal code for crime against elders?
I am sickened by these thugs. Just sick.

You are right, they don’t mention it. I think I just jumped to the conclusion when I saw 10 against 1 - pack mentalitiy. ;)

Just another lie by omission from the media.

Stupid cretin.

And the NBC & ABC coverage is largely responsible for inciting the idiots. The damage they cause should be blamed on the media, race pimps and Obozo. Sue the bastards. Impeach the Liar-in-Chief.

Two of the unidentified youths were charged with one count each of robbery while another youth was charged with disorderly conduct.

Were these the charges for two of these thugs BEFORE this incident, an earlier event?

Why do these wicked freaks single out the elderly to gang up on? They are the worst of the worst and deserve absolutely no leniency.

Never mind, I read the article - that always helps. :) The police hadn’t spoken to the victim, yet? Amazing.

Remember the murders of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom? You don’t?
It was ignored by the national media.
It was not a hate crime.
The kids were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Disgusting at what the media will play up these days.

It appears that blacks have declared war on whites. And how long, again, do whites have to pretend it’s a random thing?

THAT a-hole needed a 55-gr sleeping pill, too. Exactly. But for those nights when it's really tough to nod off permanently, I recommend the 185 gr JHP in the convenient .45Cal dispenser size.

Understood. Use it.

If you think that's bad try doing a Google search using "Black Crimes Against Whites" for other crimes the media has failed to report

Black Crimes Against Whites
