Video of man beaten, stripped prompting anger on Internet

This week, a video was posted online of a seemingly lost and disoriented man being swarmed by a group of young people, then sucker punched, robbed, and stripped naked of his clothing on a downtown Baltimore street. It's not clear where the video was first posted, but it made it to the now typical stops for such shock clips: Worldstarhiphop, LiveLeak, YouTube, Twitter.

What could have been just another tantalizing video turned into something else: outraged viewers say they have tracked down the identity of the man who threw the first punch, and police have connected a victim - who had reported an assault and theft to police but couldn't remember where it occurred - to the incident. Police say an investigation is moving forward.

Then what?

Your best best in such a situation is to use it on your family and self.

The repercussions to fighting back are far worse than giving up.

I agree with all of our collective decision- to do nothing but complain about Jessie not helping us.

No doubt ,one day, we will reach him.

I care for the future of our country. Obama and his minons are creating a race war and the thin skined congress is not doing anything about it.

Unless he was black, Al or our worthless president wouldn’t be bothered.

I disagree that the repercussions are far worse when fighting back. I’d ‘fear for my life’ in that situation and would rather be tried by 12.

It’s just more of Obama’s sons and Holder’s people having a little fun.

Is Jessie in Congress?

Al Shaprton?

They know how to help their people better than we do.

The zero’s race war has begun.

Fine. I won't be taking any prisoners.

If I'm going down somebody is going down with me.

And the thug will get off with a slap on the wrist and a $50 McDonalds gift card.

When I first got out of school in the mid-80’s, I was a chemist at a company in a predominately black light-industrial area on the southeast side of Baltimore city. I had to drive through the area to get on 95 to get to home in the evenings. I was spit at, called names, screamed at, the amount of blind racist hatred was shocking...
