FULL TITLE: Strangers raise $100,000 for Chicago teen 'torture' victim in just two days: Online donations pour in for disabled man brutally attacked on Facebook Live

An online fundraising campaign for the family of a disabled teen who was tortured on Facebook Live has surpassed more than $100,000 in donations.

In just two days a GoFundMe page has gone viral to help out the 18-year-old special needs victim who was 'kidnapped' and tortured in Chicago.

The fundraiser's creator said the bid was to aid the family in financial support and to 'prove that there is far more good in this world than evil'.

“Fresh” is a lousy way to market food.

But then “massage” and “meat service” may be clever advertising.

I’m guessing it’s legal syntax for the inevitable, but pending conviction.

Doing all they can to minimize the severity. Ass hats want to rewrite that he volunteered to stay up and be “annoyed” for 48 hours I guess. Soon it’ll be a fraternity pledging. He’s now the member of an exclusive club.

Originally the charge of “kidnapping” was not brought until all the evidence, esp. the video, was reviewed. One of the perps, the sneering Cooper I believe, called the kid’s mother and “reportedly” (according to the police) demanded $300 for the return of her son.

That act, in and of itself, would turn a “false imprisonment” act into kidnapping, with all the sentencing goodies it has. This bastard could get anywhere from 10 years to 25 or more just on the kidnapping alone.

Other charges both issued and possible include aggravated assault, assault with a weapon, assault with intent to main, false imprisonment for the early hours, conspiracy to kidnap (for all of them), “accessories” to all of the above, and the good old Holder/Obama/Lynch anti-white charge of a “hate crime”.

Well the worm has turned and now it is a bunch of black thugs and psychos who are facing the additional, pile-on charge of committing a hate crime, and oh horrors, against a defenseless, disabled white kid.

The Black Left is pissing all over themselves on this one with a few honest black leftists/liberals either honestly condemning this act because IT WAS WRONG, or in order to cover their leftist, anti-white asses. I hope the real black liberals are sincere in their condemnations.

And there is no bail for these bastards. However, you never know whether NYU, Columbia, Harvard, Rutgers, UCLA or Un. of Chicago will give them scholars so that they can turn their lives around.

GITMO has some new openings so let’s fill them for the next 25-50 years.

It is simply a miracle that young man thankfully survived the ordeal and was not executed at the conclusion of videoing.

"Online donations pour in for disabled man brutally attacked on Facebook Live"

Why is that this 18 year old person, who has a child like mental function, is called a "man", yet the 18 year old "gentle giant", Michael Brown of Ferguson MO, was always a child?

Probably like our press uses the word alleged, even if the perp is holding a knife in one hand and a severed head in the other.
