Yeah, more racial bigotry

Nothing missing huh? Really? How many men can punch a woman in the face and be released without bail? -snip-

That struck me as odd too.

However upon reading the article I saw that he is a prof at the university.

With those kinda ties etc, and such a low level offense, it's normal that he'd be released on his own recognizence (sp?)

What? This is usually the case with domestic violence (to protect women who refuse to press charges on the husband), but not regular assault. They need you to press the charges to know you will testify.

Otherwise it is mutual combat.

Sometimes in bar fights they will come in and arrest those who fought for something else, like drunk in public, disorderly conduct, etc...because they cant get you for A&B when noone will press charges.

As I stated, that is only when no one else witnesses it. Not in a situation like this in public. Only one person needs to say they saw the assault and the witness does not have to file charges. If they refuse to testify, the prosecutor can and will still get a conviction using the witness' testimony. In domestic abuse the problem is most of the time only the husband and wife are present. Trust me I know little bit about assault and battery

 

[Fern]

No they don't. If I hit someone and the cops are called, if anyone witnesses it the police files charges, not the victim. Not when it comes to assault and battery.

Not around here. The police will ask you (the person punched etc) if you wanna file charges.

Edit: I'll add that, around here anyway, police don't file charges - the state does and that takes a prosecutor. The police can arrest you, but it's the prosecutor's office that files the charges.

waaah, seriously, Whitey needs to grow some Balls.

This thread isn't about the Black Dude or White Chick in the article. It's all about White Whine and how it goes well with Outrage. Passive-Aggressive Racism, trying to appear as Victim. Pathetic.

[jonks]

In Alabama in 2000, 40% of the state voted to keep interracial marriage illegal. In 1998 South Carolina voted and only 62% voted to lift the ban. And those percentages represent millions of white folks. So racism is not gone by any means. Not excusing this fella, but I understand.

If I wanted to see the latest pictures of minority on white violence handpicked from the net to be outraged over why would I not just go to stormfront where they have a whole subforum dedicated to these threads?

Hate crime legislation only applies to crimes where the sole reason the crime was committed was bigotry. If a group of white kids beat up a black kid just because he is black, that's a hate crime. If some black guy is having a heated argument with a colleague and hits her, that's not a hate crime. He sounds like a complete dick, and he should probably lose his job and go to jail for a while to learn that punching someone without provocation is never acceptable behavior. But he didn't hit her just because she was some random white person. He knew her, he was arguing with her, and he crossed a line you should never cross.

Now if he had randomly punched some white woman walking down the street, I'd agree that should be considered a hate crime.

Hate crimes are almost never charged against those who assault or even murder white people, even though theoretically they apply. Even Colin Ferguson, who went out and shot a bunch of white people after telling people he was "gonna go shoot some white people", wasn't charged with a hate crime. The black animals in Knoxville who kidnapped a white couple, tortured and raped them for days, and then murdered them weren't charged with hate crimes, even though they admitted the couple was selected because they were white. Fair? Of course not. Life isn't fair, and the government can't make it so, it can only make things unfair in a different way. The idea is that you can balance it all out. For instance, you can lose your right to hire whomever you want if you only want to hire white people. This all came about because juries (and sometimes judges) in the South would fail to convict white defendants with black victims. The government can't make you convict the right people, but it can pass a whole new set of laws that in theory balance it out. And let's admit it, white guys are still doing pretty well for ourselves. It's not like we need special protection. (And if everyone had it, then it wouldn't be special, now would it?)

And in my defense my cousin is totally hot.

But I guess since it was a black guy punching a white woman over an arguement about "white privilege" it's not a civil rights violation
He gets out of jail without paying bail. If I punched a black chick in the face, I'd be called a racist bigot and be facing a civil rights case and the wrath of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

Hey genius, he punched her in the face because they were arguing not because she was white. Argument could have been about health care he probably still would have hit her (BTW - totally unacceptable in case you were going to insinuate).

Stop doing like a lot of people, looking for racism where there is none.

Life isn't fair.

So is that what you tell blacks when they complain about slavery? Didn't think so.

You don't say that when it someone you agree with that gets fucked up, you and the rest like you are hypocrites in the extreme.

What's great about this thread: No one has actually considered that the the alleged perpetrators were in a BAR.

As someone who put himself through college working for minimum wage plus tips at the local watering hole, I can attest to the general stupidity of college faculty & staff when the consumption of alcohol is involved.

Black dude and white woman get into a race argument. White girl pushes black dude and he pops her. Keep your hands to yourself. At least thats what my parents taught me.

My fault he pushed her, then he popped her. Thats not good. You can't go around punching women in the face for no reason. But there is some stuff missing in that article though. Because the police didn't file charges against him, she did. Usually you assault someone the police files charges.

Not after the black professor in Boston.

When a white person attacks a black person because of a racial incident it's awful.

When the reverse it true, it's all about white pride.


He deserves to be brought up on charges, but his race and status put him above the law and apparently many find that just.

Frankly if it were racially motivated I don't think you'd mind one bit. The last time there was a black professor involved you came up with this charmer.

"Honest Cop" is like "Honest Politician" --- it's an oxymoron"

Making excuses for the violence because a black professor is honest. Just like those police and politicians I guess.

 

[Dari]

i doubt it but if you punched a woman you'd be a fucking pussy just like this professor

qft.

Wow a black dude popped a white chick and now its let's get blood. The above the law comment makes you sound like a fvcking looney. How the hell is he now above the law? Stick with stuff that at least makes some sense. This guy will pay his due, its not like he beat the hell out of her like that white guy did that black girl a few weeks back. I bet my bottom dollar you ain't say a damn thing about that.

And the under no circumstances do I make an excuse for what this clown did. But at the same time he ain't the first guy to smack a woman up and he won't be the last.
