Feds Charge White Man With Hate Crime In First ‘Knockout Game’ Prosecution

[beenthere]

Who wouldn't have predicted this.




The Obama administration filed a federal hate-crimes charge Thursday against a man whom authorities accused of using the “knockout game” to target a black man, videotaping it, and then bragging about the assault to strangers.

The charge marks the first time the administration has taken action on a “knockout” case after the game became an Internet and media phenomenon. It chose a case in which the person accused is white, even though most other cases reported in the news have involved black assailants.

The suspect made a video of the attack November 24, the complaint said. In the video, he allegedly commented that “the plan is to see if I were to hit a black person, would this be nationally televised?”

In this case, the man accused is 27-year-old Conrad Barrett who the Justice Department says attacked a 79-year-old black man in Fulshear, Texas, just west of Houston. Justice Department officials said they brought the case to make a point about hate crimes.

He was just defending European culture.

Question: is it somehow worse to punch a guy randomly because he is a different race, than to just randomly punch a guy?

Also, I propose the banning of knockout videos. Child porn is illegal because it contains the video recording of a crime against a child. Does recording and then displaying, and subsequent viewing by other not do the same thing as child porn?

In other words, sick fucks that like to watch videos of innocent people attacked for no reason are like sick fucks that like to watch child porn.

As long as youre not the one hitting the innocent victim it is ok to derive satisfaction from the mistreatment of another?

Oh, make no mistake, I certainly despise this kind of behavior no matter what race is on the giving or receiving end.

I just wanted to see who would try to defend the Obama administration's selective justice by deflecting, I pretty much nailed it.

 

[abandonconflict]

Yeah, cause I was clearly defending obama.

That's what the OP was about and that's what I got out of your comment, others can decide on their own.

"Justice Department officials said they brought the case to make a point about hate crimes."

I have a question: is the point the justice department is making is that only white people can commit hate crimes?

So you blame Obama for some white booshdag breaking and old black guy's jaw and anyone who thinks that is absurd is defending Obama...

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

 

[Antidisestablishmentarian]

I think it's absurd. I also think it's absurd they aren't filing hate crime charges against other participants in this game.

There are plenty of videos and evidence in the past of blacks knocking out whites and calling it "polar bear hunting" and the mainstream media and the Obama administration chose to ignore it. Add that to the Justice Department dropping charges on the New Black Panthers, the president getting involved in the cases of Travon Martin and Henry Gates, I believe the evidence is overwhelming, how could you come to any other conclusion.

 

[Antidisestablishmentarian]

I don't know if they really are racist towards white people. I highly doubt it but they definitely leave me wondering sometimes.

Not at all but you trying to deflect it is quite absurd.
The OP speaks for itself, and so do your comments, people aren't blind, we'll leave it at that.

Poor white crackers, serves them right.

Why else would they call it "polar bear hunting" ?

Cool video, but a major fail.
Been under a rock? google knockout game or polar bear hunting.

I was referring to the justice department.

The gif was just added for the visual aspect.
The website has a lot of the knockout "game" and polar bear hunting with other stories.

No you said I was defending Obama by deflecting. Your exact words. I expect you'll delete the post now and play dumb.

Gotcha, my bad.
But with all the evidence pointing to it, it's kind of hard not think this administration's justice department isn't selective.
