I was involved in a similar incident a decade ago in San Fransico on a Mun(Mission and Army st).
A 30-something Chinese woman was standing about 5 feet in front of me and suddenly got jumped by three girls and two guys. I pulled them off her and they jumped out at the next stop, laughing.

They were smart enough not to hit me, but the uptight woman never said thanks or any acknologment.

The article says the kid's bus passes have been revoked, so justice has been served

As the thugs (of any race) of our society are allowed to act out and are given a free pass because of their "plight" we can expect more and more of this. It will only get worse.

Wait a sec fellows (before you riot); weren't the criminals arrested for aggravated assault ?
Seems it will not end (I really hope) with just the cancelled bus passes.

Yes they were black.
Yes they are criminals and should be prosecuted to the full extent.
But where is the "p.c. BS" exactly ?
What am I missing ?

Wasn't the man who came to the aid of the woman black also ?

You are part of the solution or part of the problem.

JFX - I believe that if the races were reversed, like one of the original posters said, you would have Al and Jesse on the news decrying it and organizing a march in seconds. Also, it would cover the nations headlines for a day or two, have several minutes every half hour on CNN for 12-24 hours, interrup your local programming with special updates and statements from the "reverends" demanding charges of hate crimes, lawsuits, etc. be brought, and so on...

So you thinKKK things would get better if a bunch of stupid white folks got together to scream and yell and stir up the mud ?
Yes, I would love it if The Rev's would stand against hate crimes of all persuasions , but they are not trying to solve the problem, only shine the light on themselves.
They are part of the problem.
As are all those that use an unfortunate incident like this to promote their point of view.

Why don't we let the rule of law take its course and save the histrionics for the hysterical.

Nope. Just pointing out the hypocrisy. You really missed that?

Well, your attempts at unbiased, logical and objective analysis are a bit much here buddy! Just because you are "sensitive" to the racial problems that certain races cause in this country (choose your hue, we have lots of them) and are anti-histrionic doesn't mean everyone is.

Before you continue spouting off you might want to hold a wet finger in the air and see which way the predominant wind blows, no matter if it smells bad to you - it obviously doesn't to a lot of people creating that wind. Ever think that you're pisssing into it buddy?

I see we have entered the ghetto of OT here.
I am holding up a finger buddy - can you guess which one it is ?

Interesting you don't have these types of incidents happening in states where almost everyone carries concealed weapons...

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc. And then there are just Americans.

Terms like "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey," "Caveman"... are O.K. But if someone uses Nigger, Towel-head, Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ... they're a racist.

There is the United Negro College Fund, Martin Luther King Day, Black History Month, Cesar Chavez Day, NAACP, and BET.

If some had WET (White Entertainment Television) ... they're racists. If someone started White Pride Day.. they would be called racists. If they had White History Month .. they'd be racists. If they had any organization for only whites to "advance" their lives ... they'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for that?

If they had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships... You know they'd be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US , yet if there were "White colleges" .. THAT would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, men believed that they were marching for their race and rights. If white men marched for their race and rights (Sadly some do), they'd be racists.

It is O.K. to be proud to be black, brown, yellow and red, and not be afraid to announce it. But if someone announced their white pride ... they'd be racists.

I don't get it. Why is it that only whites can be racists?

You might want to send a note on that subject to Jesse & Al.
