A video has emerged from last St. Patrick’s Day that shows a brutal attack on a tourist in Baltimore who is beaten, robbed, and stripped naked as a crowd stands around and laughs. No one reportedly called police and someone stood filming the scene of utter inhuman and depraved conduct by the crowd. [Update: A second video of the brutal attack has emerged]
On the video, the tourist is largely passive when he walks a few feet toward a man, who proceeds to hit him in the face and causing the victim to hit the ground with considerable force. The man appears dazed as people proceed to beat him and steal his clothes and belongings. The tourist is stripped of his car keys, watch, money and iPhone.
Until the video was released, the man never knew what happened. He woke up at his hotel with cuts and bruises and no memory of the horrific attack.
Obviously, the place to start is the person who thought this was a funny scene and posted the video on YouTube. Then there are the people who brag and laugh about the attack on the video.
While the victim appears white and his attackers black, there has been no suggestion that the attack was a hate crime or racially motivated. There has also been relatively little outrage nationally about this attack.
I count at least a dozen separate crimes on the film from repeated assaults to robbery by at least seven different people. Some, upon seeing the man in a helpless state, immediately walk over to strip him of any valuables rather than offer assistance or call the police. It is the lack of humanity shown in the film that makes these people so dangerous to society — they show no feelings or sympathy for the victim who is merely an object to be taunted and abused.

That Travon piece of nigger shit got what the fuck that nigger bastard deserved!
Chris – there was stolen property. They clearly pulled something out of his pocket.
Furthermore, all states save North Carolina allow for a citizen’s arrest if the arresting person witnesses a felony. So yeah, he had every right to approach and detain the guy that just stole something from him. Some are saying it was an iPhone…Those are worth several hundred dollars.
Thanks, done.
Time
for white revenge against these black bastards! Go in armed to the teeth, set these jungle monkey cock suckers up then come out blastin when attacked.
>We can’t beat shoplifters to death, no, but we can ADVANCE at them and >detain them.
Only if they are on private property. This is a public place. And no, public citizens don’t have the power to detain someone. And as you can see from the video, no theft happened at the time.
>That is, in fact, what people tend to do. The guy in the green shirt did >JUST that. There was no indication he was doing anything other than >trying to get back what he thought was his stolen property.
There was no stolen property, and thus no right to advance threateningly on someone.
Baltimore, when did there arise a duty to account to a stranger for my presence on a particular street at a particular time of the day or night? How have we reached the point where people will excuse a shooting when it appears that the victim had not responded to questioning by the shooter? What happened to “it’s none of your business why I’m here and what I’m doing”? Who bestowed upon Mr. Zimmerman the right to demand information from anyone for any reason?
I voiced opposition to the ridiculous “stand your ground” law when it was first proposed. As expected, its benefits have accrued only to those who in a rational society would never be permitted to carry deadly weapons in the first place.
In the Zimmerman case, I will stick with my original prediction. Mr. Zimmerman will be charged and will eventually plea to some version of manslaughter with minimum jail time.
I’m sure these cuprits will be brought to justice and will live to regret their crimes as they do some HARD probation, and serve out a lengthy suspended sentence
Looks like typical niggers to me ! Always in a gang against some poor cracker.
Chris McCauley is the reason why people think this is okay. People only act like it because there are people like him out there that will be apologists ande deny the truth of the matter.
“He didn’t take anything, he just reached at his pocket as a joke.
You aren’t allowed to advance on someone with the threat of violence simply because they attempted to steal something. If that was true we could simply beat shoplifters and pickpockets to death. We can’t: it’s against the law. ”
We can’t beat shoplifters to death, no, but we can ADVANCE at them and detain them. That is, in fact, what people tend to do. The guy in the green shirt did JUST that. There was no indication he was doing anything other than trying to get back what he thought was his stolen property. That is why the police aren’t even mentioning it – because he was clearly in the right.
This is nothing like the Trayvon Martin case. This man was standing on a street minding his own business and then was robbed beaten, and stripped. The people in this video are a disgrace to humankind.
Trayvon Martin was asked why he was walking in a private neighborhood, all he had to do was answer the question. Trayvon escalated the situation into a fight which ultimately ended his life.
The beating in the Baltimore case began after the victim had his iPhone stolen from his pocket (for no reason), pursued the thief, was knocked out, and then a mob of people joined to continue beating, robbing, and stripping him. The Trayvon altercation began with Zimmerman asking Trayvon a question, instead of answering, he turned it into a fight…hardly the same thing.
im not “allowed” to say it but i could care less at this point… you have black folks, ok, no different that anyone else, but then you have “niggers” – people like the scabs in this video that do nothing but reinforce the stereotypes of days past. and like dude said, there was a video of something like this posted on a site called WORLDHIPHOP!!! yeah, tell me that this whole gangsta bullshit doesnt promote and encourage this type of behavior. like he said – its monkey-like! not in the sense of a stereotypical name-calling but in the fact that a single primate is a little more dosile, get about 20 of em together though and its a different story! and where IS the big hot-shot WHITE super lawyer thats looking for justice? nowhere, because he would be labeled as a racist and prob killed for going after the black man, but had this been a black dude getting beat up by a crowd of white people then mr sharpton and mr jackson and other black people of high position would have been all over it before the gereral public would have even got a glimpse of it and again, without a general population concensus of what THEY feel to be justice, it would have been LA or Watts all over again. theres just no way i can bitch about this without coming off as some racist hillbilly, which im really not, i just dont pull any punches and tell it the way i see it, i really dont care if someone gets on here and types me up a whole story about how racist i am, my friends, family and aquaintences know that i could care less what color you are but again, theres black people and theres fuckin niggers. theres mexican people and theres fuckin spics, theres WHITE people and theres fuckin worthless, trailer park meth-head hilljacks. every color and ethnicity has its “bad ones” the ones that ruin it for everyone else and in this video, black people can thank these niggers for helping the fact that this country is STILL full of ignorance, disrespect, racism, and all that shit. its a wonder how weve advanced as far as we have when people still live and behave as if they were fucking cavemen
Justice for Treyvon
Police are investigating the “racially motivated” beating of a 27-year-old
man who was walking home from midtown bars early Saturday when he said he was jumped by five to eight men who shouted “Trayvon” before the attack.

“While the victim appears white and his attackers black, there has been no suggestion that the attack was a hate crime or racially motivated. There has also been relatively little outrage nationally about this attack.” Mr. Turley, if the situation had been reversed, this would be a ‘hate crime’, with the full force of the DOJ investigating and Al Sharpton fomenting. No “suggestion” needed. Another disturbing fact is the lack of reporting on this incident. Are you telling me the major news networks are unaware of this incident?? Shameful and pathetic.
this is BULLSHIT!! if that were a BLACK man being beaten and robbed and stripped by a crowd of WHITE guys, this shit would be on every news station all across the country and labeled as a “vicious hate crime”, riots would break out all over the place and it would be LA, or watts all over again, yet its the white people that are soooooooo racist? kiss my ass! its shit like this that happens all the time all over the place is the reason i have a concealed carry permit. what, this shit is FUNNY? its GANGSTA? it should be humiliating to africian americans as a whole that THIS is what 20 or 30 people of that culture find amusing to do out in public. makes me fucking sick. makes me wish i was passing by when this shit was happening…
I agree with you jimmy, if I had been passing by this group of A$$HOLES I would have come to this mans aid and “STOOD MY GROUND”. I am so ashamed that this is happening during a time where stereotyping people is on the rise. You go and videotape yourself robbing a single man, he’s solo where is the pride or honor in that, steeling his money and phone stripping him naked? are you serious naked inthe streets? These people are terrorist and should be convicted as such!
As much as it pains me thou, I can only feel a small amount of shame because I am far beyond where these people are even thou I was born and raised in baltimore city. Too think that this could have been me, using the streets as a excuse to act like a….ok im going to say it….like a monkey! Watch a troup of monkeys on a hunt and then watch this tape!
Oh my God, I cant believe you said that and your black, stop acting like it then!! STOP IT!!! STOP IT!!!!
Where are the black leaders? Where are the “justice for all” marches and rallies, how come I have seen any funds being raised for the victim in this video….My point is, take people who think there tough and send them to Iraq. Having your butt buddy videotape you and a group of people beating up one guy for no reason is not cool and it doesnt make you gangsta, its doesnt make you hard, its makes you a B*TCH!
These are not men and women, these are monsters…little gremlins that shouldnt be fed after midnight.
Now all that being said, I dont think it was racially motivated because this has been going on for a long time nation wide and its not always white people, I saw one where a group walked up to a black guy and robbed and beat the hell out of him on tape to put on a website called worldhiphop.com that is what this thing is yells out in the video.
If it was racially motivated…DEATH PENALTY! these people have no conscience and this goes beyond amking a mistake in life..this guy might not ever be the same, NOW YOU HAVE CREATED A RACIST!
its disgusting, its alike a pack of wolves…the females are loud and distractions to the men as they walk slowly up to take stuff out of your pockets. The purpose of it is to humilate you on camera so it can be uploaded to youtube. Guess that facial recognition technology is broken huH? Lots of these videos are made all over the nation, this is not new it just hasnt happend to you yet
Kinda makes you proud to be an American. Don’t it?
I’m not surprised at their messages. Not being a social webber I wonder how the news spreads that there is a new carcass to feast on. Have this generation developed new sense organs, or is it banal ass-hacking waiting patiently for the right flimmer on the screen.
Civilization’s overflow enabled all this. Amazing differentaltion of phenotypes.
I don’t see Black politicians or the social justice community wearing green Mountain Dew shirts to protest this obvious hate crime.
From the article:
“shows a brutal attack on a tourist in Baltimore”
He’s not a tourist. He commuted to Baltimore from VA because the drinks are cheaper there.
“On the video, the tourist is largely passive when he walks a few feet toward a man,”
A. Humping someone from behind is not passive.
B. Advancing towards someone in a threatening manner is not passive. It’s assault.
C. He is not a tourist.
D. If he wanted to be passive, he would walk AWAY from the other man, AWAY from the girl he was humping and AWAY from the crowd.
It’s hard to imagine anybody that thinks Palin is a smart person.
Other than John McCain, I mean…
FN,
You make me sick.
Racism has reared its head here. I could come up with literally thousands of major incidents where white mobs assaulted black people. In fact some of those writing today on this thread would be the first to join a mob ganging up on someone. Most racists are cowards making up for their lack of courage by blaming the “other”. They are also highly ignorant in their perceptions of the world. To them Sara Palin and Rick Perry are smart people.

“A couple of semi-nude individuals were performing lude acts in front of him, so the victim looks to just walk away.”
Not true. He’s clearly INTENTIONALLY HUMPING a girl from behind. He is engaging in lewd acts as well. Painting him as some innocent bystander is a crock.
DHM Carver said: “Not sure why Chris McCauley is trolling this blog — the video shows the man had his pocket picked by one of the people who ended up assaulting him”
Not true, they touched his pocket as a joke. Nothing more. Even if the person did attempt to steal from him, that doesn’t warrant a threatening advance from the person. You aren’t allowed to assault someone or threaten to hurt them simply because they tried to steal from you.
And I’m not trolling the blog. I’m stating the truth.
Jude said:
“Watch the video again. The guy who punches him reached into his pocket and either stole something or tried to steal something. At that point, of course he’s going to advance at the guy – to get his shit back.”
He didn’t take anything, he just reached at his pocket as a joke.
You aren’t allowed to advance on someone with the threat of violence simply because they attempted to steal something. If that was true we could simply beat shoplifters and pickpockets to death. We can’t: it’s against the law.
Jude also said:
“As for “going all over” – I live in Maryland and have never “gone all over” to drink. I drink in Baltimore. Or, if there is a show in DC, I go to DC.”
So…. you’re just proving my point. You can commute to Baltimore to drink or you can commute to DC to drink. Neither thing makes you a “tourist”. The attempt to call this person a “tourist” is to paint him as an innocent person from somewhere far off who is being victimized. He likely drinks in Baltimore all the time just as you do. We all have cars. We can all drive to bars. We all live in the same area. I can drive to Annapolis, Baltimore or DC to entertain myself.
There is no evidence that any of the black people in this video live in Baltimore either. Does that make them “innocent tourists” if they’re from Annapolis or Towson? No. The author is just using the word “tourist” to try to give you the idea of a naieve innocent bystander, which he isn’t. He’s a drunk asshole humping a girl in public, assaulting a man and getting punched out.
