New York City Police are searching for this man who attacked a 65-year-old Asian woman in broad daylight in Midtown on the sidewalk on West 43rd Street near Ninth Avenue . The video below shows a man inside a building just a few feet away watching the attack. Like others, he does nothing. One person who did act was a security guard who walks over and closes the door.[Update: The NYPD has arrested Brandon Elliott for the crime].
The New York Post reported that the suspect yelled anti-Asian statements while he beat the woman, including, “F—k you, you don’t belong here.”
One man stops undoing packages to watch the entire attack without intervening. Then two building security officers appear to walk over and close the door. The Post reports that the guard insisted that he was unaware of the attack. However, he could at a minimum clearly see the woman in distress on the ground.
The New York police department has recorded a 1,300 percent increase in hate crimes against Asian Americans during the pandemic.
Attacks on the lives of Asians are a serious issue. Especially when their admissions to Harvard or Yale are limited even when their test scores are higher. These attacks are somehow justified because of their Asian supremacy and their clinging to the ideals of family and hard work. These attacks by woke supremacist educators must stop.
The MSM is all aghast at the increase of attacks on Asians. Like a bird on a June bug they jump to claim white supremacy because they are laying in wait to find it. As more of these attacks are perpetuated by Black and Syrian supremacist their pages and screens will go blank along with their so heartfelt concerns for the Asian community. If it can’t be used for political purposes it along with their heartthrobs for the attacks on Asians will quickly disappear.
The “recorded a 1,300 percent increase ” link goes to an article that doesn’t seem to mention the stats at all.
This attack is horrendous. Shame on the bystanders for doing nothing. I hope someone who knows the attacker identifies him to the police.
The battery of this woman will not make the fake news, broadcast or print — a least not ALL of the facts. Perhaps the fake news will identify the victim, but leave the “color” of the criminal to one’s imagination: probably a “white” supremisist. The victim is not someone who matters because only black lives matter to the fake media. And here .. it’s the pictured criminal who is black.
I guess all the white people used their privilege to just stand there. See–instantly it’s about whites which, naturally, lead to supremacy and Hitler!
You seem clever, just try using a little imagination. 🙂
Typical immoral “don’t get involved” New York City mentality.
Yes it’s immoral and yes it’s typical!
Also safer. In New York if you interfere with a black man who is minding his business attacking some old lady you will likely be taken to jail yourself when the police come–if they come. On the other hand, if the attacker is arrested he will be back on the streets in hours because bail is racist.
Why bother?

There is a man literally beating a little old lady to death and you have the gall ask “why bother”?
Don’t you have any morals?
Don’t you have a soul?
Are you a coward?
What the heck has happened to people in our world to drive them to come up with a immoral rationalizing comment like that one from Young?
Are you just trolling Young?
Your summary picked up only part of the story. The Who-Whom aspect was left unsaid. There is indeed a racial aspect to the across the board uptick in crime in the US, but it has little to do with Asians other than as a handful of the broader group of victims.
I’m not here to hate on blacks. The guy who did this probably was motivated as much by mental illness as by racism. This assailant was not normal.
MY POINT HERE IS TO STOP THE REVERSE RACISM OF DEMOCRATS.
Please hear me, Asians, this attack will not be reported by the mainstream (i.e. Democrat) media because it doesn’t fit their favorite narratives. Instead, the media will blame EVERTHING on “white supremacists” and report bogus hate-crime stats. Hate-crime stats are misleading because many Democrat prosecutors believe only whites should be charged with hate crimes. When one looks at the larger categories of violence against Asians, whites are actually underrepresented. The media will distort any isolated incident, like Atlanta, and call it proof of white supremacy. THE MEDIA ARE LYING TO YOU TO FOOL YOU.
If 80% of Asian-Americans don’t wake up to the big lie that’s being told about anti-Asian attacks, the situation will not improve for them.
Just sayin’, my friends.
“this attack will not be reported by the mainstream (i.e. Democrat) media”
You know, if you’d simply bothered looking before you wrote that, you’d have found that it’s been widely reported in the mainstream media: NY Times, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, Newsweek, …
Just Google Asian woman West 43rd and limit the results to the last 24 hours.
I stand happily corrected–and amazed. Hopefully, this is a trend against reverse racism and scapegoating–not holding my breath on that.
And above all, I ALSO CONDEMN ATTACKS AGAINST ASIANS.
The vast majority of Asians should never be blamed for what Beijing does to them and us.
I’m not fully read up so I don’t know if a true Cynic would condemn *any* attacks or not. Whatever I am, I do (condemn physical violence in any form that is: I didn’t mean the phrase to sound so metaphysical, but that does seem apropos)
The school of Cynicism is a big tent. Comedians and skeptics have front row seats 🙂
I feel bad for the lady who was assaulted, but only reason we’re even seeing these attacks is because the victims are Asian. Blacks have been attacking whites and Jews for years with the “knockout game” and the media has ignored it. The only evidence of it comes from videos that people posted to YouTube. There is one where a black man stops his car in the middle of the street, gets out and sucker-punches an elderly Hasidic man, then gets back in his car and calmly drives away. No, you will never see that on CNN. The MSM is absolutely committed to the myth of black victimhood, when in fact the black race as a whole has constituted a crime wave unleashed on Americans of every ethnicity, including themselves, since 1865. We all know it, and nobody but the limp-wrested white liberals will even bother to attempt to deny it. What to do about it? I don’t know. Personally, I would build as many prisons as necessary in the deserts out west, and simply remove these thugs from society for a minimum of 10 years. If that results in “mass incarceration” of blacks, so be it. Mass crime SHOULD result in mass incarceration. Going soft on criminals, as in NY, DC and SF has only emboldened them, so we know that’s not going to work.
Why don’t you link to the video you’re talking about, and let’s test your claim that the media ignored it. Hopefully your video will say something about the date and location.
“Mass crime SHOULD result in mass incarceration.”
Glad to know that you also want them to beef up investigation of white collar crimes.
“Glad to know that you also want them to beef up investigation of white collar crimes.”

I do. A lot of the Obama and Harris-Somebody Else administration belong in jail.
Unlike you, I want white collar criminals prosecuted regardless of who employed them.
Easy – just go on YouTube and type in “attacks on Orthodox Hasidic Jews.” There are LOTS of videos on there. Shocking, really. Go see it for yourself. All the same perps. Most were reported by local news stations but I didn’t see any reported by CNN, MSNBC, etc. So the national news isn’t interested so long as the perp is black. Doesn’t fit the false narrative of blacks as victims.
If you type attack hasidic Jew site:cnn.com into Google, you’ll also get a lot of reporting, so what you suggest doesn’t prove anything.
You made a claim about a specific attack, and you said “There is one where a black man stops his car in the middle of the street, gets out and sucker-punches an elderly Hasidic man, then gets back in his car and calmly drives away. No, you will never see that on CNN,” and I’m asking you to prove it.
Nothing new to New York….or any. other large urban area for that matter.
New York City,….March 13, 1964 a Twenty-Eight Year old Woman was stabbed to death and cried out for help but Thirty-Eight Witnesses did NOTHING…..so this spineless despicable Security Guard is not a unique individual.
Evil can prosper when Good Men stand idle and do nothing.
A Good Man cannot stand by and do. nothing in the presence of evil.
Calhoun’s “Behavioral Sink” findings done in the his 1950’s research on Rats clearly shows us there is a link to population density and behavior….and NYC Dwellers are the Human equivalent of the Rat Populations he studied.
New Yorkers and other big cities confirm his findings.
The guy inside was protecting those inside. The nitwits at the Capitol Bldg failed to bar the door.
He and his partner could have stepped outside THEN shut the door….and protected both the victim and the occupants inside the building.
As it the attack was almost over as he did shut the door….the least the two of them could have done is assist the victim until the Police and EMS arrived.
We are our Brother’s keeper you know….or are you the kind of Man that would just shut the door and watch an elderly woman being attacked and do nothing?
Your [neighbor’s] blood cries out to Me from the ground.
One does not need to think or analyze facts … if one can just blame President Trump and every one of his supporters!
LIberty2nd ignores the inhumanity of the attack, while protecting the cowardice of the “security” guard.
This is not new. it is much like the knockout game and polar-bear hunting (victim is white, the perpetrator is not) that happened 5-10 years ago in NYC. The problem today is that NYC politicians and Woke people prefer this to challenging their Wokeness. They permit this type of violence to continue.
If the private security guard had moved onto the public sidewalk and used force to subdue the attacker to save the woman from having her head kicked in, de Blasio’s NYPD likely would have arrested him and/or Turley’s buddies at the ACLU – or Ivy educated partners at white shoe law firms – would sue him and his employer.
What a bunch of bigots here!! Who are you going to believe? Your moral and intellectual bettors who say “white supremacists” are responsible for these attacks or your own lying eyes?

What is important about Asian Americans? They’re AMERICANS! It was the Communist Party of China that unleashed this pox on humanity. Haven’t we learned anything since world war II when patriotic Japanese Americans, some of whom served proudly in the war, suffered at the hands of FDR in internment camps? Black, White, whoever, these attackers are criminals and cowards, no more, no less.
Lock em up and throw away the key. Kotematsu is still the law. Hugo wrote the opinion.
Oh, no, not a criminal! Someone has already posted here that the criminal who battered this woman is mentally ill – with no facts to support such a foolish statement; just another person fabricating some excuse for someone, especially a black person, who does wrong.
That must be that “White Supremacy” the Democrats talk about. Can you picture this guy at the border as a greeter?
Boy, that White Supremacy is getting out of hand. To hear the propagandists in the media, it is whitey who are the attackers. Maybe they need glasses??
FBI statistics show blacks committed a higher percentage of racist attacks on Asians than any other ethnic group.
Black hostility to Asians goes far back. Decades ago blacks were angry with Korean shop owners for ‘stealing’ black opportunities by opening stores in black neighborhoods.
See Keith Richburg, “Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa”.
Wendy: “To hear the propagandists in the media, it is whitey who are the attackers. Maybe they need glasses??”

Are there new lenses that will make them honest?
You you can hear the person that recorded this video if you listen close to him saying these words. “Oh. Oh shit. Man.” He says it under his breath and you have to listen close. I did and I can clearly hear it with my LG headphones turn completely up. And, watch the guard close. You can see him turn his head and watch it all!!!!!!!!
How I wish to God I would’ve been there!!! My wife and I, and all 4 of our grown sons, and there wives and everyone of our friends despise this kind of vile evilness out of the most dangerous race in America. THE BLACK RACE!!!! They have been a blight on this nation since the days of emancipation. This is one born & raised NW Montanan that does not back up, back down from what I believe!!! His needed to be beat so bad, he is in an ICU for months! In a full body cast, then disfigured for life!!!!!
I know so many white people feel like I do, they’re just too damn scared to admit it!! I am for my race only. If your not then you are for the destruction of your own race. What’s happening in our nation is what happened, and it is still happening in South Africa. I recommend everybody read this book. I’ve met the author and I have been in and out of South Africa. Before and after apartheid.

Guy that says he is only for the white race but a white person was not the victim here, so you would have stood by as well.
Why is it that Jonathan’s blog routinely has lots of white supremacists posting on it? Is it just a coincidence, or do they see him as one of them?
White supremacists? Where? Around every corner according to CNN, the Washington Compost and every other communist rag and program. Go stick your communist head into a windmill loser!
“I am for my race only. If your not then you are for the destruction of your own race.”
BS. I am for people of all races. That doesn’t harm my race, and even if it did, it’s more important to me for all of humankind to do well than for my race to do well.
Is it my imagination, or are many of the attackers black?
Press is too concerned with white privilege to report accurately, but DOJ crime statistics support my impression.
The sick and cynical aspect to this rise in attacks on Asian heritage people is the refusal of the propagandists jn the press and government, to renounce by name ALL major groups responsible.
I wonder when Chris Wallace is going to ask the President to renounce attacks on Asians by black hate mongers?
Shirley Jackson was right.
mistressadams: Shirley Jackson, the American novelist and short story writer? What was she right about?
ALL of the several different videos I have seen depicting attacks on Asians have involved Black perpetrators. The left wing media would have us believe a false narrative that ”White Suprematists” are behind attacks on Asian Americans. We should reject the left wing’s anti-White propaganda campaign to divide our country along racial lines!
The country is already divided along racial lines and always will be. I suggest an alternate division: Split the country in half geographically. On one side you have Republicans; on the other side will be blacks, white liberals, and Democrats. Divide them by a moat filled with alligators, razor wire fences and guard towers with sharp shooters. The blacks will prey upon the white liberals and eventually kill them all, but that’s their problem. I’m sure they’ll go to their grisly deaths blaming themselves….lol.
