RE: No indictment in Ferguson case

They almost always get a free pass when they do. The government is afraid of telling the truth because they think reporting it will lead to copycats and will further anger the irrational angry people out there. The Black Panthers were plotting to blow up whites in a terrorist attack, but their arrests got buried in the back of the newspapers. They are also afraid of racist groups like the KKK using it to justify their own behavior. Nobody wants to see the facts for what they are.

Here are examples of a few of the dozens of attacks that happened after the Trayvon Martin case.

Dallas Watts of Toldeo, Ohio, told police earlier this month that he was beaten by two kids while on his way home from a gas station. According to a police report cited by the Toledo Blade, the 78-year-old was kicked repeatedly by the 11-year-old and the 17-year-old while shouting, “[Get] that white [man]. This is for Trayvon ... Trayvon lives, white [man].

On April 17, two teens robbed and beat a white man in Chicago. According to MyFoxChicago, one of the assailants told police that the assault was motivated by anger over the killing of Trayvon and that he chose his victim because he was white. That teen was hit with a slew of charges, including one for hate crimes.

The most atrocious report was the one out of Mobile, Ala., from the weekend. A hoard of up to 20 people viciously beat Matthew Owens with pipes, chairs and cans of paint. According to the New York Daily News, “Owens’ sister and another witness say that as the group left, one assailant said: ‘Now that’s justice for Trayvon’ following the assault.”
