If it was a black guy beaten up & tortured.
On 10 November 2016, conspiracy theory web site InfoWars posted a video of a white man being pushed and kicked by a group of younger African-American people. (The article bore the inflammatory headline, "SHOCK VIDEO: BLACK MOB VICIOUSLY BEATS WHITE TUMP VOTER.")
The roughly 30-second video shows an older white man in a blue sweatshirt getting pushed to the ground and kicked by the younger people, while several people can be heard off-camera accusing him of voting for Donald Trump:

Cook County prosecutors on Thursday filed hate-crime charges against four African-American defendants accused of holding a white mentally disabled man captive, torturing him for hours and posting videos of acts that police Supt. Eddie Johnson called “reprehensible” and the White House condemned.
Jordan Hill, 18, of Carpentersville, and Tesfaye Cooper, 18, Brittany Covington, 18, and Tanishia Covington, 24, all of Chicago, are expected to appear in bond court Friday, according to the Cook County state’s attorney’s office.
They face charges of aggravated kidnapping, hate crime, aggravated unlawful restraint and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon. Hill is also charged with robbery, residential burglary and possession of a stolen motor vehicle. In addition, Cooper and Brittany Covington are charged with residential burglary.
They allegedly tortured the 18-year-old victim for about six hours in an apartment where the Covington sisters live on the West Side, police said. The defendants are accused of putting videos of the torture on Facebook. They’re seen forcing the victim to drink toilet water, cutting the victim with a knife, and forcing him to say “I love black people,” authorities say. Someone in the apartment also said, “F— Trump” and “F— white people.” _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count.

It's hardly front-page news here whenever a black guy is beaten up in the United States. What's your point? _________________ All watched over by machines of loving grace |

I think you're confusing being beaten up with unarmed black men being shot dead by police officers. _________________ All watched over by machines of loving grace |

Hardly your average "beaten up" type of assault!

Four black people face hate crime and kidnapping charges for the Facebook Live-aired torture of a mentally disabled white man.
They allegedly tortured the 18-year-old victim for about six hours in an apartment where the Covington sisters live on the West Side, police said. The defendants are accused of putting videos of the torture on Facebook.

Dear, oh dear. There are some bad black people with unacceptable and racist attitudes. Who'd have thunk it?
This sort of thing tends to become an actual story when the perpetrators aren't prosecuted or are let off too lightly. |

There's a whole lot of us soft lefties who actually think that black people should be able to kick white people to death with impunity. What is wrong with us? |
