Facebook video shows torture of disabled man by group

[Hand]

The shaky video shows a terrified young man in a gray hooded sweatshirt and dark pants crouching in a corner, his wrists and neck bound with orange bands, his mouth taped shut.

A young woman films as two young men slash the sleeves of his shirt with knives, then take turns punching him, slapping him and stomping on his head. At one point, one of the men can be seen cutting the victim’s hair and scalp with a knife, and the victim is later shown bleeding from his injuries.

As the victim cowers with his back to the wall, someone can be heard repeatedly shouting, “F‑‑‑ Donald Trump” and “F‑‑‑ white people.”

Throughout the 28-minute video — which focuses mostly on the young woman behind the camera — the group laughs, jokes and listens to music as the victim sits motionless on the floor. About halfway through, someone says the man “represents Trump,” and threatens to put him in the trunk of a car and “put a brick on the gas.”

It’s unclear what happens to the victim when the video cuts off.

...

Police declined to give the race of the attackers or the victim. In the video, the attackers appear black. The victim appears to be white.

So where the fuck is all the outcry over THIS!?

Nothing to see here

The police and the MSM have decided it was just some yutes blowing off steam.

On January 20th the FBI and Justice Department needs to be sent in to investigate this obvious hate crime.

Fucking Chicago needs to burn to the ground along with 90% of its residents. Yeah, I said something hateful!

The kind of idiotic shenanigans that gave birth to Aryan nation.

The same shenanigan at Charleston church to incite race war.

I sincerely hope Americans as a whole show the world how to respond to bottom-feeding idiots like these, and not fall to availability/confirmation bias

CNN host Don Lemon said Wednesday evening the broadcasted torture of a bound and gagged victim in Chicago was not “evil,” adding that the suspects had “bad home training.”
News broke nationally Wednesday after a Facebook Live video showed the victim beaten, slashed, held at knifepoint, and more in a Chicago apartment while assailants are heard saying “fuck white people” and “fuck Trump.” Chicago police held a press conference the same day to announce an investigation is underway and four adults are in police custody. The suspects held the “traumatized” victim for as many as 48 hours, police said.

“The fact that this was a vulnerable person that was probably duped into going along with them. It appears it is someone who is mentally disabled, I think makes it even more sickening,” said guest Matt Lewis. “But at the end of the day, you just try to wrap your head around evil. That’s what this is, it’s evil. It’s brutality. It’s man’s inhumanity to man.”

“I don’t think it’s evil,” Lemon replied. “I don’t think it’s evil. I think these are young people and I think they have bad home training. I say, who is raising these young people? I have no idea who’s raising these young people. Because no one I know on Earth who is 17 years old or 70 years old would ever think of treating another person like that. It is inhumane. And you wonder, at 18 years old, where is your parent? Where’s your guardian?”

During the same discussion, Democrat strategist and former press secretary for Bernie Sanders Symone Sanders said the attack was “not a hate crime” if the suspects were motivated by “hate of Donald Trump.”

Were that to happen I do not think it would take long for Chicago or any lefty city for that matter to fall.

The police did their part and charged them with hate crimes, but sorry to say Kimeisha Fox Cook county states attorney, makes Baltimore's Marylin Molsby look like Perry Mason by comparison. I could go on about the Cook county judges, but the first hurdle is quite enough for now.

Let's see if the media follows the case that doesn't fit the narrative.

I wouldn't recommend holding your breath while waiting.

I have no idea how to say this gently, but having blm marches/protest/riots locations surrounded by Hells Angels lining the sidewalks would quell all the bullshit very quickly. They could exercise their freedom of speech and no one would have to worry about looting.

Some notable quotes from various sources:

Priscilla Covington, the grandmother to Brittany Covington couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the video.

"I'm so upset, my head is about to bust open," the grandmother said. "I don't know if someone influenced her...She had her ups and downs. (She) was a good person. I'm so confused."

"I can't understand why anybody put anything on Facebook," Near North Area Commander Kevin Duffin said when asked about the video at an afternoon news conference at Chicago police headquarters.

President Barack Obama called the news from his hometown "despicable" and said the Internet has exposed long simmering racial tensions.

"What we have seen as surfacing, I think, are a lot of problems that have been there a long time," Obama told a Chicago-area television station in a prearranged interview in Washington. "Whether it's tensions between police and communities, (or) hate crimes of the despicable sort that has just now recently surfaced on Facebook."

"If this had been done to an African-American by four whites, every liberal in the country would be outraged, and there'd be no question but that it's a hate crime," former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Thursday on Fox News.
