We have reports from people who experienced it, of the black mob moving from car to car, looking into windshiels first: If the people in the car were black, they moved on; if the people in the car were white, they were attacked. Yet the most the media will do is say "some claim racially motivated." And the police are "investigating."
I think it would help if we had fair and EVENHANDED news coverage in the country, but we do not. Whenever I hear a tale where race is at all involved, I mentally flip it: Imagine the response if this had been a white mob attacking black people leaving the fair.
If white people formed an organization called "The Race" (that's "La Raza" in Spanish) and had the motto "For the Race, everything, for those outside the Race, nothing," can you imagine the outcry? Yet when Hispanics do this it is encouraged by many.
Spike Lee tells us "only whites can be racists." Yeah, sure.... Just as good guys and assholes come in all colors, so do racists.
Everyone needs to stop obsessing over race and just concentrate on the fact we're all Americans (exept 15 million illegals who need to be deported), we all bleed red and we're all in this together.
"Hate crime" laws are BS, they require a jury to read the mind of the accused to determine motivation. We should just concentrate on the crime.
In a way, these mob attacks are a good warning -- if they get adequate news coverage. We all need to think about survival in a mob attack situation. "What would you do in this situation?" was asked early in the thread. Well, a car is a pretty good weapon of you realize it doesn't matter how many you kill and maim so long as you and yours survive. People need to realize these mobs are deadly; and all-out, no mercy, total response is the only way to survive. In the Rodney riots, Reginald Denny was pulled from his truck and beaten until he was pretty much brain dead, because he stupidly stopped instead of using his 80,000 lb. weapon to survive.
Avoid population centers. But if you must visit a population center, be aware this kind of stuff will be happening more and more. At home, I walk around with a 1911 in my waistband and I'm fine. If I have to visit a city, I start stuffing extra magazines into my cargo pants, my wife carries extra speed loaders.
This is the world we live in, and it's going to get a lot worse.
