A Jacksonville [Florida] high school student was recently beaten and battered at school by three students he said he didn’t even know.
Witnesses to the attack told police Forrest High School sophomore Karl Koch Jr. was targeted because of the color of his skin.
“They started closing in, and all I remember is getting hit,” Koch said.
Koch’s wrist was shattered and six screws and a plate now hold it together. He also has nine stitches above his right eye.
Two 15-year-old students and one 17-year-old student were taken into police custody and charged with aggravated battery in connection to the attack.

According to the police report, one of the suspects said, “Look at the white boy, he looks like a victim,” before punching Koch in the eye.
The report states all three attackers began kicking Koch and then laughed and ran away from the scene.
“It seems like he was picked out just because was the only white boy in the crowd,” said the victim’s father, Karl Koch Sr.

A racial hate crime, and it barely makes the local news in Jacksonville, and even then they only mention race hate in passing, and seemingly dismissively.

Typical story about a white who got caught alone, surrounded by blacks, and got “beat down”.
Notice the phrase “hate crime” or the word “racism” is never uttered. It’s as though the brains of the police and witnesses just can’t connect the dots. If this had happened to a black and the whites had “laughed and ran away” the press would have declared a national day of morning and demanded the maximum penality for the accused. I doubt this will get even local coverage.

“A school district official said the three students arrested could be expelled, but said the school board would decide on a punishment.”
The school board will decide on a punishment?
I mean is felonious assault no longer a crime if it is black on white?
And I didn’t read a word about hate crime charges, nor was anything mentioned about anybody condemning the attack as a racial one that was completely uncalled for.
Absolutely disgusting.

No mention of “hate crime” charges. That would be asking too much, wouldn’t it?
Does anybody here know how many people watch WJXT-TV? I have a hard time believing that a T.V. station would actually announce that a white boy was beaten up by blacks because of his race.

It won’t be called a hate crime because hate crime laws were passed with one purpose in mind: putting Whites in jail and letting non-Whites go free for their crimes.

They will blame the white for getting in the way of their fists and file a law suit against the poor white kid, that’s how it works!

Blacks seem to call all white males under the age of 45 “boy”.
When was the last time a black male was called “boy” in the media?

Something like this happened to a guy I knew. He was living in Atlanta at the time. Two or three teenagers came up to him on the street, one asking how old he was. “21” or something he said. One of them said, “that’s old enough” and knocked him out.

Its called jumping and happens in every city in America. Mob attacks are modern day black lynch mobs. Write your congressman about this.

WJXT is the only local station that has even mentioned this story in passing. WJXT is also an independent station, not tied to a a national broadcast. None of the other stations, nor the newspaper has even mentioned this story. In fact, the only time I hear about my former high school, N.B. Forrest, it is usually a lefty professor trying to organize protests against the name of the school. N.B. Forrest is now majority black, and it is an “F” school now and has been for several years, I wonder if those two facts are somehow related.

You know, white men aren’t the only group to have been scapegoated by others because they were successful. This occurred in Nazi Germany as well, and increasingly the situation towards white men resembles the depictions and blame that was placed on Jews for society’s woes…
Martin Luther, who led the Protestant Reformation once said that Mankind was a like a drunken man who, after attempting to mount a horse from the right and falling off, tries it the same way from the left
Must we have another holocaust before White America puts a halt to the vicious liberal lies and attacks?
