I hear the argument that domestic problems are just as severe as Islamic radicals, yet nobody is talking about the latest major nightclub shooting in Florida. 2 dead and 14 wounded after a bunch of parents thought it was a good idea to let their minor children go out "clubbing".

Picking an easy target doesn't negate the possibility that the attack was motivated by the ethnic background of the victim.
Both things could have been instrumental in the motivation.
We can only speculate.

Exactly.

Did you watch that video Barbara? There was about 5 of them. They didn't need to beat the hell out of the guy to get the cash. They wanted to hurt him, not just rob him. They continued beating him well after they had the money.

That's just the way "those people" are, Was. Has it occurred to you that you're doing the same thing you criticized whell for yesterday?

Did you read my response?
Both motivators, easy target and ethnic background, could have been the motivation.
We can only speculate.

I disagree. My criticism of Whell was that he jumped to the conclusion that they beat this guy simply because he was an easy target. Implying they beat him for the fun of it. That's not at all what I'm saying.
I'm saying I don't think robbery was the only motivating factor, since simple robbery didn't require beating the guy to a pulp. I think they were motivated either by xenophobia or some other perceived injustice.

Dunno what happened or why here, I still want accountability for the North Alabama LEO jerkoff that threw a visiting Foreigner to the sidewalk and permenently disabled him. He got away with it.

Got the vid to download, looks like mindless agressive street gang stuff that shames the community.
Hopefully, the perp will be brought to accountability by those unafraid to make their community safe, if they can.
Meanwhile, the driver deserves a GFM assist.
