70 people involved in brawl at Gallery Pl metro stop

From my experiences the kids aren't racist. They pick on anyone of any age or color that they perceive as weaker.
I've seen them go after elderly black women on numerous occasions.
If you're of the stature to mentally and physically take of yourself.
Getting in their faces and calling them on their bullshit gets them to back off.

Metro and DC need to start addressing this problem. It's not that difficult to figure out.
Lazy approach… Metro rail curfew for kids and some enforcement
Logical approach… Give them better access to after school and community center programs

Of course, the city will cry about not having the money and will slowly drive residents and the economy back out to the suburbs.

Hmm.  How do we know it was unprovoked, other than that's what the TV reporter is telling us?  You can't tell from the video what happened.  It was girls attacking him?  Maybe he copped a feel?

Uh oh, we got reports of another fight:

"that bitch took off with my ride!!"

Here's some NSFW foxy boxing.

Actually, here is a much more poignant take on the above video (still NSFW)

that was pure genius.

For some reason I don't think a 47 year old guy who works at a flower shop and works out at Results was copping a feel on teenage girls.

Regardless of that, I don't understand why he wasn't fighting back.

I can say that if i were a bystander, I would have run to get help, or called 911 on a cell, but wouldn't not have jumped into the fray myself. Some kids carry weapons; I don't. Some kids (even girls) know how to fight; I don't.

if this would have been a black couple, especially a black marine back from the war, attacked by a group of white kids . . . it would have been on the cover of every newspaper in the u.s.  sharpton and jackson would be marching in the town.  the attackers would be charged on hate crimes and spend the next 30 years in jail.  but since it is the other way around, just another day in the neighbor(hood).  white people are so afraid of black people and offending them . . . it is almost amusing at this point.

oh really?  you think stories of whites attacking blacks in racially-motivated crimes get blown up on front pages of newpapers?

not on the cover of every newspaper in the u.s.

not on the cover of every newspaper in the u.s.

not on the cover of every newspaper in the u.s.

not on the cover of every newspaper in the u.s.

not on the cover of every newspaper in the u.s.

etc… there is plenty of hate for everyone.  these whites-attack-blacks stories are as buried as the blacks-attack-whites.  so please take your delusional, small-minded "whites are the oppressed minority in america" crap to right-wing AM radio where it belongs :)

p.s. your "marine attacked by black kids" video is a story from Tabloid Prodigy.  quality source ya got there!

ok . . . i'll stop.  i know all this bashing is bad karma and i hate bad karma.  a lot of people hate a lot of people.  i should know being gay.  nothing comes out of it.  and us fighting at each other is more bad karma.  i'll go listen to karma police and shut up now.  kiss kiss, hug hug.

i hear ya walkonby, i've had enough of the bad karma too.  truce/shake/kiss-n-grope/etc.

this is what you get, when you mess with uuuuuusssssssssssss.  for a minute there…

I actually listened to OK Computer a few weeks ago for the first time since probably 2007. I still get chills from the transition from Let Down to Karma Police. Epic shit.

It's the transition from Exit Music to Let Down that does it for me.

radiohead . . . bringing us all together.

Did you actually watch the video?  He was fighting back.    I think he actually made the situation worse.

I suppose if pointing and yelling "Why are you doing this, I did nothing to you." is considered fighting back, well yes, I guess he was fighting back. Shame on him for making the situation worse.

Exit Music–>Let Down–>Karma Police, then. Anybody heard this on vinyl? I have to imagine Karma Police begins side b. EDIT: Looks like Karma Police ends side a. Just as well.
