Mob of Black Teens Assault White Disabled Army Vet

By Eowyn @DrEowyn

Obama’s sons and daughters are acting up again.

Ed Gallek reports for 19actionnews that Matthew Robinson, a disabled Army vet, said on the night of Feb. 7, 2014,  while he was riding a bus in Cleveland, Ohio, 6 to 8 “teenagers” surrounded, attacked and robbed him, shouting, “Knock that white boy out!.”

Not only did the mob taunt Robinson with racial slurs of “white boy” and “cracker,” the thugs even videotaped what they were doing to the veteran.

The mob scattered when cops showed up. But Cleveland police did manage to apprehend three of the suspects running from the scene: two males, ages 18 and 19, and a 16 year-old-girl who had the video on her phone.

Violent teens and even mobs have been a problem around Cleveland downtown’s Public Square recently. Last month a (black) teen was brutally beaten on the square. At times, a massive police presence was needed to take back the square.

Robinson wants his story to be a warning to everyone living, or venturing downtown: ”Your mother or sister could be on the bus, and the same thing could happen to them.”

Here’s 19actionnews’ video:

As you’ve read in news report above and seen in the news video, no mention was made by 19actionnews reporter Ed Gallek of the racial identity of the perps.

But the plain fact is that they are black, as you can see in this screen shot I took from the news video, of one of the suspects being led to the police car.

Will Cleveland police label this assault a “hate crime”?

I’m not holding my breath . . . .
