The White Kids Now Get Beat Up With The Black Kids Cheering"





Rush said: "We need segregated buses. This is Obama's America."

I think it is becoming clear that the blacks are more racist than the whites......I think it is about time for the state run fringe media to start telling the truth about racism in America in 'THESE times!'

Rush got things started today with the latest Drudge special, a story of an assault on an Illinois school bus, with Drudge's headline highlighting the potentially racial element of the event: "WHITE STUDENT BEATEN ON SCHOOL BUS; CROWD CHEERS." Rush ran with it, saying, "it's Obama's America, is it not? Obama's America -- white kids getting beat up on school buses now."

Rush continued, saying we know it's racist because Newsweek's cover story this week was about studies showing people are born racist. Rush continued to hit on the racist theme:

LIMBAUGH: We know that white students are destroying civility on buses, white students destroying civility in classrooms all over America, white congressmen destroying civility in the House of Representatives.
[...]
I mean, I wonder if Obama's going to come to the defense of the assailants the way he did his friend Skip Gates up there at Harvard. I mean, the assailants are presumed innocent due to the white racism we all know runs rampant in America. I mean, the drive-by media is ginning up all this criticism of Obama again today -- it's all based in racism, the criticism of Obama's health care plan or whatever. It's all based in racism.

Rush then decided that if Obama was going to apologize for America all over the world, he might as well apologize for the "right reasons":

LIMBAUGH: White Americans are racists who have created what they call free markets that really just enslave the rest of America and her trading partners. I mean, it was white Americans that ran off Van Jones. No, look, let's just follow Eric Holder's advice and not be cowards about all this. Let's have an open conversation, an honest conversation about all of our typical white grandmothers. You had one, I had one. Obama had one. They're racists just like our students are. ACORN -- hey, nothing but racism fueling the pursuit of ACORN.

Rush went back to the bus-assault story, and said it can't possibly be a hate crime -- the cops are probably lying because they're "racist pigs" and the white kid "deserved it."

Then Rush looked at a couple of polls on Obama's health care plans which Rush argued showed that Obama's speech last week failed. Rush then read a post on ABC's The Note about the bill being "squeezed" by partisanship. Rush was annoyed that ABC wasn't considering the idea that the bill is a "piece of crap" that nobody needs.

Then Rush went back to today's theme of straw man accusations of racism by looking at the latest Kanye West controversy. Rush said there is racism going on in the demeaning of Kanye over what he did at the MTV Video Music Awards -- he was standing up for racial unity because his "sister" Beyonce didn't get the award. Rush said that Kanye is entitled to be egotistical and stupid, "just like" Obama.

This brought Rush back to his main theme of the monologue, that the media is labeling any criticism of Obama as racist. To make his point, he aired an audio montage of various media figures saying that there is a "small minority" of the tea party protesters who appear to be racist in their opposition to Obama. Rush went on to suggest that Obama should replace Paula Abdul as a judge on American Idol, since "nobody wants" Ellen DeGeneres. With the suggestion from his producer, Rush threw Serena Williams into the mix. Rush said she got "screwed" by a line judge who was a racist.

Rush went on to compare audio bites of Kanye on last night's Leno to when he said George Bush doesn't like black people. Rush suggested that Obama was "probably just jealous" of Kanye's communication skills when Obama called him a "jackass."

After the break, Rush noted that Oprah's falling television ratings must be due to racism as well. He then read a Politico op-ed by "liberal" Jeremy Lott headlined, "So far, Obama's failing miserably." Rush was particularly gleeful about the headline, and the idea that the "liberal" Lott was calling Obama a failure. Rush said:

LIMBAUGH: This is exactly what I had hoped for, but I'm not ready to proclaim him a failure yet. The libs are upset because he is failing. He is failing at fundamentally altering America in their view. This is why I wanted him to fail from the get-go, and I still do. And now the libs are starting to write about how, so far, he's failing miserable because he's not delivering on what they thought he was going to provide.

After another break, Rush continued to read from the Lott piece, and then moved on to a story about tourists canceling their trips to South Carolina because of Joe Wilson. Rush contrasted this story with an American Thinker post about a Boeing factory in South Carolina voting to get rid of their union. Rush suggested going to South Carolina to "celebrate" this.
Rush: "We need segregated buses. This is Obama's America"

Then Rush took a caller who said the local police investigating the bus assault said today the attack was not racially motivated. Rush responded to these developments put out by the local law enforcement:LIMBAUGH: I think the guy's wrong. I think not only it was racism, it was justifiable racism. I mean, that's the lesson we're being taught here today. Kid shouldn't have been on the bus anyway. We need segregated buses -- it was invading space and stuff. This is Obama's America.

A student on a Belleville West High School bus was beaten for his choice of seat, not because he was white, according to a witness and police.

"The incident appears now to be more about a couple of bullies on a bus dictating where people sit," said Belleville Police Capt. Don Sax, who originally said Monday's attack may have been racially motivated.

D'Vante Lott, 16, said he was on the bus and witnessed the attack by the two black students.

The victim walked onto the bus, looking for an open seat, but students kept turning him down, as D'Vante said happened often with this student.

But Monday, the victim apparently tired of asking for a seat, D'Vante said, moved one student's book-bag off a seat, and just sat down.

The student next to him then started hitting the victim for moving his bag, D'Vante said.

But the second assailant was just trying to act tough, D'Vante said. "The second guy hit him because he wanted to hit him," he said.

D'Vante didn't think the attacks were racially motivated.

"Nobody even knows the kid," D'Vante said. "He's a quiet dude."

"They usually let him sit down," he continued.

Meanwhile, D'Vante said, the bus driver did little. "He kept driving. All he said was 'Sit Down.'"

Later, D'Vante said, the victim tried to take a picture of his face with a phone, but he couldn't get a good picture, so he asked someone else to do it for him.

The school suspended the two attackers for 10 days today, pending an expulsion hearing, and suspended three bystanders, including D'Vante, for five days for laughing at the incident, D'Vante and his mother said the principal told them.

D'Vante's mother, Shenico Greer, was very upset outside Belleville West this afternoon, as she picked up her son.

"He was not in the fight!" Greer said.

"Everybody on that bus, mostly, was laughing and standing up," she said.

She said her son even helped the victim after the attacks, picking up his glasses and asking him if he was OK.

Greer also didn't think the attack was racially motivated.

"There are other white children who sit with black children," she said.

Meanwhile, school and police officials met Tuesday afternoon. Police spokesman Sax said he did not know what came of the meeting.

Police had not this afternoon presented charges for prosecution to the state's attorney's office, Sax said.

Still, several white parents and students said Tuesday afternoon that they felt the incident had to have been racially motivated, and that the school has been struggling with racial tension.


UPDATED, 11:35 a.m. with police captain backtracking on whether attack was racially motivated.

BELLEVILLE -- A Belleville police spokesman now says an incident where a white student was beaten by teen black assailants on a bus “may not be racially motivated.”

“It was premature on my part,” said Belleville Police Capt. Don Sax. “It was my personal and emotional comment after only seeing the video briefly.”

Sax said police interviewed the 17-year-old Belleville West High student. However, he said he was unaware of what the student told police.

Some of the students on the bus yesterday during the incident cheered the beating, the video shows.

Sax said a formal statement would be made available later today.

“After having reviewed the video, it doesn't strike me nearly as racially motivated,” Sax said.

The about-face came this morning as the story made national headlines. Although, Sax said it was purely his review of the video that changed his mind.

Belleville has had a long history of racial turmoil, with a past that includes police harassment of black motorists, cross burnings and discrimination in city hiring.


EARLIER STORY

BELLEVILLE — A Belleville West High School student was beaten aboard a bus on the way to school Monday, and a police spokesman said the beating could be racially motivated.

The 17-year-old victim was white and the teen assailants were black. Police released a video of the beating, which shows the victim being punched repeatedly while other students on the bus gather to watch, some cheering. It doesn't appear that the victim did anything to provoke an attack and tried only to defend himself. Police said it all unfolded in a five-minute span.

The victim was trying to find a seat and was told by two students he could not sit next to them, police said.

As he walked to the seat, someone shouted, "Beat his ass."

When he did sit down, one teen tried to push him out of his seat then began grabbing the victim’s neck and punching him in the face.

With each punch, some in the crowd chanted, "Boom, boom, boom."

The victim eventually returned to his seat, but another student began taunting him a few minutes later. The victim was then struck in the face.

It was unclear what, if anything, the bus driver did to stop the attack. At one point, before the second attack, a man shouts, "Sit down guys."

Students intervened to help the victim both times.

"In my estimation, it's racially motivated," said Capt. Don Sax of the Belleville Police Department. He said one reason he had formed this opinion was that many of the students, most of whom were black, yelled their support for the beating.

"There was absolutely no justification for the beating either time," Sax said.

Two teens were taken into custody; authorities will apply for charges today. Both students have been suspended, said Superintendent Greg Moats.

He also said there had been no racial problems at the school and said that he wanted to talk further with police to determine why they believe race could have been a motivator in the fight. He also said the school will do everything possible to make sure students are safe, but he wouldn't elaborate.

Racial terror in Denver that won’t make national news

By Michelle Malkin • November 24, 2009 10:31 AM



Chilling details are emerging in the local Colorado press about violent black gangs who have been targeting white victims for months:

The Denver Police Department announced today that they have made 32 arrests during a sweep to end a four-month spree of what police said were racially motivated assaults and robberies in downtown Denver, including the LoDo entertainment district.

A task force comprised of the Denver Police, FBI and the Denver District Attorney’s Office investigated 26 incidents in which groups of black males verbally harassed and then assaulted white or Hispanic males, according to Denver Police Chief Gerry Whitman.

Many of the victims were robbed after being assaulted.

Although police knew what was going on, citizens were left in the dark.

My beautiful bride and I (she shoots better than I do) just went to Greely, our county seat, and picked up our concealed handgun permits. After some regular training at the range, we'll carry a semi-auto or two and at least not be members of the young progressive sheeple masses roaming the streets of downtown Denver. These young professionals are so clueless when it comes to their own safety. They truly think they are immune to this type of assault.
