When will America stop tolerating the savage behavior of blacks?
You fucking white people are cowards. You'd stand there and
watch the niggers rape your own mother and not do a thing.

A man has died after being knocked to the ground with a single
punch by a stranger in a New York City square.
Jeffrey Babbitt, 62, had been left brain damaged after being
punched in Union Square last week in an apparent racist attack.
Mr Babbitt died after allegedly being hit by Lashawn Marten, a
31-year-old African American, who reportedly said that he wanted
to attack the next white person who walked by.
The 62-year-old, the sole carer of his 92-year-old mother Hedda,
was hit so hard that he fell to the ground but later managed to
stand. His condition deteriorated soon afterwards and he died at
Bellevue Hospital.
His mother Mrs Babbitt, who the retired train conductor shared a
Brooklyn apartment with, had been at his hospital's bedside
since Wednesday.
Two other white men, aged 48 and 18, suffered minor injuries
after allegedly being attacked by Marten as they tried to help
Mr Babbitt who was lying on the ground.
Footage of the aftermath of the assault shows the victim on the
ground, with blood pouring from his head.
Marten, who has a previous criminal record and uses various
aliases, was charged with assault and is due in a Manhattan
court on Tuesday. It is likely his charges will now be upgraded.
According to one female witness last week, Marten said: 'The
next white person who walks by I�m going to f***'.
She added: 'His fist went in and the man�s head bobbed and he
hit the ground and you could hear his skull hitting the ground.'
Michael Benson, who also saw that attack, told ABC Local: 'The
guy got agitated for some reason or another and he said, "The
next white person that bumps into me without saying excuse me,
I'm going to knock him out".'
After his racist rant and attack, witnesses said Marten stayed
at the park and waited for police to arrive.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said Marten's alleged comments
about targeting white people before allegedly punching Mr
Babbitt could lead to hate crime charges being made against him.
'Our Hate Crimes Task Force is involved in aspects of that
case,' he added.
Marten is being held on a $1 million bond as police decide
whether to also charge him with a hate crime.

Let's see where Jesse and big fat Sharpton are. Oh right, no
money to be made on this one. If it were the reverse and a white
guy did that there would be a rally, march and lawsuit against
the city the next day!

This is what are "great society" has created. No morals or an
amoral culture. We reap what we sow, and this is the harvest,
folks. You wanted g*dlessness, well, you got it.

Just so everyone in the UK understands - this has not been
reported in the US press. I don't understand how this is
unreported, yet Trayvon Martin's death was a national crisis.
Both are reprehensible - and both should be widely condemned...

So sad. No matter the age, no parent should ever have to bury
their child.
