I can’t say for sure if this was a racially motivated attack because the news has little interest in presenting facts that go against the “white supremacy is our nation’s biggest problem” narrative. Maybe all of the attackers were black. Perhaps the victims were white. The news won’t say, but at least one of the scumbags who beat up a child and his elderly parents was black. I’m almost certain that most of the attackers were not white and the victims black, because that would be something the news would report.
18-year-old Gregory Battle (pictured) and 8 of his homies were at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, IL, a suburb of Chicago, last Saturday for the park’s annual “Fright Fest.” They got it in their mind that they had special privileges and didn’t need to wait in lines like the rest of the park guests. CBS Chicago reports that the gang of 9 cut the line in front of a 50-year-old woman, her 51-year-old husband and their 12-year-old son.
The 9 assholes were acting rowdy and using obscenities. The 50-year-old woman politely asked them to watch their language. One of the thugs responded by sucker-punching the 12-year-old boy. The mother and father came to the aid of their son and the gang began beating the entire family. Yeah, 9 scumbags between the ages of 15 and 18 were attacking two people in their 50’s and a young boy.
Witnesses say that the mob beat the family to the ground and then stomped and kicked them when they were down. The mother, father, and son were all hospitalized with what are being called “significant injuries.”
“This family is lucky they got out with just the injuries that they did,” said Gurnee Deputy Police Chief of Operations Brian Smith.
Define “lucky.”
Park security eventually broke up the one-sided fight and the police were called. Gregory Battle and 8 minors were arrested and charged with offenses ranging from mob action to aggravated battery causing great bodily harm. The names of the other attackers were not released because of their ages.
I did some research and read about this story on several different sites, but none of them mention what the race of the other attackers or the victims are. Were all of the attackers black? Are the victims white? I think it’s a given that these things are true simply by the media silence. They don’t want to go around promoting stories about mobs of black thugs beating the shit out of white people because they are fully invested in America being a place that is intolerably racist against black people.
Had this been a bunch of white teenagers beating up a black family, that would be big news with national interest and a ton of outrage to go with it. Had the family been Muslim, it would be even worse. We live in a country where a white guy running over a white woman proves that white supremacy is an epidemic, but a mobs of blacks beating the hell out of white people never enters the conversation on race.
