Cincinnati Police Chief calling for hate crime charges in vicious mob beating of white man

[TemplarKormac]

In a sudden reversal, the Cincinnati Police Chief is asking for hate crimes charges to be filed against a mob of black individuals who beat 27 year old Christopher McKnight, a white man, giving him a broken nose and concussion in the Government Square area of Hamilton County, Ohio. The Cincinnati police originally did not consider the incident as hate related, after Captain Mike Nevielle called the description by one of the officers on scene of the incident as "anti-white."

Cincinnati Police Chief Jeffrey Blackwell has reconsidered and is asking Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters to pursue hate crime charges in the Government Square attack that left a white man beaten and bloody on the Fourth of July.

Police Officer Alicia Essert called the beating "anti-white" in the incident report, but at a news conference about the incident, Cincinnati Police Capt. Mike Neville backed off that claim, calling it a "mistake."

"In many cases, a hate/bias relationship between the offender(s) and suspect(s) may not be easily apparent at the time of, or even shortly after the commission of the offense," police spokeswoman Tiffaney Hardy said in a release. "Often, hate/bias elements become evident only after thorough investigation and review of the available evidence."

Christopher McKnight, 27, of Albany, Indiana, suffered a broken nose and concussion in the beating. He was released from the hospital Sunday night.

He probably came out of the show with one of its songs in his head and as he sang it to himself out loud, the mob heard him repeatedly singing the word ni@@er as that word is used incessantly in that tripe and it became a response beating. The white victim will be charged with a hate crime for using that word.

If it were 40 Whites beating a Black the cable news Marxist would blow up.

If it was racially motivated, then by all means it should be considered a hate crime.

I'm trying so hard not to bitch about past screw ups where PC ruled and no one wanted to talk about black on white racist violence.

So I'll hush on that.

I'll just say kudos to this Cincinnati Police Chief for not jumping the gun and despite what underlings have said came out with a reasoned statement that confirmed what the officer on the scene noted.

Bravo for calling it like it is.
