What a bunch of Ghetto Scum.

FOOTBALL STARS ACCUSED IN RACIAL KNOCKOUT GAME

Rules are: Find white guy, punch him in the face

By COLIN FLAHERTY, WND


NBC Sports had it half right: When he is on the football field, Lafayette Pitts is one of the most dangerous men in America.

Off the field, he is accused of being even more menacing. Pitts and two teammates from the University of Pittsburgh football team stand accused of playing the Knockout Game.

The Knockout Game is just one form of the black mob violence and lawlessness documented in more than 80 cities with more than 400 examples in the book “White Girl Bleed a Lot: The return of racial violence and how the media ignore it.”

Rules of the Knockout Game are pretty simple: Find a white guy. Make sure he looks defenseless. Punch him in the face. If he doesn’t get up, you win. And that is what three witnesses said the Pitt players did just a few weeks ago.

Last Friday, it was revealed they were charged with assault and conspiracy. Their court date is set for January. But that did not stop them from suiting up the next day for a big game against Notre Dame.

During the match, NBC Sports mentioned the crimes only once, albeit briefly. They called it a “confrontation.”

To Karl Olsheski, it seemed more like an assault. Olsheski and two women were walking near the Pitt campus when a mob of black people crossed the street to block their way.

It was a Saturday night, early Sunday morning really, and the Pitt Panthers had just returned to Pittsburgh after a 20-6 victory over the Buffalo Bulls.

Star running back Ray Graham allegedly made the first move. He stepped in front of Olsheski and asked “Wassup?” Graham did not know Olsheski, but Olsheski knew him. Lots of people do: He’s a big man at Pitt. The fourth most prolific running back in Pitt history.

If he is guilty he should be barred from college and pro football forever. That is what they would do to a white guy! FAIR IS FAIR! Figures this big brave strong BLACK MAN has to have something to empower himself. He is lucky he ain't pulling that crap here. Most fools here would Roscoe up and pop a cap or twenty in homeboy JUST because he is a famous punk *** (racially motivated expletive word inserted here!) MF who wants to be a thug.

So this is the positive example these "Gentlemen" are presenting to the youth of America... they come from the ghetto and make something of themselves only to be ghetto in success. There is a derogatory saying that comes to mind and it was coined by black men. You can take a... well, the word ghetto comes up twice in this saying.

I feel hate Crime charges DO apply here. Time for a racist to get a wake-up call! Fair is fair here!

I agree, racially motivated crimes should be treated equitably.

ITs because so many others do achieve success without such behavior, that such behavior should continue to be pointed out and dealt with.

it should never be able to become more than the exception,,,

Once the burden of proof is established, motive becomes fairly irrelevant in terms of prosecution.

That's my opinion.

depending upon the facts, that may be true

whether it was random or racial may or may not affect the outcome

right. racism is not an entitlement program

it is ugly and ignorant regardless who it comes from

all are equally capable of racism but it is ironic here as black leadership fought so hard to free our nation of racism

but I did edit to add that we really so need to wait to hear the complete story - as it was told here it does sound like racially motivated bullying

college and professional football are not respectable activities at this current time and won't be as long as thugdom is condoned in the system by the system..

it is disgusting - no one with any type of felony or record of financial impropriety, drugs, weapons or violence should be employable as a professional athlete any where

I dont necessarily believe in exclusion for life because of peoples mistakes,, criminal or not

if they can do the job, that is what should matter most

however, I do believe a crime like this warrants the LOSS of a job,,,,,

In this case, there is no job for the villain to lose.
Thus, he needs to spend time behind bars.

a criminal offense committed against a person, property or society which is motivated, in whole or in part, by the offender's bias against a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or ethnicity/national origin." 2
http://www.religioustolerance.org/hom_hat3.htm



A hate crime is not a distinct federal offense. However, the federal government can and does investigate and prosecute crimes of bias as civil rights violations, which do fall under its jurisdiction. These efforts serve as a backstop for state and local authorities, which handle the vast majority of hate crime cases. A 1994 federal law also increased penalties for offenses proven to be hate crimes.

I think it might need more investigation to define it as a hate crime, as it could also be a random interracial assault that wasnt motivated by race(it happens)

This is a hate crime. They went out looking for someone of a certain race to attack. It doesn't get anymore cut and dry then that.

exactly - if their job is pro sports - they're out

I am not sure I do agree that they should be allowed to play again....I am not talking about small stuff like bouncing a check or getting drunk and punching the bouncer.....I'm talkin' weapons - assault (both on and off the field) - drugs, sports and non sports related(and when I said financial impropriety I meant drug related - like money laundering, dealing), or taking "pay" as a college athlete.

thugs do not belong in the pros - period - not any time for any reason

Defined in the 1999 National Crime Victim Survey, "A hate crime is a criminal offense. In the United States, federal prosecution is possible for hate crimes committed on the basis of a person's race, religion, or nation origin when engaging in a federally protected activity." In 2009, the Matthew Shepard Act added actual or perceived gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, and disability to the federal definition, and dropped the prerequisite that the victim be engaging in a federally-protected activity.
