Follow the link on the CNN page before jumping to conclusions about the motives.

Watch the video here, the woman who found the old man managed to take a picture of the woman who started it.

Oh it was a black woman so it couldn't have possibly been racially motivated, even though she told him to go back to Mexico and then proceeded to batter him with a concrete block for no reason. Gottit.

There's definitely an over exaggeration, maybe she hit him 2 or 3 times. But if it happened many times with that piece of concrete he would be dead and his brains on the floor.

Seems like CNN pulled to "go back to Mexico" angle out of their ass willfully misrepresenting it.

So black people can be racist now?

Besides, it was the Assimilator making the heavy implications it was a Trump supporter.

How do you know she's not a Trump supporter? If the report about her being racist towards Mexicans is true, she certainly fits the profile of trump supporters...

FTFY.

The original report on the abc7 site mentioned nothing of it. It more looks like a case of common thuggery than the type of bigotry that you lot jerk off to.

Or things like this?


Protestors wrote in chalk on the ground “We love our neighbors” and “Oakland PD is a disgrace,” as the agents and police officers busted up the child prostitution ring.

The GOP Kabuki theatre is amusing, where the senators pretend that they'll totally be "deliberating and considering" Kavanaugh as a candidate. As if they're not going to just rubber stamp him regardless.

Well that would be the job of the other senators in the room wouldn't it. That is what the article I posted was hinting at.

It's The Federalist, so I know I shouldn't be surprised, but even after a year it gets basic facts wrong.

https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2017/08/16/homeland-security-search-warrant-served-in-west-oakland/

Oakland police released a statement around 11:40 a.m., saying the warrant was in connection with human trafficking of children in the city. An earlier report that it involved sex trafficking was incorrect, officials said.

It seems they're claiming the mother trafficked her children.

Also...

Neighbor Hadar Cohen woke up to her roommate crying, saying she didn’t know what to do. The two of them and other housemates went outside to find agents on their street. Cohen said that agents weren’t telling the neighbors what was going on.

“The narrative they kept telling us is, ‘Don’t worry. You’re safe. We can’t release any information. This doesn’t affect you,’” said Hadar Cohen

So they weren't telling them what was going on, yet somehow Federalist twists that into them protesting the breaking up of a child sex ring. :eyeroll:

Always good when SCOTUS nominees immediately tell risible lies.

"Brett Kavanaugh: "No president has ever consulted more widely or talked to more people from more backgrounds to seek input for a Supreme Court nomination. I have witnessed firsthand your appreciation for the vital role of the American judiciary.""

You're the only one lying here. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
