    I don't know what you call this new Law and Justice

    headline says fight in brooklyn...that's no fight. that was an assault. Black guy beats a cyclist with a bat. you can hear him tell onlookers that he warned him. I can't distinguish race of the victim. That might account for the slow response of onlookers. I don't know. Even the police seem to have taken their sweet time. Guy gets in a number of hits and then two more while one onlooker stands there. My problem is with the audience. Seriously. You're gonna handle the attacker with kid gloves while the man could be dying?? What's happened in this country.

    Some people figure they are so important that they have to post things like this on Tweeker.
    They wont help, but they sure as hell record this.
    They need bat control legislation...............

    POlice 20 years ago might have arrested some of these folk as accessories for doing nothing? Now...there are so many of them that the police don't bother. Except if it is a trump crowd...then they'll arrest onlookers.

    Kamala will bail him out.


    But it appears that the guy was waiting for this cyclist based on how he was addressing him, as he beat him.
