Wisconsin State Fair Same As Iowa State Fair, No Hate Crime Charges Posted: 12 Aug 2011 03:47 PM PDT At the Wisconsin State Fair on August 4th, hundreds of black people attacked white people once again. The alleged attacks are part of a string of "flash mob"-generated violence around the country — including cities like Philadelphia and Chicago — in which packs of dozens or even hundreds of youths appear seemingly out of nowhere to commit assaults, robberies and other crimes against innocent white bystanders. At the Iowa State Fair in 2010 scores of black people attacked white people while chanting "Beat Whitey!" The Des Moines law enforcement declined to classify the attacks as hate crimes. On July 4th, a mob of black youths attacked, beat, kicked, robbed and stomped on a group of whites watching fireworks in Milwaukee (Source). One black youth claimed, "Oh, white girl bleeds a lot," after assaulting Shania Perry. Several victims claim the local police downplayed the violence the night of the attacks. During the 4th of July fireworks display in Peoria, Illinois a mob of black people began screaming "Kill Whitey" and disrupted traffic by pulling people out of cars and not letting people drive by blocking the highway.The attackers also took fireworks and pointed them at police and firefighters-helping those who were attacked. Many of them, were burned and injured. The mob left black people alone and beat up as many white people they could find. According to eye-witness, the attack was racially motivated, however many local news papers refuse to acknowledge race. On opening night of the fair last week, 31 people were arrested and at least 11 people were hurt. According to WCOQ, the West Allis police indicated that race did play a role (WCOQ Source), stating:
On Wednesday, August 10, the West Allis police department now state that "… none of these incidents possessed elements that would prompt their prosecution as hate crimes." What? It's déjà vu all over again! In a report (via WLS-890 Am RADIO) a black Wisconsin teen admitted to targeting white people:
But "none" of the attacks "possessed elements" that would prompt hate crime prosecution:
That seems to contradict an AP report. It also seems to contradict the Justice Department's definition of a hate crime:
