Lancaster is the “last stop” in LA County for this trash. They ultimately end up in:
A.) Prison
B.) Victorville or California City
C.) Las Vegas
Take your pick!
Lina says
Well this happens when they dont get raised right by their parents he is a looser for even hitting a female and worse cause she was unconscious . they should lock him up for ever we dont need this garbage in the streets.
Tim Scott says
What happened to gender equity?
Radar Kay says
What are you trying so ineffectually to say?
Stinger says
I believe attempted murder charges may be appropriate. Kicking an opponent when they are down and unconscious is the epitome of cowardice.
Tim Scott says
Well, maybe. In the heat of the moment it can be hard to tell if someone is unconscious and even if they are how long they will stay that way. In the modern world you also always have to consider guns. Before I walk away I am going to be sure that I won’t be shot in the back in the process.
But I only fight people who start fights so I don’t feel bad if they get hurt. This case is sad.
Stinger says
I don’t start fights but I do finish them… quickly and effectively. I have never found it necessary to attack an unconscious opponent lying on the ground. That is dishonorable and cowardly which, to me, is a core personality failure and far worse than mere acts of passion and fear.
America's Most Culturally Rotten says
That’s because you have honor. A commodity that gets more rare with each generation of our rotten culture.
Stinger says
Too many westerns as a kid, I guess… I don’t regret it in the least, though. Having honor in honorless environments has been more helpful than not for me. I could regale you with examples, but I’ll spare you, instead. ;-)
Tim Scott says
“Unconscious” is a range, not a clearly defined state.

“I don’t start fights but I do finish them… quickly and effectively.”
Lol,
Let me guess,
With gobs of logic, lol
Tim Scott says
Bad guess. Stinger is more in the nightstick and handcuffs set, which is why he and I differ on this subject. He can afford to stand over the subdued opposition and keep an eye on them so that if they aren’t really incapacitated and go for a gun he can deal with it. If I put someone down I have to deal with the reality that when they arrive the boys in blue won’t GAF about who or how it started so I have to walk away…and as I said, I have no interest in being shot in the back so I will make sure of the person I put down.
Stinger says
Logic is essential in combat of all kinds, including hand to hand engagement, BeeEss.
Stinger says
The point, Tim, is that the opposing force is subdued to allow me to stand over them. This is frequently easier said than done. Circumstances in combat are fluid, requiring quick alterations in methods to be applied in a given situation. I did not always have the luxury of having the requisite allotted accoutrements for the number of opponents being faced, necessitating using more blunt force than I would have liked on a few, but it was never necessary to kick anyone when they were unconscious. Ever.
Tim Scott says
The point was that you have the opportunity to stand over them. There is very little pressure on you to walk away. Others do not have that luxury, me among them.
Stinger says
Hmmm. Considering your personal circumstances, I can see why staying for local law enforcement might be disconcerting. Still, I have serious doubts that you would continue to kick an unconscious victim rather than make good your escape to safety.
Tim Scott says
I do take that “shot in the back by someone that was more conscious than I thought” prospect seriously though. I mean I’m not gonna spend time really wailing on some hunk of meat, but I’m not going to rely on “yeah they seem incapacitated at a glance.”

3:51 AM ?? Wow, you’re irrational hate starts early. I can imagine your vindictiveness at 10 PM.
You know what they say: “The early nerd is a worm”, or something like that.
Tim Scott says
I keep telling you lames…Scotch is a whiskey, not an ethnicity. Ask drunk Frank. If you are gonna be an ethnic bigot, do it right so you don’t look quite so foolish in the process.

Jummy says
When is society going to overcome the fear of stating the obvious fact that AT LEAST HALF of video violent crime in LA are black thugs going overboard and or killing. The video proof is there. From business robberies, shoving Asians over, shooting over fries, shoes, whites, whatever. There seems to be a common disregard for life, even their own. When you realize 5%(black men between 15 and 35) are committing 50% or more of LA’s violent crime there is certainly a worth while fact worth calling out. And don’t give me a f’n sob story. Poor people in Indonesia, China, and Muslim nations don’t behave so lousy as these.
Beecee says
Waaaaaaaaaa!
Welcome to the club
Radar Kay says
An opponent implies mutual combat. This was a cowardly male abusing an innocent female so he could steal her stuff!
Jamal says
So sad, minority in the overall pop creates the majority of violence, so sad.
Clyde says
I looked up the name and got pictures of a white guy… Black guys are there beating not black woman and the one chic was fighting the woman for arguing with her pimp? This is what slavery looks like in America . Woman smooth talked out of their morals then battered into staying woke.

Imagine being as much of a [removed] clown as you.

Of course they tracked him down in the AV. All the trash has made its way here.
Attack says
Anti-White racism.
Robert says
It should be a hate crime
Stinger says
Perhaps. If it can be shown that race was the motivating factor for the attack.
Stinger says
Seriously? THAT got moderated?
America's Most Like the Incubus says
You’ve been hanging with me too long and fell into the black pit of moderator hell. I’m considered like the antichrist, strigoy or the incubus around here, so I’ve corrupted you and now you’re tainted too!
Poor guy. That will teach you to watch the company you keep.
Stinger says
LOL… I remember being advised once not to worry about going to hell, ’cause I’d most likely be too busy shaking hands with all of my friends to notice much else! ;-)
