As you can see there are reasons our people believed we should simply be separate. Notice how they like even numbers? Well I guess everyone has to learn when it happens to them because they refuse to read the disproportionate crime statistics, and the media sure will never report those. I think this and thousands of other identical attacks each year is evidence we must simply live in separate neighborhoods. The forced busing of the 1960's obviously didn't work , thanks federal government!

Police investigating videotaped attack on Ocean View teen

UPDATE: Five youths will be charged with misdemeanor mob assault
Edited video of the attack.
NORFOLK
In the video, the 13-year-old boy struggled to stay on his feet as several youths punched and pushed him from all sides. When he finally went down, the blows didn't cease; he tried to protect his face and head with his hands. As he pleaded for them to stop, he was kicked in the face.
After the weekend beating in Ocean View, which lasted less than 40 seconds, the boy struggled to his feet, his face bloody.
The youth, Damin O'Rourke, who only recently moved to Norfolk's West Ocean View from North Carolina, was left with bruises and scrapes. Police have identified several assailants - juveniles who they said could face misdemeanor assault charges.
Once again, the city is facing questions related to an assault involving several young assailants.
Damin is white; his assailants are black. Still, police said in a news release: "The assault does not appear to be racially motivated according to information gathered by investigators that we are unable to release." The city's Gang Squad was investigating, said Officer Chris Amos, police spokesman.
In July, a group attacked three men in East Ocean View; one died. Police charged seven people, ages 15 to 29, in that case. Police do not think the two attacks are part of a larger pattern, Amos said.
The incident comes on the heels of a march that drew thousands to Jena, La., to protest the treatment of several black youths who were charged with serious crimes in connection with an assault on a white youth. While the circumstances were very different - protesters in Jena said the young defendants were being treated too harshly - the national news media, and some international news outlets, nonetheless took an interest in the Norfolk case.
Billy Cook, a city School Board member who is black, said in an e-mail that community leaders, especially black leaders, should speak out against violence. He said in an interview that black youths are over represented in discipline reports he sees from the schools.
"We need to address the issue directly, deliberately and intentionally, and say 'Enough is enough,'" he said.
Damin, a seventh-grader at Northside Middle School, spoke about the beating Monday at his family's home on Hickory Street. He said it started without provocation or warning around 5 p.m. Saturday at Marlow and Orange avenues.
He said several people attacked him. Most were strangers, he said, although one went to Northside Middle School.
The attack was videotaped by a youth from the neighborhood who uses a camera to capture images of skateboarding, said Damin, who refused to identify the boy. He said the youth gave his family a copy of what he recorded; they, in turn, released it to news outlets.
WVEC reported that the youth with the camera had been threatened at school for taping the assault.
Police acknowledged the Gang Squad was investigating but did not otherwise reveal any theories about what may have been the motive for the assault.
and then quoting "HISTORY" is not a racist comment! I stand by my comments that all of our grandfathers on this website were correct in their practices. I was also attacked many times and kicked in the head worse than that kid probably. However, I still seem to have some love for truth, and love for my own grandparents, all of our grandparents and their practices. If quoting history is racist according to you, that's your prerogative to do what you believe is right. At least you've made your choice to take a side when it involves truth and love, I think you have chosen hate and lies as your preference. That is just my opinion.
