And flies are mammals. :roll:

Anarchism was classically considered left-wing.

The Obama administration filed a federal hate-crimes charge Thursday against a man whom authorities accused of using the “knockout game” to target a black man, videotaping it, and then bragging about the assault to strangers.

The charge marks the first time the administration has taken action on a “knockout” case after the game became an Internet and media phenomenon. It chose a case in which the person accused is white, even though most other cases reported in the news have involved black assailants.

What confuses me is why the Obama administration is getting directly involved with a petty assault crime. I didn't know the executive branch became the judicial branch.

It's a heinous cowardly thing to do to anyone, but to announce the race element, and brag about it, is begging for the extra penalty to be applied. As for the ludicrous idea that he's the only white guy to have ever done it, anyone pushing that has severe problems with reality.

Actually is seems he would get more time from his state battery charges than the Fed racial charge.

Apparently hunting down individual white criminals while completely ignoring the tremendous minority crime issue is the way he plays race war.

All the while turning his back on the hundreds of black criminals doing the same.
