Mobile police deny hate crime
Matthew Ownes remains in serious condition after near-fatal assault.
Matthew Owens was cruelly beaten in a near fatal racially motivated attack by a black mob. He was attacked on his own porch and beaten with chairs, brass knuckles, a baseball bat, and paint cans. One of the attackers yelled “This is Justice for Trayvon.”
According to a witness, women and children were among the attackers. Racial hatred appears to be the main motivation.
Now the Mobile police are denying that a hate crime occurred.
In major cities across America, law enforcement and prosecutors are refusing to charge blacks with hate crimes for racially motivated attacks. This is especially true in majority black cities.
Mobile, AL is 48% black. The police chief and the deputy police chief are both black.
A racially charged beating of a white Alabama man by a throng of African-Americans is not being investigated as a hate crime, despite one witness’ claim that she heard an assailant exclaim: “Now that’s justice for Trayvon.”
Matthew Owens, of Mobile, Ala., was assaulted with baseball bats, paint cans and other weapons at about 8:30 p.m. Saturday after telling a group of children to stop playing basketball in the middle of Delmar Drive, according to Ashley Rains, public information officer for the Mobile Police Department.
After the children left the area, a group of adults armed with weapons returned and confronted Owens, 40, in his front yard, where he was assaulted. Owens’ sister, Ashley Parker, told WKRG she witnessed the attack and that there were as many as 20 assailants. Parker said she overheard one of them say, “Now that’s justice for Trayvon.”
Asked if the incident was being investigated as a hate crime, Rains replied: “No, it’s not. It’s being investigated as an assault.” Eugene A. Seidel, first assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama, declined to comment on the case when reached by FoxNews.com.
“Our policy is not to comment one way or another about cases,” Seidel said when asked if his office has inquired about the incident. “All I can say is no comment.”
The mobile police chief needs to be forced to resign for this

April 24th, 2012 at 3:47 pmjustice for Matthew Owens! no Justice No PEACE!! should i find out the names of the perps and call the police chief and demand a hate crime investigation?
April 24th, 2012 at 5:11 pmYou folks need to keep one thing in mind, this is home to the $PLC, they’ll be up to their necks on this case trying to make Matthew look as if he deserved it.
April 24th, 2012 at 6:06 pmThis might be the snowball that starts the avalanche, start getting prepared.
Time for the FBI to have the NBPP listed as DOMESTIC TERRORISTS if their not already doing it with the TEA PARTY under ERIC HOLDER and BARACK OBMAS orders
April 24th, 2012 at 6:23 pmI think we need to call Al and Jesse for comment as to why this wasn’t racist? And why they are not calling for heads to roll? This is outrageous and blatant to consider two words for such an outcome.
April 24th, 2012 at 6:43 pmWhy isn’t Matthew Owen’s white family members and white friends, protesting outside the Mobile, Alabama’s Police Dept. for Hate Crime Charges to be filed? Why aren’t they Demanding the local news media, take this National. Video tape the reporters at the news networks, asking them, why they hate white people. Use the same tactics, the racist black community and the Racist Black Panthers use. SHAME THEM. Until white people rally and DEMAND JUSTICE, it will never happen. If Matthew’s white family members and white friends, don’t protest this Brutal Racist assault on Matthew, why would anyone else.
April 24th, 2012 at 8:13 pmIf anyone on this website, knows family members of Matthew Owens, you need to push them to act. Let them throw a public fit, like the NAACP does. Get an attorney to fight for Equal Justice for Matthew. Publicly take up donations for his Civil attorney, while protesting. Bug the crap out of the Liberal Media, to push Matthew’s story and to connect it, with the hundreds of brutal assaults on white people, just in the past several months. It is up to Matthews white family and white friends to act first. This is a war, and to sit back an not act, is accepting defeat.
April 24th, 2012 at 8:19 pmThe children may have been stealing from Mr. Owen’s neighbor and this is why he ‘fussed’ at them. What source claimed Mr. Owen reprimanded the children for merely playing basketball? Assuming theft wasn’t the issue is it more likely they were playing in the street and were in danger of being hit by a car and out of concern for their welfare Mr. Owen suggested they be more careful? What is the racial composition of the neighborhood? Did the police go door to door to search for suspects and witnesses? The weapons used suggest the attackers live nearby unless carrying paint cans is the new fad among African-Americans.
Mr. Owens, a good citizen, was either looking out for his neighbor or looking out for the children. Yet more proof when dealing with African-Americans no good deed goes unpunished.
April 24th, 2012 at 8:46 pmJust looked on CNN. Not a peep about this on their website. Sent them a “news tip” that said simply Matthew Owens. Nothing will come of it of course…
