Gucci Mane’s Wasted was the song playing when 22 year-old David McKnight became the victim of a racially motivated attack in Palm Bay, FL.
Police charged 14-year-old Joshua Lamb with battery after the teen punched McKnight for listening to rap music. He is currently being held in a juvenile detention center.
"The argument involved the black male suspect saying, ‘You shouldn't be listening to rap music because you're white," Palm Bay police spokeswoman Yvonne Martinez told FloridaToday.com.
"[McKnight] then told them that he could listen to any kind of music he liked.”
The teen punched McKnight in the face resulting in a swollen left eye. According to McKnight there were at least seven others with Lamb encouraging the attack. McKnight fled the scene and contacted police. When confronted by police Lamb gave a false name but was later identified by his mother.
The teen was charged with giving a false name and battery which could turn into a felony if state prosecutors decide to charge Lamb with a hate crime.

found this on a site that reports on interracial crime. In the politically correct world we live in today the media does'nt even give a descrpition of the suspect usually. Making him/her harder to find. This site is not P.C.

I use to think the site was racist. But, to be honest I find that its the only place to read about what really happened and who did it. Its opened my eyes to the ever more dangerous society we live in today. I think that truth and awareness on who is commiting most of the sensless crime is better than peoples feelings.
Got something to say?
