This incident happened about a 20 minute drive from where I live.

LINK

Here are some interesting facts about this brawl.

*It started because a high school girl posted photos of her in pornographic poses with several men. The men's girlfriends and his relatives came to her house to beat her up for the "disrespect."

*The girl's cousin stepped outside to defend her and was stabbed in the neck and killed.

*Police estimate 30-50 people showed up for the brawl.

*A 35 year old woman brought her 18 year old daughter to the incident. They are now under arrest along with at least 6 other people for murder.

Damn, was that him that ran out right at the end of the video?

That was pretty intense when that Charger went barreling through the yard.

At least they didnt have to use their AK, so I guess it was a good day.

It might have been. He was still running around and obviously didn't realize he was about to croak from blood loss.

I used to work for the Augusta Chronicle circulation department.

There was another manager who I worked with. He carried a handgun for protection.

On one occasion he was delivering papers in the projects. He walked to one of the buildings and was surrounded by a bunch of "homies."

He pulled out his handgun. They revealed their Uzi submachine guns.

So he told them he was just delivering papers and gave them a free sample.

They let him through.

Augusta is a shithole. Except for the golf course.

Lived in Augusta for eight months.

Calling it a dump is being rude to dumps.

Came very, very close to living in Augusta. Scoped some places out and everything. Wife was going to work downtown, I was going to work across the river in North Augusta.

Thank God above a better opportunity presented itself

Similar story. Took a job downtown cos I needed one, and lived within walking distance of the National. Learned quickly that the best parts of Augusta are in SC.

I've lived all across the South, but I've never known a place with as much racial tension, from both sides, as Augusta. The only place that's come close is Jackson, Miss.

Still, there are a handful of things I miss about the place. But nowhere I'd want to raise a family.

You must have lived in Jackson some time ago. Really don't see to much racial tension around my parts.

You know ... and I am sure I am going to be called a racist for typing what I am about to type ... but it's a shame we imported that tribal culture bullshite into this country. At the same time, I feel badly for those trying their best to break-away from it, to get away from it and better their lives.

I've seen those kind of things go down, first hand, on school yards ... if you are poor and black you had better not back down, you have to fight. Males and females. They have to fight to survive in those areas. And all too often it is taken to live or die levels .... it just is, there is no denying it.

At the same time it is all exasperated by the knock-out game videos, the drive by shootings, the Ferguson pillage and burning videos, etc., and who knows what the cure is going to be ... but it seems to only be getting worse, not better.

Fifty years ago America promised African-Americans a better life ... social welfare programs were expanded to the point of damn near bankrupting the country, equal opportunity laws were passed, anti-discrimination laws were passed, affirmative action agreements were reached with the universities, ... it goes on and on.

Yet 50 years later it is not getting better, it is getting worse.

This leads one to conclude that the problem is genetics ... especially when we continue to see the same things being perpetrated all over the world.

There are no longer any excuses for it to be happening like this - none whatsoever. The Jesse Jacksons and Al Sharptons and Louis Farrakhan, et al, of the world are culpable. The main stream media is culpable. The left wing nut jobs like Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are culpable ... because they all keep making excuses.

And I wanna be clear about something. I'm not stereotyping all black Americans ... not even close. I've got several close black friends who agree with me 100% and they back-up their beliefs in word and deed.

Not enough black leaders are stepping forward and taking charge though ... and when they do they are often called Uncle Toms or traitors to the black cause.

It's just not working. That video is just a microcosm of what goes on all over this country on a daily basis. Same thing that goes on in most of Africa, most of South America, much of Europe, etc.

When are they going to tire of it and put an end to it within? I do not know, I will not live to see it in my lifetime ... but fifty years ago I thought I would, I honestly thought there was a chance. I was obviously kidding myself - so were many others back in those days.

And here's the really disturbing part. There is absolutely no denying this. I bet, if you checked, 99% of the people shown in that video were raised on the social welfare system ... including the violent ones who pulled out bats and knives, who pulled the gun, who ran over others with the car ... they were born and bred on Uncle Sugar's dime. So, in essence, we are paying them to breed and as long as we do the problem will continue to grow and fester until it eventually totally destroys this country. It's just a matter of time.

Augusta, twenty minutes from where I am sitting right now, is no more guilty or innocent of it than any of a hundred, or a thousand, other places in this country right now.

It is just totally out of hand ... people are dying - too many of them. And worst of all it's often the good ones, the ones trying to break away from the bullshite, that suffer the most.
