And for people who don't want to give views to Fox, here's an archive link: https://archive.is/80i7N

Wtf? They are investigating the "attack" as a hate crime. Goddamn inbred trash cops.

He felt emboldened to do this without repercussions for a reason. He assumed the only repercussions would be from the cops, which he knew he was safe from. He was too dumb and privileged to think that he might get his ass beat.

For sure. If anything, he should be charged with inciting a riot.

I can usually make some argument in these sorts of things. Got nothing today.

"Man Spews Hate, Gets Ass Beat. Is He a Victim of Hate?!"

His own? Sorta? 🤔

To add: The locals cops, and probably the local citizens, want this place shut down. Watch the video. Even filtering out the bias, it's a fucking rough bar. Add to that it's a n***** bar, and that it's in Mississippi, well, here we are.

Local Fox affiliates are not FOX NEWS.

They operate under the Fox umbrella, contribute money to Fox corporate, and give legitimacy to Fox News cable channel. The local Fox affiliates are a critical support for Fox News, and your differentiation of "they're not Fox News" is the exact reaction they want.
