Re: Brutal Head Stomp on Transgender Woman
Looks like it might have been a wee bit tipsy or high and lipped off more than necessary and the local gentry voted with their feet. Just because one has gender issues is no reason to be an asshole. I would love to see the entire one sided fight to see how it faired.

Re: Brutal Head Stomp on Transgender Woman
copy/paste from local news post... On the day the film was shot, Square says, he was running errands in Little Five Points when he heard yelling from the area in front of Stratosphere Skateboards and Aurora Coffee. "I saw this homeless person yelling, being crazy," he says. "That's something I'm used to seeing in Little Five Points. I started filming it on my phone." He claims the victim was yelling at the group and that alcohol might have been involved. Nearby business owners had asked her to leave and she knocked some things over, he says. The victim then, Square claims, tried to pick a fight with one or two members of the group. Some ignored the action in hopes she would leave. Then she came at the suspect, he says, who hit her. "The [suspect] overreacted," Square says. "I saw members pull that person away and then they helped the person who got hit to her feet and she walked way," he said. "No one called the police because she seemed fine and was still yelling." He says it seemed like the victim "got up within moments of it happening." He also says the angle at which the video was filmed - a pole obscures part of the victim's face when she is on the ground - made the kick look worse than it actually was. "It looks like their head is stomped on but in reality it was their shoulder," he says. Square says the suspect, a stranger, walked up late to the altercation. After being pulled off the victim, he quickly left the scene, he says. |
