Man, 92, beaten on street, told to 'go back to your country'

A 92-year-old man who was thrown to the ground, stomped on by strangers and told to "go back to your country" on the Fourth of July was recovering Tuesday in his Los Angeles-area home.

"Who would do this to anybody?" the grandson of the man, Rodolfo Rodriguez, told NBC Los Angeles.

"A 92-year-old senior citizen, what can he do to anybody?" another grandson, Erik Mendoza, added. "There's no harm that he meant."

The press is making a meal of this and yes, of course, this is very wrong.

I saw the headlines earlier and wondered? Where did this happen?

I always carry a brick with me in case I feel like beating someone with it.

A quick check on Facebook yields information about the woman attacker which, of course, was omitted from the article.

Yeah the picture kinda negates the 'immigrant attacked on the fourth of july' imagery.

"Laquisha Jones, 30, was arrested Tuesday night, NBC Los Angeles said. She was booked "


By the way, the injured man is a "LEGAL US RESIDENT" originally from Mexico
