Hate Crime Horror? Cincinnati Couple Beaten Unconscious at Jazz Fest – Shocking Video Sparks Outrag

[American Girl]

Excerpt:
A brutal and horrifying video out of Cincinnati has gone viral, showing what many are calling a racially motivated hate crime. The footage, taken Friday night during the city’s Jazz Festival, captures a gang-style beating in the middle of a street—two white individuals, a man and woman, viciously attacked and left unconscious by a group of black assailants.




Not only a hate crime, the guy stomping on his head should be charged with attempted murder.

Cincy has become a hell hole like most democratic cities. Will never go there again unless I have no choice.

If the races had been reversed, we'd be seeing 24/7 MSM coverage and outrage.

And this is why I don't go to large population centers anymore.

I don't either.  Why take the risk of venturing into a crowd? I walk the parks and even at that I'm careful along the back trails. I don't like the fact at all that we have seen a population boom in this area.  Not happy about that at all.

Is there any evidence race was a factor though? This is absolutely assault and possibly attempted murder, but not necessarily a hate crime.

Some people need to go to prison for a long time for that.

Of course. Maybe it was just a casual disagreement over sports teams or a parking space or the best vintage of chardonnay, and the whole group had to beat them up and stomp on heads over it. 
Sad to say, my past experience tells me it is highly likely that race had everything to do with it. (especially given the constant rhetoric blaming white people for, well, whatever ails you if you're black, and calling for violence--something I hadn't seen this intense since the 60s and 70s).
That was Obama's 'gift' to race relations, to set them back over half a century.

But then, no violent crime is committed out of love, so I find 'hate crime' to be redundant. The classification was intended as a way to more enthusiastically prosecute Caucasian offenders who harmed minority victims.

To me, the law should be color blind if all are equal under it, so charge them with attempted murder and prosecute them like you would a group of white people attacking a black couple in the same fashion, (without the riots, looting, and burning, of course).

Not a hate crime?  What else would you call beating two people unconscious? Perhaps it wasn't a racially motivated hate crime, but the assailants were black and the victims were white.  I just don't see how it could be  'labeled' as anything other than a racially motivated hate crime.

... At one point, the man can be seen attempting to stand up as the barrage of attacks by the crowd temporarily comes to a stop. He immediately falls over in apparent disorientation, as cars honk their horns for the assembled crowd to move out of the road.

Later on in the video, a woman can be seen sneaking up from behind and grabbing at another woman who was seen checking on the fallen man, while a separate man in the crowd punches her. The punch causes the woman to fall to the ground, with her head slamming down onto the concrete. ...

Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval has so far not provided comment on the incident.

Excerpt:
The fallout from the brutal mob attack at Cincinnati’s Jazz Festival has taken a dramatic new turn. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon has officially stepped in, blasting the racially charged assault and reminding Americans that federal hate crime laws protect everyone, not just select groups.




This would be national news if this was a black man being attacked by a gang of white men. There would be riots in Cincinnati, looting, and burning down of buildings. But since it was an attack on white tourists by a black mob, you won’t hear a thing from the mainstream media.

@VivekGRamaswamy

I spoke to Holly earlier today (the woman tragically assaulted in Cincinnati this weekend). She’s a single working mom who went to a friend’s birthday party. It’s unconscionable that there were no police present in that area of Cincinnati on a Friday night, or even an ambulance to take her to the hospital. Hard-working Americans shouldn’t have to worry for their safety when they have a good time in our cities.

Holly said not a single local or state official had yet reached out as of earlier this afternoon, other than one police detective.

 Leftists like to lecture about ‘systemic injustice’ while thugs turn our turn cities into war zones. I’m done with their excuses. As governor, I’ll make sure they’re behind bars, not running wild. Our cops will have the green light to restore order—no apologies. Holly appreciates the kind words and prayers from patriots across the country, and hopes that the publicity around her story ensures that local & state leaders clean up our failing cities. We hope to visit Holly soon as she recovers.

Cincinnati police chief says out of 100 people watching and recording violent attack, only 1 called 911
Police chief expresses disgust that only one person called 911 while dozens recorded brutal attack on their phones

Authorities have charged at least five suspects in a violent attack that took place in downtown Cincinnati, according to police.

FOX 19 reported that the beating took place on Friday night between Elm and Fourth Streets, with videos going viral on social media.

Video circulating around social media shows two people attacking a man wearing a white T-shirt, who is eventually shoved to the ground. The man wearing a white T-shirt was kicked several times while he was on the ground, but eventually gets up.

A woman was also seen lying unconscious in the street after being punched. Several people can be seen helping her get up, and she eventually regained consciousness.

Ohio Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke with Holly – the woman who was knocked to the ground – on Monday.

"She’s a single working mom who went to a friend’s birthday party. It’s unconscionable that there were no police present in that area of Cincinnati on a Friday night, or even an ambulance to take her to the hospital," he said. "Hard-working Americans shouldn’t have to worry for their safety when they have a good time in our cities. Holly said not a single local or state official had yet reached out as of earlier this afternoon, other than one police detective.

"Leftists like to lecture about ‘systemic injustice’ while thugs turn our cities into war zones. I’m done with their excuses," he continued.

I'd add that she said anyone who "tried to harm someone" was going to be charged. Self-defense and defense of others involves stopping someone from attacking and in doing so often is only affective if you "harm" them in the process of stopping them.

Exactly. If I came upon a group of people trying to kill a defenseless person, I'd probably pull my weapon and be prepared to "harm someone." And then I'd be the bad guy, apparently.

NO woman, ANYWHERE, should be permitted to be a police "chief".
NO woman, ANYWHERE, should be permitted to be a regular police officer.

I TOLD YOU that you weren't going to like this post.

Having said that, justice isn't going to be done so long as the locals in Cincinnati (police, DA, etc.) are in control.

Mr. Trump should move right in and instruct the federals to level charges and take over prosecution of these blacks.

Make examples of them.

Nah, I'll be the first to acknowledge that females in law enforcement and the military are at a great disadvantage against the bad guys. One of our local sheriff's deputies, a K-9 handler, got into a scuffle with a criminal a few years ago, and her training, strength, and dog were insufficient against a college student who was hallucinating and very hopped up on some sort of drug; she was left bloodied and bruised.

The deputy explained, “All the K-9 bites, punches, knees, and baton strikes did not deter this guy. He wasn’t there. The drug had consumed every part of him.  ...

“It was me and him for about five minutes,” she recalled. “My glasses were shattered and knocked off my face, none of my radio transmissions got out, and a ton of equipment was stripped from my vest and duty belt.” Richmond deployed her dog again as two other deputies arrived. Jackson (the perp) allegedly bit one of the other officers and fought until the team finally got him in handcuffs. ...

Maybe no male deputy could have taken on this guy alone, either, but it can be scary.

I agree with you. There maybe some women that can do the job well...but not many.

My point is:
Never live in a Blue State. Blacks and Latinos are above the law and White people deserve whatever happens to them.
(White people are too smart and too successful)
Also, Never be caught "downtown" in ANY major city on the street at 3a.m.
(unless you are armed and ready)

[240B]

Based on the words of the uber-Liberal so called 'Police Chief', anyone arrested will either be released or they will get some kind of bullshit 'probation' and community service. I doubt any of the people who were filmed committing 'felonious assault' and actual 'attempted murder' will get any kind of real sentence. They will be released almost immediately.

And they know this. This is why they do what they do. No consequences for anything.

They are Black. And Blacks are above the Law. The Police Chief said so. Well, when taken 'in-context' (meaning Black on White) it wasn't really such a big deal. Do we really need to arrest these poor ignorant oppressed people? Black people cannot be held accountable for their actions, because Black people cannot help behaving as they do. We cannot expect Black people to be civilized and to obey the Law because they are not like us. They are not able to control themselves.

These are not my words. This is what White Liberals say about Black people. This is the actual argument of American Leftist Liberals across the country word for word.

In Grand Forks ND many years ago, it took seven officers to subdue a guy who was high on PCP (Angel Dust). These were not 'donut dollies' but more like Paul Bunyan types. It's scary how much energy some drugs give the people who take them, especially when you consider they are out of it and not having any rational thoughts (and angry at the world).
She did pretty well if she held out that long.

Cincinnati Police Chief Claims Violent Mob Footage Missing ‘Context’

Cincinnati, Ohio, Police Chief Teresa Theetge claimed Monday that viral footage of a violent mob attack in the city was missing “context.”

https://www.breitbart.com/crime/2025/07/30/cincinnati-police-chief-claims-violent-mob-footage-missing-context/

[Free Vulcan]

The problem here is unequal justice when you are in a blue area. The preferred group who initiated the violence gets nothing. The non-preferred group who simply defends themselves gets the book thrown at them.

And officials don't care because the less of a non-preferred group that lives there, the more likely they are to get elected if they are the right party.

To which I say screw that, there's no need for me to drop tourist dollars in your locale. Let it  burn.
