Montreal police are investigating the brutal beating of two young men who were swarmed Friday on a downtown city street in an incident allegedly sparked by racial taunts hurled at a group of black people, according to an Internet video of the pummeling.
The 23 second beating left the two Waterloo, Ont., men, aged 23 and 26 years, lying like they were dead on the pavement as bystanders laughed and hooted. As several people gathered around the men's prostrate bodies, someone is heard saying "don't touch their necks man, watch their necks" before police and paramedics arrived. A male voice close to camera then says: "Stupid idiot, why would he say that?"
The beating happened at about 10:45 p.m. near the intersection of Ste. Catherine and Peel Sts. in downtown Montreal, Const. Laurent Gingras said.
The two men, both white, suffered from minor injuries, bruises and cuts, but refused to go to the hospital, Gingras said.
This is the comment by the person who posted it:
This was recorded last night in downtown Montreal. Apparently, 2 young men were hurling racist insults at a group of black people. The end result was that they got the crap kicked out of them, and rightly so. What were they thinking?!?
What are you thinking? What an idiot. Sure, if they were shouting racial slurs, they are epic fools and will make people angry. But this? They could have been killed.
Do they deserve that, by a mob?
"Watch their necks!" one conscientious sick fuck shouts.
Sorry but for me, both sides in this story have the IQs of doorknobs.
