How in the world is this NOT a hate crime.  Oh wait, I know, it was a bunch of scumbag blacks beating up a white woman.  Sarah did ABSOLUTELY nothing to provoke this.  She mearly wanted a seat.  Why is it that you barely, if at all heard about this in the media.  Why is it whites aren't marching and demonstrating.  Wait, I know the answer to that too...the majority of whites have jobs and can't afford to take the time off to demonstrate. I hope these scumbags get beaten to a pulp in jail.

Woman Beaten on Bus
Luke Broadwater, Baltimore Examiner, December 6, 2007

As Sarah Kreager, 26, tried to sit down on a Baltimore City bus Tuesday, police say, a middle-schooler told her she couldn’t. When she attempted to take another seat, a middle-schooler wouldn’t let her. Finally, according to police, Kreager just sat down.

She was “immediately attacked” by nine students—three females and six males—from Robert Poole Middle School. They punched and kicked her at 2:59 p.m. at the intersection of 33rd Street and Chestnut Avenue, according to Maryland Transit Administration police.

She sustained “serious injuries” and had to be transported to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, according to a police report.

Kreager suffered two broken bones in her left eye socket, police said.

“She had eye muscles that were damaged,” a police report states. “She had deep lacerations on the top of her head and another above her neck.”

All nine suspects, ages 14 and 15, were arrested and charged with aggravated assault.

Greene [Jawauna Greene, an MTA police spokeswoman] said the investigation into the incident was ongoing and she didn’t know whether the attack had anything to do with the victim’s race.

The suspects in the incident are black. The victim is white, according to the police report.

Baltimore resident David Briggs, who lives near the crime scene, said the incident underscores Baltimore’s pervasive crime.
