[From article]
A 72-year-old cancer survivor was left with bleeding on the brain when he was knocked out in broad daylight on a West Village street, law enforcement sources and the victim said on Tuesday.
Retired cabbie Donald Lathrom was listening to his iPod while walking to his home from a local deli around 5:30 p.m. when a punk standing on the sidewalk near the corner of Jane Street near West Street smashed him in the face.

Boston Minister Laments Silence Of Public Officials and Alleged Victim Advocates After State Rep. is Expelled From Legislature For Attacking A Woman
Posted February 7, 2014 8:30 PM ET; Last updated February 9, 2014 5:45 AM ET
[From article]
What especially concerns me is how black leadership, most recently the NAACP, has supported Henriquez in his desperate attempt to stay in office, or has remained silent on the issue. This is as disgraceful as the violence itself. Black leaders have, with rare
exceptions, failed to raise their voices to call for Henriquez’s expulsion from the Legislature.
As a black man, I am outraged. The black political leadership of the city and the state have not displayed courage in repudiating the misbehavior of their own.
Perhaps more amazing is the silence of black female elected officials. The same must be said of the various anti-violence groups, not least those that are led by black women. Where were their voices?
Don't feel bad Rev. Scott. People in Massachusetts, see, hear and speak no evil. Cambridge city officials and Harvard University officials and their police employees, dominated by limousine liberals, "always" speak for the "most vulnerable." Meanwhile they allowed and joined in a 43-year-ongoing program of harassment, insults, provocations, humiliation, ridicule, abuse, character assassination of a 70-year-old white man who they all say is "crazy." City, state and U.S. taxpayer funded agencies whose mission is to protect such persons join in or stand by and allow it to continue. Currently it is a Harvard University campus policeman. The lesbian graduate student in psychology at Harvard University Medical School who was conducting a criminal behavior conditioning campaign trying to make me into a homosexual failed. The Harvard University campus police officer who protected her, appeared at my residence to take her place disturbing my sleep, tampering with my browser, operating system, and causing my computer to crash. In the film Five Easy Pieces, a woman asks Susan Anspach, "Don't you think that more harm has been done in the name of love than in the name of evil?" Anspach gets upset and walks out. I'm told that this policeman "loves" me. Huh? Probably loves me like the woman who told everyone I met and everyone I knew and know, "He's a retired drug dealer." She and her husband too said they loved me. With friends like these who needs enemies? How long before the President of Harvard University and the General Counsel appear on premises to do the same? Harvard and Cambridge residents love to torment people they believe are vulnerable and unable to fight back. They say they speak for them. It is a charming state and it is to be expected that they remain silent about a state rep being jailed for attacking a woman. As Hillary Clinton said, "What difference does it make?"
"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing." -- Albert Einstein

“I’m a Nanticoke resident, I’m a retired policeman, I own a business here and my grandfather was beaten and robbed years ago. I wasn’t in position then to offer a reward, and the person was never caught,” Grevera said. Grevera said he’s putting up the initial $1,000 and will release details about how others could contribute when he starts the fund at a local bank. In the event the crime should not be solved, the fund shall serve as a permanent one for use at discretion of the police for victims of violent crime in Nanticoke, Grevera said.

Black Teens Attack 82-year-old Pittsburgh Woman
[From article]
An 82-year-old woman went home Thursday after spending two weeks first in the hospital, and then in rehab.

NY Man With 20 Arrests Mugs Two Women, 65 and 93, Visiting Childhood Home
No one was watching this thoughtful young man who took time from his busy schedule to molest two elder women and to steal their purses. No crime family, no police, no Harvard University campus cops. No Communists and no FBI informants. But all of the above-mentioned groups take turns in Cambridge MA on property owned and operated by the President and Fellows of Harvard College, harassing a 70-year-old white man who they all say has a disability. The FBI used him to fight organized crime for 15 years and did not pay him. Now the FBI coordinates character assassination and who harasses him each day, disturbing his sleep every one or two hours and causing his computer to crash by felonious tampering.

Two Black Teens Beat To Death 89-year-old White Veteran
Jesse Jackson, Eric Holder, Barack Obama, The New Black Panther Party, Chris Matthews, and Al Sharpton did not explain if this attack was retaliation for Trayvon Martin or if the dead man did something awful that outraged these young black victims of racism. Was this Washington man an author of Jim Crow laws? A member of the Spokane KKK?

MA State Rep Calls For District Attorney To Resign
Marian Ryan, Middlesex District Attorney
Jim Lyons, Jr., MA State Rep. (R-Andover)
On an earlier occasion when she was the chief of the Elder Abuse division for the district attorney, Ryan told me that her office was too busy with homicides to investigate abuses of elders. Perhaps this attorney is unable to address all of the criminal events within jurisdiction. Based on 25 years of experiences in the Cambridge Middlesex area, laws are optional, and protecting vulnerable persons is a low a priority in this area of the country.
From an earlier post on this blog:
MIDDLESEX DA: We're too busy to address crimes less than murder.On Thursday June 25, 2009 Marian Ryan, who works for the Middlesex District Attorney in MA, returned my call from the previous day. She heads the unit for abuse of elders and abuse of persons with disabilities. She told me, "We've had four murders this month." That was to explain why she was unable to address 35 years of police abuses of a citizen with a disability now an elder. She said that a police officer making a threat did not rise to the level of a crime. She did not have time or resources to address abuses by the City Manager and the Police Commissioner of Cambridge, and the Harvard University campus police. It was no concern that using police to harass a person with a disability may be the reason for the four murders. MA Civil Rights statute and possession of illegal firearms are felonies, but not murder. Misallocation of resources is easily apparent. If the police focused on criminals instead of harassing elders with disabilities there might be less violent crime. But who was I to argue.

Serial NJ Burglar, Accused Attempted Murder Never Under Surveillance

[From article]
Custis, whose last known address was on Irvine Turner Boulevard in Newark, has 12 felony convictions dating back to the early 1990s. He was most recently jailed in connection with a string of burglaries across New Jersey in March 2011 and served 10 months

Here's one more gentleman who was committing violent crimes and no one was watching him. But after 40 years of criminal abuses by police, crime families and Communists, Harvard University campus cops, Somerville, and Boston police take turns continuing 24/7/365 surveillance and harassment of a law abiding 70-year-old white male with a legal disability. Criminals are free to go about their business while police resources are focused on harmless individuals for the sadistic historical retaliation of misguided victims, women, black people and homosexuals. Taxpayer funded public safety resources have curious priorities in Massachusetts. Lawyers employed by the Civil Rights Division of the Massachusetts Attorney General's office participate after diverting a call to the Disability Rights Division. District Attorney's Elder Abuse unit too busy. Major focus on same sex marriage and high school student bullies. Silence about 60 homicides by organized criminal gangs in Boston working with the FBI.

Eventually after multiple threats about beating up the white guy, the white guy says one thing about slapping the black man. The black man then hits the white guy, which then the white man beat down the black guy.
