Two White Males Badly Beat Black Teen For Walking Through Their Neighborhood

Eliyahu Werdesheim

The conduct of killer and stalker, Robert Zimmerman, 28, was not unique, in his unprovoked attack and murder of defenseless 17-year-old Miami boy, Trayvon Martin. Prior to Zimmerman's criminal conduct against Martin, in November 2011 "two Orthodox Jewish brothers" were arrested for patrolling their "Jewish neighborhood" in Baltimore, Maryland and targeting a black 15-year-old walking through the area.

Eliyahu and Avi Werdesheim were driving through their neighborhood as apart of a local volunteer crime watch, pulled up next to the 15-year-old African-American and yelled, "You wanna mess with us, you don't belong around here, get outta here!" They threw the unarmed teen to the ground, smashed him over the head with a radio causing a cut and broke his wrist, during the savage assault.

The Werdesheim also searched and patted down the 15-year-old, in violation of the U.S. Constitution, which bars illegal searches. The assault definitely classifies as a hate crime and one that deserves to be prosecuted. They violated the Civil Rights Act.

The Werdesheim brothers were arrested for the aforementioned crimes and are trying to distance themselves from George Zimmerman. They now seek to "postpone and move their trial because of publicity comparing their case" to that of Trayvon Martin. It is very sad and disheartening that these racially motivated crimes are happening.

The day the government lets America become a land where vigilantes can take the law into their own hands, racially profiling and beating and or killing people in unprovoked attacks, is the day the country will descend into a bloody race war, which is something that needs to be avoided at all costs. The government needs to make an example of individuals engaging in these crimes, lest others be emboldened by the impunity illegally granted to them.
