A 59-year-old man has died from injuries suffered during an attack by two teenage brothers prompted by the man's refusal to give them a dollar.
John Weed was attending the Great Frederick Fair in Maryland on Friday with his family when he was approached by the teens, ages 15 and 16. According to the prosecution, the 15-year-old sucker-punched Weed after he refused to give them a dollar, knocking him unconscious. Video evidence of the attack shows chaos and laughter in moments after Weed hits the pavement; one of the boys even spits on his lifeless body.
Medics flew the victim to the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, 4 NBC Washington reported on Monday. Weed succumbed to his injuries on Saturday, according to the local sheriffs office.
"I think it's despicable, and it tells me a lot about how these young people view this person by the very fact after they had him on the ground they taunted and they spit on him," Frederick County Sheriff Chuck Jenkins said, according to 4 NBC Washington. "That to me shows hatred and disgust and despise."
The 15-year-old teen who landed the sucker punch has been charged with first-degree assault, second-degree assault, and reckless endangerment. His 16-year-old brother landed a second-degree assault, according to authorities.
The attackers are being charged as juveniles, but prosecution might push for the teens to be tried as adults, the NBC affiliate reported.
"I've been doing this for close to thirty years," said Frederick County States Attorney Charlie Smith. "Theres plenty of times where good people make bad decisions, but when they result in somebodys death, you get punished."
When Sheriff Jenkins was asked by a reporter what the "appropriate punishment" should be for the boys "given their age," he sternly replied, "The maximum."
"They made an adult decision by doing what they did and ended up with a man losing his life, the sister losing a brother, whatever," he said. "They deserve the maximum penalty."
The video of the vicious attack picked up traffic online on Sunday. However, the account that initially posted the video erroneously framed the attack as black teens defending themselves from a "white supremacist." The video post has been viewed over 230,000 times and garnered nearly 2,000 likes.

He started calling them the N-word, and one of the kids, fearing for his life, punched the racist man.

Well, they do have their cultural traditions, like wilding and sucker punching and social mobbing to rob stores and other charming Turd World habits.
But you see this kind of behavior up until age 30 among Afro-Americans and on a pretty regular basis. You are right that it is most prevalent among the high school and college age group.
Not to be a big lib but there are also black kids who have exemplary behavior, standards and morals and never get into trouble a day in their life. Because they were raised well and don't just go along with what the crowd is doing even if they could get away with it. They aren't all bad. OTOH, enough of them are bad that I would cross the street to avoid multiple young blacks if they look like hoods. You often can't tell which are which until you're too close to avoid the bad ones. And for all the screams about whites, it is indisputably true that whites have more reason to fear black mobs than blacks have cause to fear white mobs. The danger to blacks from white mobs mostly faded away 30-40 years ago. The danger to whites from black mobs has only grown in the meantime.
I'd better stop saying this stuff or G.I. will start talking about his rooftop and his reloading supplies. LOL

I keep my reloading supplies in my basement... I would just take loaded ammo, on the rooftop. Unless, of course (since were talking about flat earth) there is a zombie apocalypse. Then I might camp out on a rooftop, and bring up my presses, powders, primers, projectiles, dies, powder throwers, dial calipers, reloading datas, ammo cases, kinetic bullet pullers, lubes, case trimmer, roll crimp die, funnels, vice press, scales... and my fucking swivel barstool.
Not to mention a few bags of Cheetos, IPA beers and a few hunting magazines.

By the time you finish your pension strategy, you can buy an elevator to cover the distance from the basement armory to the armored crows nest on the roof. You'll be ready to move from basement to roof in seconds with your ammo and sniper rifle and supplies in a wheelchair when you're 95.
I would have thought on your roof you would have had a quad 50, on a servo, with remote control from your basement, to work in conjunction with a dozen drone's armed with RPG's.

Im a little old fashion. I still like my .308 Remington... more of a reverence for the hunt.
My largest rifle caliber I own, is a .375 Ruger. That fucker will down a T-Rex, if they still roamed this planet. Not the most pleasant fucker to torch off.
The only .50 caliber I own, is a S&W 500. 50 cal rifles will empty your wallet shooting them, even if you reload for them.
He should have got a good Mod 629 !! I sure like mine!
Ive killed more deer with my 629, than I have with my rifle. Then again, Ive killed more deer with a 1187 Remington shotgun, than any gun Ive ever owned.
I own four .44s. Including a generation 1 Desert Eagle. Cool gun.
