High School Girl Claims to be Taunted & Beaten at Bus Stop for “Being Too White”

Just weeks after the nation witnessed the savage behavior of black mobs in Ferguson; more racial animosities continue to surface across the nation. Last night, I wrote about video of a ‘white boy’ getting knocked unconscious by a large gleeful black mob, today another story of racism surfaces. So it wasn’t surprising to hear the story going around about a South Carolina high school girl being harassed and beaten at a bus stop for “being too white”.

A 16-year-old high school girl in Rock Hill, S.C. told police that another high school girl taunted her on a school bus and then beat her up after she got off the bus. The assailant allegedly was angry at the victim because she was behaving “too much like a white person.” Both the alleged attacker and the victim are black, reports The State, a Columbia, S.C. newspaper.

In an interview with police, the victim claimed that there had been an ongoing feud between the two girls for over a year. The victim described herself as a “light-skinned black female,” according to The State. She said the other student, who has darker skin, had made fun of her and challenged her to a fight on prior occasions, but she had refused.

In an interesting twist to this “hate crime story” the “victim” who allegedly was beaten for her lighter skin color actually LIED. She called racism to get the other girl in trouble and had witnesses lying for her to corroborate her story.

According to local paper HeraldOnline:

It is true that there was a fight between the16-year-old and a 17-year-old, but the fight happened at the home of the 17-year-old, not at the school bus stop as the younger girl claimed last week to police, Bollinger said. The 16-year-old confronted the 17-year-old and the two had a “mutual combat fight,” Bollinger said.
The 17-year-old was charged with disorderly conduct from the fight because she did not retreat from the fight, Bollinger said. A police report from the investigation shows that while the 16-year-old allegedly threw the first punch, it was after the older girl “engaged in a physical confrontation first.” Both teens are Northwestern High School students. The alleged victim recanted her original version of events in an interview with police at school Monday.

As an American, I am shocked that young people of color are now dividing themselves into skin tone groups and then using their skin color as a tool to get attention or get people in trouble. This is the most anti-civil rights ideal being passed onto our children in the black community as a result of the leaders of the nation stoking the fires of racism to use a minority group to their advantage. Who will stand up and teach the children to STOP using skin tone as an excuse, reason for behavior or tool for power?
