Elderly disabled woman assaulted by racist.



MODESTO, CA - A 69-year-old woman was assaulted while sitting in her motorized wheelchair at a Modesto bus stop on Tuesday.

An ensuing investigation revealed the woman was waiting for a Modesto Area Express Bus when Nicholas Velasquez, 29, of Modesto, punched her in the face then walked away saying "I hate white people", according to Armendariz.

The woman sustained a black eye and her glasses were broken in the assault, said Armendariz.

Officers searched the area and located Velasquez nearby on Scenic Rd. He was arrested without incident and booked into Stanislaus County Jail on one count of elder abuse and another count of committing a hate crime.




No leading story on ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN or MSNBC.
No mobilizing of the department of justic.
No civil rights rallies.
No riots by white supremacists.
No racist retaliations by white youths.

    The liberals who dominate the media have a movie that runs in their minds that non-whites are perpetually the victims of white thugs. When a story does not fit their narrative, they are less emotionally motivated to report it and as a result frequently declare racism where none exists (where non-whites are painted as victims) and ignore real cases of racism (where whites are victims).

    Liberals cannot be trusted with power and they cannot be trusted to tell an honest story.

    No. Probation and a fine with time served if he didn't make bail. I think he should also be forced to do a few hundred hours community service at an old folks home.

    This happened in my city. And yes there is less media coverage on this type of crime than if this were a black lady or Mexican lady. Hispanic community is large in our area. I do not know her but have seen my share of people who just have no respect for those who cam before them and raised a family and now are living the best they can.

    High probability he was high or drunk and just felt like punching someone.

    Do you think if her name was Trayvon Martin it would get at least some attention?

    No, there isn't remotely the same level of outrage about minority on White crimes.

    He threw his grandmother, who cared for him much of his early life, under the bus as a racist "typical white person".

    His white gandmmother was the only one to care for him becasue his Mother was a self centered marxist and his father was a womanizing Kenyan who had no interest in him. He thanked her by not even being with her when she was dying. What a narcissistic pig!

    The reason that it does not get attention is as soon as it is printed they are accused of racism.

    With a racist in the White House, in the DOJ and the Left-wing biased media you would expect nothing different. This piece of scum must feel real brave, these animals better hope and pray that the " Evil White Man" don't wake up and put these brave men in their place once and for all. No excuse for attacking anyone, black people are being attacked you do not hear their wonderful black leaders saying stop!

    I am going to go one further and say ANY media today will not tell a straight story. We all know Fox, MSNBC, CNN, and the rest have fabricated stories or put in something that wasn't there in the first place.

    The bottom line? WE are the suckers of the media we are the darlings that keep them in business as we want to watch it. I for one don't even bother with watching any of them and stick with shows or sports and documentaries.

    LOl, no kidding If my memory serves me correctly. Fox was in court a few years back having to tell the courts that they do in fact lie or fib to make their stories more exciting!

    Where is Walter Cronkite when you need him?
  • Lanikai Glfer65 2012/06/08 15:00:44
    Lanikai
    Even Cronkite shaded stories.

    CBS was in court for faking stories and photos, Fox was in for NOT revealing a source. ALL of them seem to be complicit in the TOPIC here , which is NOT covering race crimes as they pertain to white victims, black perps.
  • Glfer65 Lanikai 2012/06/08 15:12:43

    Actually back in 2003 in a Florida court Fox admitted they lie and it is OK per the court ruling. They paid the fine $500,000 and went on their merry way.

    In a way Elizabeth Warren is a minority. A very tiny percentage of the population have ancestors that forced the Cherokee tribe at gun point along the trail of tears.

    She claimed that her great, great, great grandmother was Cherokee. The 1860 census listed her as white and her marriage cert did NOT indicate she was Cherokee. However, the man she married was a member of the West Tennessee militia that forced the Cherokee by gunpoint on the trail of tears. It is tantamount to claiming you are related to a holocaust survivor when you are really related to a death camp guard. The minority reference by me was a joke.
