    Three of the perpetrators have been charged. So far only with misdemeanors, but it’s still under investigation. I’m surprised that initial assault wouldn’t be a felony. Seems like there were more than three white guys in the brawl with the black guy, so hopefully more charges are coming.

    It looks like Reggie, the chair man, might be in some trouble also. Possibly not for whacking the guy over the head with the chair who had been going around punching people. But after he finished with that guy, he walked over and whacked the chair on the head of a woman who was sitting on the dock. That woman had been tussling earlier, but at the time he hit her with the chair, she was just sitting there.

    My favorite part was when the security guard tossed his baseball cap in the air and said "it's on now bruh!"

    In both situations, both deserved the ass kickings they got. But not sure the white idiots at the dock were racially motivated as I believe the same would have happened had the guy running the dock been white. And the two guys who beat the crap out of the black thief would have done the same to anyone stealing from their place of business.

    As an aside, read the store owner might somehow might be facing criminal charges, which is ridiculous. Something tells me though that the black guy who used a chair to beat people over the head won’t have to worry about any charges being filed against him.

    So you're thinking maybe the first guy wasn't a racist, but everyone who joined in afterwards was?

    Thanking back to all my visits to the landing in jax for FL/Ga. Used to be fun, then more and more fights broke out. Don’t even remember if any of it was racial or just dipshit Vs dipshit. I just know I haven’t gone back to that area before Or after a game in a loooooooooong time.

    I dont mean to be prejudiced but.... I have yet to see any proof that you can own a boat and not be a total ass.

    Poors getting beat up by poors but for some reason the usual suspects are somehow celebrating this as some great achievement. America has a class problem.

    Witness says racist language was used before assault at Montgomery dock, court document shows | CNN

    A witness says a racial slur was used before a brawl Saturday at a riverfront dock in Montgomery, Alabama, a court document shows.

    The mother of one of the victims in the altercation alleged in a sworn statement to police that “you could hear men yelling ‘f**k that n***er’” as the Black co-captain of a riverboat tried to move a pontoon boat occupying the riverboat’s docking location.

    A bunch of boaters fighting a river boat captain doesn't strike me as "poor on poor" violence

    boats + day drinking =jackwagon most of the time

    I don’t own a boat, but 90% of the time I’ve spent on a boat ( without kids) I was day drinking. Never fought as a result but made lots of terrible decisions including injuring myself( slicing open arm, leg, etc on broken glass) on many occasions

    those pontoon boats are cheap as F and junk….for the most part…..
    But I get what you’re saying. Those idiots should have had their boat sunk. I’ve also seen plenty of sober people park in handicap and jump out and sprint into the store. Should be immediate tow

    I dont know what their class status is, but when I saw the video nothing about it struck me as a bunch of impoverished, struggling people going at it bum fights style.
