There was one set-up by the NAACP, however the family has turned it down. They are actually pursuing charges as the woman followed their 5 year old while yelling slurs at him, and he is autistic. She claims he stole her diaper bag, however other witnesses have said this wasn't true, he began playing with toys that were out, and, apparently owned by her, which prompted her to do this. Following the kid, while doing this likely makes this harassment. In this particular case harassment of a 5 year old, special needs kid, and because of the slurs, a hate crime enhancer to the penalties. So she could actually be in serious legal trouble. The family said they would much rather pursue criminal charges. Also, the man who recorded, and outed, her was charged with some sort of sexual crime, i think, involving a minor. The case however was dropped in a manner that means that the case was so bad it wasn't even worth the time to consider it. So he didn't do it. He is also being harassed, and this may turn into a civil lawsuit based on things the lady said online that may cross into incitement.

However, there is an NAACP fundraiser they do support, that will go to legal costs, instead of their general income.

Good that they're losing the shame and outing themselves. It'll make things way easier when the Nuremberg part comes. Just like in the 1930's onwards.

Yes, don't just be a covert racist - say it openly and proudly to the world. That way we know who you are, and any retard defending you and making up excuses will have a harder time with it.

Luigi's defense fund has doubled this if it makes you feel better.

Not even the slightest. Going off on a five year old kid and gets this. Fuck America it has to burn to the ground.

[–] Altrex@lemmy.world 13 points 12 hours ago

The fact it is a significant fraction of his defensive fund is the depressing thing. But thanks for trying!

That bitch is now a money piñata. Now that she has something to lose, suing her stupid racist ass to oblivion is WORTHWHILE.

Now do the one where the black kid stabs the white kid in the chest, admits to it, then his family profits off of it and plays the victims the entire time.

Trash country. Trash culture.

Only way we're going is down.

After WW2, People asked "How could the German people ALLOW such things to happen"

THIS this is how it starts.... Baby steps

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago

"How could the german people allow such things to happen", says the nation that allowed such things to happen to native americans.

[–] Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world 26 points 15 hours ago

This isn't a baby step. This is someone saying, "Let's murder all the Jews" and all the other Germans throwing money at them for saying it.

Just when you think Americans can’t get any lower, they do it. Soon you’ll see that they make Russians look like Boy Scouts.

Yeah...burn it all, nothing valuable left there.

Not to worry, Trump is on it.

NAACP fundraiser for legal funds and community support

[–] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 148 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (32 children)

The parents of the child are investigating that bigot, and may be pressing charges with the help of the NAACP. I hope they get that pig’s entire GiveSendGo purse.

I hope nothing but the worst for that horrible family and all their money

[–] phorq@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 hours ago

*Except the kid who doesn't deserve to grow up around all that hate. I hope they find a way to not have their parent's hatred become their own... I know that's naive, but it would be nice
