[QUOTE]A former Minneapolis, Minnesota mayoral candidate was mercilessly beaten up by two teenage girls after having his cellphone stolen at a Mall of America Starbucks.
Mark Andrew came in second to Betsy Hodges in the most competitive mayoral race Minneapolis has seen in a generation.
The former Hennepin County Commissioner had just hung up the phone and was in the middle of writing his New Year's resolutions Thursday evening when a young man came up and swiped his iPhone 4S off the cafe table.
'I was targeted because the phone was out and I'm 63 years old, and I'm sure they thought that I was easy pickins,' he told the Star Tribune.
Not one to sit ideally by while a wrong is committed, Andrew got up and chased after the man but was stopped by his two teenage girl friends.
Arrested: Police arrested 18-year-old Letaija Shapree Cutler-Cain and her 17-year-old female friend for assaulting Mr Andrew. The young man who stole his phone fled the mall and has not been caught

'If somebody is gonna do that to me or somebody else, I'm not a bystander by nature I'll go in and fight,' he told CBS Minnesota.
The women, one of them armed with a billy club, didn't let Mr Andrew get away and mercilessly beat him over the head until he started bleeding profusely.

Wow, what the fuck.
Is it weird, that even though I'm not american, I'm making assumptions about the ethnicity of the two girls based on the name of one of them?
fucking scum
Who robs someone in broad daylight in the middle of the largest mall in the United States?
It has it's own police force. These people were beyond retarded (for more than obvious reasons).

Letaija Shapree is pretty culturally specific name.
He should have gone to Caribou

I don't even see why this matters or what's so compelling about it that makes you want to point it out.

I see a racial argument on the horizon.
My stance is that we euthanize anybody who identifies with any race and only allow the machines to survive. who's with me?

that's not what every billy club looks like. most billy clubs are basically just half-sized bats

I've been to the MOA, kind of weird thinking something this oddly brutal could have happened. "bludeoned over a phone" isn't exactly on your list of worries in most places but still
in what mindset does "this dude getting away with an iphone" have such high precedence that you would give yourself up by clubbing someone bloody until the cops arrest you. Could it have even been a bigger setup, knowing they were after a politician's phone and not just some old guy?

Common name for a police baton, typically either a tonfa or a short baseball bat. Sometimes a thin telescoping bar.

my brother had one of those exendy billy clubs for security, he called it an "extendo"
I always thought it was hilarious some 6'1" 140lb scrawny kid carrying around an illegal weapon, but that's just me.
holy shit i didn't realize a nightstick could do that much damage
Well, I hope the girls are prepared to get raped by the judicial system and spend their lives in prison because attacking such a high profile figure is basically a death sentence as you will spend ages in jail and no one will want to associate with the 'Mayoral Bashers'.

You're beating somebody with a big hard stick, what did you expect, the impact of a wiffle bat?
[QUOTE=Reds;43343031]You're beating somebody with a big hard stick, what did you expect, the impact of a wiffle bat?[/QUOTE]
they're designed to be non-lethal. they're pretty horrifying wounds for non-lethal weaponry
[QUOTE=TheHydra;43342497]holy shit i didn't realize a nightstick could do that much damage[/QUOTE]
Well what do you think a hard piece of wood/metal will do to someone's fragile face?
[QUOTE=TheHydra;43343125]they're designed to be non-lethal. they're pretty horrifying wounds for non-lethal weaponry[/QUOTE]
But they are still non lethal. Rubber projectiles cause big bruises.

And sometimes even bloody wounds if it doesnt hit a muscular part of the body.

iirc there was a discussion about the ethics of billy clubs a little while ago somewhere else. the general consensus was that they were extremely effective at debilitating/damaging people without actually mortally wounding them.
Wow. This is... pretty awful.
How could you do this to another human being in good conscience? I just don't understand.

You can recreate the impact and the ripples in your head just from looking at it.
this is like the least likeliest thing to happen by a wide margin... who the fuck uses a billy club to steal an iPhone, just grab the thing when he sets it on a table or something, for fucks sake its an iPhone not a gold bar
