The tragic event that led to this shocking admission occurred on March 28, as truck driver Nick Stokes and neighbor Johnathan Cooper were heading out of Birmingham hauling a portable cabin. While rounding a curve, one of Stokes' tires slipped and kicked up some gravel, which angered a black motorcycle-gang member who was in close proximity. The gangster -- part of the notorious "Outcasts of Alabama" -- gave chase and tried to force Stokes to pull over to the side of the road. Here's what happened next, as reported by the Macon Beacon's Scott Boyd, whose piece has been published online by J. Christian Adams:
The motorcyclist then sped up and pulled in front of Stokes [sic] F-250. He stopped in the middle of the road and forced Stokes to stop. He then jumped off his bike and came around to the passenger side and hit the rear passenger window with his fist but it didn't break. Stokes then made the quick decision to get out of there and pulled out around the parked motorcycle.
Stokes said he looked back in his rear-view as he pulled away and noticed the biker rolling in the highway. "He either tried to jump in the back of the truck or onto the trailer and somehow slipped."
Stokes said when he noticed the injured man flailing in the roadway he stopped, worried about leaving the scene of an accident. Stokes said he was getting out of his truck to go check on Clay when a woman in a red Jeep pulled alongside and shouted a warning: "You better get out of here - they've got guns." That's when Stokes looked back down the highway and [saw] some the motorcycle gang - 30 or 40 bikes strong - headed his way. "I jumped back in the truck and took off until I could find a busy intersection and that's where I stopped."
Stokes said he and Cooper were immediately surrounded by a gang of black bikers, all with black bandanas covering the bottom half of their faces.
The gang forced him out of the truck and commenced their revenge attack. "After I saw the knife and then felt the stabbings I fell to the ground and played dead - I think that may have saved my life," he said.
Stokes heard police sirens seconds later, as his friend, Cooper, had called 911 on his cellphone. But despite the authorities having identified the injured gangster as Ladarrious Clay of Birmingham, none of the bikers were detained or even questioned, reports Boyd. Shocking.
And the silence is deafening. Boyd contacted the Birmingham News, only to be told that the incident wasn't "newsworthy." In fact, if J. Christian Adams hadn't published the story at PJ Media, we probably never would have heard about it. The Macon Beacon is so small that it doesn't even have a website.
As for the relevant law-enforcement agency, the Adamsville Police Department, its public affairs officer had not responded to Boyd's inquiries as of his press time. Yet it's not as if they had no answers at all. They told Stokes that there was nothing they could do, as it would be impossible to identify those who actually wielded the knives. And then there was that more shocking admission. Both Stokes and Boyd were told the same thing by the Adamsville police.
We "don't mess with the Outcasts of Alabama."

I'm sure the Holder DOJ will be investigating this right away. ::cussing::
You know, nothing sates the rage anymore. We're losing our entire civilization because Alinsky was right, we're beholden to our own "code". That code that we have and they don't. Our own sense of "decorum" or "propriety" and all the "let cooler heads prevail; this isn't the hill to die on" bromides are only succeeding in handing the Left its victory.

Whelp, there we are, we've got the police won't stop the thugs meme
coupled with the (see:Zimmerman) if you defend yourself you are the
aggressor meme and they've pretty well got the market on intimidation
cornered.

I will use lethal force to defend myself, my family or even a defenseless/innocent bystander. As the saying goes, "I'd rather be judged by twelve than carried by six."

Time is up. Really. All of this "oh, we have to let them make the first move" hoohah? They've been moving.
Our turn.
"Battle of Athens".

Yeah I echo all of the above, and if this worthless police outfit isn't intersted in doing their ::cussing:: job I reckon it might be time for the plug to be pulled on the department as a whole!
People must take care of themselves and theirs!

Barney Fife would be so proud.

I know quite a few members of this group.

A friend of mine has a sister in Palm Springs. Last year her car was stolen from her driveway. The police showed up, told her who did it, and then advised her not to file a report because they couldn't protect her if the gang retaliated.
I would have had a "for sale" sign up the next day. She still lives there.
