The couple, who wish to remain anonymous so we’ll call them John and Jane, would raise or lower the basketball hoop to fit whomever came by to play, making it easier to use. Around 7:30pm on Monday night, April 11th, as dusk slowly fell, four kids showed up at the back of the house. One was reportedly as young as 10, one was pushing a stroller, and two were older teens. One older teen was wearing a black sweatshirt with a white rectangle, the other older teen in a yellow jacket.
“John went out and adjusted the hoop for them as he often does as a kindness, and got out the basketballs we keep on hand,” Jane said. “He asked them to be sure to stop playing at dark so he could get our daughter to bed without noise. At 9:30 they were still playing, so when my daughter complained about the noise, John went out to ask them to stop.”
Jane says her husband is of slight stature, not an imposing presence and is soft-spoken. He reportedly walked halfway down the stairs to the alley and calmly asked them to wrap it up, as the noise was keeping up his daughter.
John fell or was pulled from the staircase, unconscious, and the kids allegedly proceeded to kick and stomp on him. “He doesn't remember anything after that first punch,” Jane said.
“John is just a very calm guy,” Jane said. “After he asked them to stop playing, the bigger of the teens came at John on the stairs, yelling ‘What did you say to me? Why are you coming at me?’ The boy then rushed John and punched him [in the head].”
John fell or was pulled from the staircase, unconscious, and the kids allegedly proceeded to kick and stomp on him. “He doesn't remember anything after that first punch,” Jane said.
On a video recorded by a neighbor’s security camera, the teens can be heard exclaiming how the video on one of their phones was still on and recording during the assault. “I had my phone still recording!” one boy says. “You ain’t move it?” the other asks. “Yeah,” the first boy responded. (Petworth News verified the audio from the security footage — though the video did not capture the assault.)
While MPD showed up quickly, the responding officers told the couple they shouldn’t have spoken to the teens, but called MPD to remove them.
“The last thing we wanted to do was to call the police on four Black kids playing basketball in an alley,” Jane said. “My husband had already spoken to them, had set up the net for them. Everything seemed fine. Then this attack happened… it just seems so ruthless to attack him, leave him bleeding on the ground as they calmly walked away.”

Racist agendaposting out out out, shitty people always take advantage of the more innocent and generous people, it's not specifically a black thing.

He is a victim blaming son of a b-word that thinks people who call the police on people do it out of evil in their hearts, and presumes you are racist if you are a police officer. Sometimes reality has a way of literally punching you in the face.

Yes, I'm OK with this outcome. People who fail to understand the viciousness of human nature often tend to be abused by it.
85% of the population can be dealt with through kindness and generosity, but if you want to get along well with the remaining 15% they need to know that you're willing to put a bullet into their heads if they misbehave. When people forget this fact they tend to have bad outcomes. When society forgets this fact, it tends to have worse outcomes.

Punching you in the face, dragging your unconscious flabby white butt down the stairs like a rag doll, and stomped by a group of four people.

God. You are so insanely gorgeous. And you're a goddess. I cannot stop staring at you for the rest of the day even when you're in the shower or on your period or just laying on your couch. You must be so lonely... I know you are, but you don't have to be. You don't have to. I am here for you. I can't wait to see how you would make me feel when you touched me. I just want to cover my mouth and swallow you down to the core. You're so pretty and funny and I can't get enough of talking to you. I want to feel your lips on mine, kiss you, make out, all over, every single day. I want to... I want to get naked with you, and lie down and look at you, naked as a Greek goddess. I think you're the cutest thing ever. You're so delicious in every way, and I can't get enough of you. I just want to feel your mouth on me, as you bite down hard. Your voice is so sweet, I haven't had music like that in a long time. But your face, your body, your curves: you are beautiful. And your words, your mind... these are the reasons I am attracted to you. You mean so much to me, per se. I love you so much. I'm so grateful for you and everything you've taught me. I've never been so happy in my life.
