BOCA RATON, FL — A great grandmother says she was beaten and left for dead at a Boca Raton park because of her race.

65-year-old Ruby Williams says she went to Red Reef Park on North Ocean Boulevard Thursday evening to go fishing with friends.

She says she walked to the restroom alone, and was hit from behind by someone who called her a racial slur.

Williams claims her face hit the concrete as two young men continued calling her the “N” word, telling her that her race was not welcomed here.

She says the men then rolled her onto her stomach, and one of them punched her in the face. She claims she was then dragged by her feet, and abandoned in a dark area of the park. She passed out, she says, and called for help when she finally woke up.

    this type of behavior is ghastly and a shame. Yet the generations of today don’t realize how real of a fear lived inside of the people of the african-american community for such acts werre so previlent only 60 years ago.It be harder for peeps to drop the n-bomb today if things were like that rampetly still, when their brothers,sisters, cousins, friends and lovers were dodging such abuse daily and being disrespected with such a demeaning term….

    The majority of white people are BARBARIC RACIST THUGS, they can’t help it THEIR TERRORIST by nature; it’s in their DNA so don’t be surprised by it be surprised when their not. You see their only claim to fame is MURDER, LYING, CHEATING and STEALING this is a FACT not my opinion, not to mention WHITE PRIVILEGE (AmeriKKKan style), LOL. You whites CLAIM you discovered (Electricity)-LMFAO, invented the (Computer)-CHINESE and (Internet)-WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE, the (English Language)-BRITISH and oh yes the big one; discovered (AmeriKKKa)-INDIANS, REALLY LMFAO. You CAN’T compete with us on a consistent level and everybody knows this, that’s why you TRY SO HARD to keep us out because when the playing field is even you DISAPPEAR (come on YOU KNOW I’M RIGHT, just look around) again (WHEN THE PLAYING FIELD IS EVEN THE BLACKS WIN) and sometimes IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE EVEN for us to win. YES AFRICAN AMERICANS have to do a better job of STICKING TOGETHER and keeping our hopes up despite all of the ROAD BLOCKS, WE DON’T DIE EASY FOR NO REASON but the REALITY of our situation in a lot of cases is POVERTY stricken neighborhoods AND POOR SCHOOLS AND BAD TEACHERS (*NO PRE COLLEGE TRAINING) which has been a STRATEGY put together by you guessed it (THE US OF KKK) *LAWS AND POLICIES, we were NEVER as BARBARIC as the INCARCERATED EUROPEANS that were sent to America to MURDER the NATIVES AND THE REST OF THE INNOCENT PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD, again (THIS IS A FACT NOT MY OPINION).
    P.S. Too bad for WHITE MEN with their LITTLE DICKS and WET DOG ODER, their women are crossing over in RECORD NUMBERS and sooner or later they’ll be EXTINCT. REMEMBER MIXED PEOPLE CALL THEMSELVES BLACK BECAUSE WHITES AREN’T RESPECTED BY ANYONE ACCEPT WHITE PEOPLE …GOOD RIDDANCE

    tygatony, ” REMEMBER MIXED PEOPLE CALL THEMSELVES BLACK BECAUSE WHITES AREN’T RESPECTED BY ANYONE ACCEPT WHITE PEOPLE …GOOD RIDDANCE”

    Thats about the realist shyt I’ve heard! Im mad I didnt think of it first..lol

    IT’s tragic.. and there is no such thing of post racial era..because Obama is in the White House..in fact it’s the opposite as far as racist white people are concern.. so beware black people they are looking for a RACE WAR all they are wating on is BLACK FOLKS ready to do battle…there are alot of angry racist white folks who would have never thought that they would live to see a BLACKMAN in the white house as President of these United States.

    For the grandmother who was attacked.. there is some compelling evidence describe in the article..

    #1).. it happen in a park..which mean these coward devils are probably in the park often.. so the cops need to visit the park and look for them..

    #2)..when the punks said we don’t like ni&&ers around here ..which means they are local residents..

    #3)..the grand mother got a good look at them.. so she can give a description of the attackers..

    But given the history of the SOUTH when it comes to black folks being attacked historically by white devils.. there is NEVER a priority or justice given in race based hate crimes..however HATE CRIMES is a fedral crime now..so the local authorities are supposed to get on to this as TOP priority.. so I hope the grandmother and family are not just sitting around waiting on the local police Dept to get involved because its not gonna happen without PRESSURE from.. the local NAACP and local churches and other community outlets..who should ban together and not let this race base hate crime DIE.. being POST active is the key.. just being MADD about the situation is not going to CHANGE THINGS..otherwise this will continue to happen..

    Smdh….and still after this behavior and act of violence negros still deal with and mutt breed with these barbaric individuals. Get a pale pilgrim mad and the first thing they do is get BEET red and call you a n!gger out of frustration. Ruffling a craKKKas feathers is the worst thing you can do because in doing that their true colors really show. It don’t make a difference because these WILLIE LYNCHED horse trained coons will still procreate with their a.sses. F/uck it! Just deal with the shyt. All this pro black talk some of you all pop off with but got an avalanche of pale quakers on your profile pages. GTFOH!!!!

    @splashwater

    IM NOT IGNORANT ENOUGH TO HATE A PERSON FOR BEING WHITE…BUT I WILL SAY THIS… I KNOW WHEN THE SHT HITS THE FAN WHERE I STAND. I KNOW WHAT TYPE OF “NEGROIDS” YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT BUT DON’T CONFUSE EVERYONE FOR THE SAME THING.

    I COULD NOT BE A RACIST BECAUSE I AM NOT HATEFUL. BUT I KNOW WHERE THE FUK I STAND SO IF YOU NGGAS HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT AND DONT WANT TO DEAL WITH BLACK PEOPLE THAT ARE DOWN, THEN YOU ARE THE FUKING PROBLEM AND NOT US.

    OUR STRUGGLE IN AMERICA IS NOT ABOUT HATING WHITE PEOPLE.. IT IS ABOUT LOVING OURSELVES FIRST. IT IS ABOUT LOOKING OUT FOR “US” FIRST. IF WE DID THESE THINGS… NO ONE COULD CONTROL OUR POPULATION LIKE STRINGS ON A PUPPET.

    WE HAVE A LOT TO BE P!SSED OFF AT WHITE PEOPLE FOR, BUT SOME OF YOU NGGAS P!SS ME OFF JUST THE SAME. BELIEVE THAT.
