As soon as I saw the code word "teens," I knew. I scanned through various reports and finally found one that mentioned the race of the perp.

A CNN anchor was robbed on Thursday when she was walking in Atlanta's midtown section around 4:30 p.m. Her iPhone, which was in her hand as she was strolling down a street, was grabbed by a thief passing by and stolen right from her palm!
Atlanta police tell WSB-TV that CNN anchor Carol Costello was robbed when talking on the phone and walking down Piedmont Avenue when teenagers ran up from behind and grabbed her phone. When the CNN anchor tried to fight back with one of the suspects, he pulled out a chunk of her hair and she let go.

The CNN anchor that was robbed posted on her Facebook page to say that she struggled with one of the suspects before he pulled out her hair. "As he ran down the street, laughing, I hurled a few expletives his way," Carol Costello wrote. "I felt no fear at the time, I was just angry. Now I'm angry, shaken and sad. What a lousy life those kids have ahead of them."
"I was walking down a beautiful, leafy Atlanta street, talking on my iPhone when three teenagers ran up behind me. One of them grabbed my iPhone. Stupidly I struggled to hold onto it. But, he was a big guy. And he pulled out a chunk of my hair. I let go," the robbed CNN anchor wrote.
The robbed CNN anchor isn't the only one to encounter this particular type of crime. "Cities across the country are on alert as officials warn of an uptick in stolen Apple products, dubbed 'Apple picking' where thieves steal iPhones, wipe them clean and sell them for up to one thousand bucks," reported ABC News.
The CNN anchor who was robbed also warned her readers that 'Apple picking' could happen to them. "So, a warning for you. Do not talk on your iPhone as you walk down the street. Oh, and let go of the stupid device if someone tries to steal it," Carol Costello advised.
Police also advise that 'Apple picking' could take a different form. Wearing the white iPhone earbuds at night-time make walkers a target for thieves. Hwangbum Yang was a 26-year-old Korean immigrant who worked at an upscale Manhattan restaurant. When he was walking home from work around midnight on April 19, 2012, a man approached him two blocks from his home and demanded his iPhone.
When Yang refused, the man (later identified as Dominick Davis) shot him once in the chest and Yang died on the sidewalk. He was still wearing the tell-tale white Apple iPhone earbuds when paramedics arrived. Davis had left his wallet, but had taken his iPhone. Authorities discovered the iPhone for sale on Craigslist later for $400.
Dominick Davis and his alleged accomplice Alejandro Campos have been charged with murder and are awaiting trial in jail on Rikers Island. The two suspects are pleading not guilty. "If my son never had an iPhone," the victim's mother lamented in an interview, "he would be alive now."
No arrests have been made in the robbery of the CNN anchor's iPhone at this time. However, police have released a description of the teen who is suspected to have robbed her. The teenager is described as a black male with dark skin, around 5 feet 8 inches tall. He is skinny with black, curly hair and he was wearing a light gray or light blue sweatshirt that had think dark blue stripes at the time.

These blacks were, to use the words of an Atlanta "policeman" when describing the daylight and in public shooting of three white females on an Atlanta street by a black "security guard", "bold" in stealing this Iphone. Piedmont Ave is a major and much traveled street in downtown Atlanta.
I guess these blacks had already gotten rid of their Obamaphone that US taxpayers paid for.
Glad to hear it. I have no sympathies for white liberals when their rooster comes home to bite them.
She is lucky she wasn't beaten, raped and murdered. Thanks.
There’s an old adage, “The woman’s place is in the home”. If I were God for a day, among other actions taken, I would change that adage to “A mother’s place is in the home”.
Motherhood, as a psychological state of mind, or philosophy, in my opinion, should not venture out beyond the home, or local community, church socials and such, or perhaps, at most, beyond one’s own kind. This is important because of all that is entailed in another adage, “The white man’s burden”, where a mothering aspect toward the rest of humanity, at the expense of white people, is obvious.
There are other liberal concepts imbued in the adage of the white man’s burden, however, focusing here on the mindset of motherhood, something excellent for the home, trying to be, what a mother is, to the rest of humanity, is insane.
Further, it would be one position to give white taxpayer dollars only to whites; it is another to give white taxpayer dollars to all the other sub-species of humans, especially when it not only offers nothing in return to whites, but worse when it helps whites not, but furthers those said other sub-species of humans, and obviously then, at the whites expense, to the detriment of whites, in natures struggle for survival, where in competition those better endowed win out, and those less endowed go into extinction.
In America’s 2 parties system, one perspective which could be taken is that republicans are our fathers while democrats are our mothers. The mothering aspect of democrats is evident in socialism, where all of mothers children shall be treated according to their needs as the collective wealth allows.
At this point a single dichotomy jumps right out; should we, as a particular sub-species, let nature be the guiding principle and take its course, or should we intervene on nature’s behalf, and like gods, rule to our chosen end at nature’s expense.
It should be self-evident, or at least people should begin to realize, that the ultimate end to which liberalism aspires is a new world, one world order of globalism, socialism and democracy, whereby this becomes the state of affairs for all humanity on planet Earth.
The blacks undoubtedly find this appealing as they are low man on humanity’s sub-species totem pole. This not only affords them the better life only the white man’s culture of civilization, of which they are incapable of either creating or maintaining, via parasitation, but further gives them their opportunity to meld their loser gene pool to the white winner gene pool. Further, this is the intended goal of both liberal ideology and black necessity.
When one appropriates that which belongs to God, and further, then uses it for one’s own designs, said one commits sacrilege. In my mind it is also sacrilege to appropriate that which belongs to nature, and further through appropriation of nature’s charge, then transmogrify nature’s grand design.
As white liberals persist in this very particular endeavor, especial now while said liberals are in control and giving the marching orders, we whites collectively, as a culture, race and gene pool, enter the hall of perdition, from which we seal our fate via a discarding of our own lives from living in harmony with nature, as nature’s evolution has endowed us, and begin a new journey down the road of a one sub-species, two tier, cultural existence in globalism, socialism and democracy where, moreover, the great masses will live in the tyranny, poverty and misery this state of affairs begets.
This is one of 2 possible futures our white posterity may inherit; the other future up for inheritance by our white posterity is a life that pursues liberty, wealth and happiness by living in harmony with the white man’s true nature.
This struggle is now being waged between non-liberal whites, the matured and white liberals, the immature and insane.
If not for ourselves, for our posterity.
Secession is the answer, the only answer. Thank you.
One of my observations and talking points about liberals is their failure to mature. Further, one specific obstacle to maturity many liberals fail to hurdle is cowardice.
For those particular liberals they feign noble courage by standing up to one of their own, a fellow white, someone they have no reason to fear, and then further, gallantly defend those they are cowardly afraid of, such as blacks and Islamics.
This is the liberal form of social chess, how to cheat the maturation process and make the collective of whites pay the price
White liberals are willing to sell the soul of the white people, and white culture, race and gene pool out, rather than embrace their personal responsibility to mature as nature charges us all with said responsibility.
This is one cause of the disingenuous nature of liberals. They do not argue about reality but rather feign arguing about reality in order hide their immaturity and here their cowardice.
That lady, and all liberals, hold a metaphorical white baby shield up to protect their cowardly self.
Liberals are the iceberg targeting the Titanic. Thanks.
I might actually agree with Ms. Hill if she felt the tax system is unfair, unconstitutional, etc... Maybe have some sympathy for her if she felt exploited by an unfair contract signed when getting started in the biz but what's the connection between slavery and her present predicament. It seems the "non sequitur" race card gets played more and more frequently by blacks trying to avoid responsibility for their own foolishness, when that happens whatever sympathy I might feel for their predicaments goes straight out the window.
