BURLINGTON, N.C. —Police in Burlington say a deaf man was stabbed several times after his sign language was mistaken for gang signs by another man.

Sgt. Mark Yancey said 45-year-old Terrance Ervin Daniels was using sign language with another deaf man. A third person saw them, thought they were flashing gang signs and stabbed Daniels several times with a kitchen knife. A neighbor saw the victim and called emergency personnel.

Daniels is in stable condition at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill after Wednesday's incident.

Police arrested 22-year Robert Jarell Neal and charged him with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury and felony assault on a handicapped person. He's in the Alamance County jail on a $500,000 bond. It's not known if Neal has an attorney.

Yup! One gangbanger thinking a rival is on his turf. Whatta ya do? Grab a kitchen knife and go out and stab him as much as you can.

I'm having a case of deja vous right now - I think this has happened before.

I think we should be calling for legislation that bans all kitchen knives.

Only the sharp ones

Nope. Need to outlaw sign language. That is what precipitated the stabbing.

and other knives

and swords

and crossbows

and of course automobiles that account for over 40,000 deaths every single year.

Afterall it's not the people who use these instruments of death, but rather the instruments itself.

Outlaw all impure DNA. Launch 'Hunger Games' now!

another case of the msm not reporting the full story
the deaf guy said to the other deaf guy that he nailed the gangbangers mum in the ass last week
little did he know the gangbanger knew sign language :smilewinkgrin:

ok, i know bad taste
it's a reaction to something that is TOTALLY INSANE
stop the world, I wanna get off

 

[stewie]

what kind of hand signs could a gang member use to set a guy off the deep end to stab someone 6-7 times.... I only know of one.

And I see that every time I drive

This is nothing new folks.

Anybody remember Cabrini–Green in Chicago?

Has it been so long that nobody remembers? I remember and have been there.

If you scratched your nose wrong, you ended up dead.

i remember them all....


cabrini, robert taylor, the ickies, altgeld gardens, etc.

chitown is about to pay the fam of a woman who "fell" out a window in one of the projects.

supposedly, she was dropped off there by chicago police


but yeah, gangs signs get thrown up all the time, so you better recognize where you at....sun!

they've torn down all the high rise jets and moved those residents to the neighborhoods.


that's why the surge in violence in areas that once were quiet.


it's all about gentrification and property values


the folks being moved out are mad

the people in the neighborhoods where those folks were moved to, are mad

which puts everyone closer to the edge

don't push me, cuz i'm close to the edge

i'm tryin not to loose my head


it's like a jungle sometimes, makes wonder how i keep from going under

Looking at a map of the metro line and rail line here in Houston. Not sure what site I ended up on. But the poster identified parts of the city for nOObs. Pretty telling sign when someone labels it as being "Crack Row" and "No Man's Land".

So, yeah...gang and gangbangers are a serious thing. Gang signs and even colors...anything can be perceived as being gang related.
