The fight-turned beatdown that occurred early Saturday morning on Fourth Street in downtown Cincinnati has struck a chord, politically, racially and socio-economically.
Cincinnati City Councilmember Victoria Parks was feeling the weight of all those views after posting a comment on Facebook saying the people who police were calling victims, begged for the beating they received:

The council member is clearly LOW IQ
Well, why people did this to Black people all the time you guys expect us to give a fuck there’s no such thing as a hate crime against a white person shut up all of you
Which is why, when I see a black person, I get out of the area, as quickly as I can.
This woman should not be allowed to be free.
We aren't Africans we are indigenous to the Americas.
Guess if a bunch of white kids attacked her and beat her up seriously she would say that she deserved it.
She is unfit for any public office. She should be fired immediately!!
Come on Cincy, that lady holding any office including dog catcher is just ridiculous
Like she stated, actions has consequences, so the same level of accountability should be applied to her as well. Don’t wait for her to waste time and tax payers money with pandering and playing victim. She needs to be fired and forcibly removed immediately.
That parks should be immediately fired
Hey Parks, you wanna live in the past, ok. then you will never have the respect from the white community and we will stay divided because of people like yourself
She’s racist trash
FAFO😂😂 always remember keep your ya hands to yourself and watch what you say and be respectful. You cant dictate how people respond being threatened or disrespected.
Fire her ass
Without any video or credible witnesses, who actually believes the White victim slapped anyone ?
I love this council woman ..I support her like you support Trump.. we love Ms Parks
Inappropriate actions?! Like stomping, kicking and throwing your entire body weight on someone who is rendered unable to fight back
When we have robot servants and space ships black peoplec will still be using the race card.
I agree with her.
Parks claims she has freedom of speech which she clearly believes gives her the freedom to encourage unrestrained racial hate and violence against white people on grounds of revenge. Why am I surprised that she is still proud of her barbaric and savage agenda of race hate? The only answer that comes to mind is that she wants to escalate the toxic anti-white racial hatred and violence that has brought her into public office.
The worst reality here is that she has massive support from the black communities right across the USA.
Parks is a genuine POS!
LOCAL 12: your reporting sucks. That white did not do anything but defend himself from animals. Too claim he "slapped" them is non sense.
That council woman and every other ones that think the same need to be removed from office? Shame on her.
I dont know why they still try to fight black people when they are all weak af.. And start crying "victim" whey they get their ases handed to them. These people are fkin stupid 😂😂
If people of a color mob up & beat others down, it wrong. No matter what. If you applaud this, don't cry if it happens the opposite way. Even though it won't.
Regardless of who threw the first slap, Holly was unjustifiably sucker-punched in the face and knocked unconscious.
She’s disgusting
Take this woman’s job and send her to prison
They gone get the memo one day😂😂😂😂
She will help bring back the times they say they hated.
Yes Ms. Parks, for every action there is a reaction.
WP will gaslight and lie to be the victim and hero when convenient. Arrest the WM who started the brawl.
How she get her glasses to stay on the tip of her nose.
She needs to be fired. Whit@€ people need to protest to get her ass fired cuz she is racist and doesn't need to be in office
Cincinnati I would be ashamed of this council person. This is how you run your city? You might a well shut down. SAD!
What steps are being taken to remove Victoria Parks from her seat?
CERTAIN SPECIES OF HUMANS SHOULDN'T BE NEAR OTHER HUMANS,…FOR A GROWN-UP ELDERLY WOMAN TALKING LIKE THAT ,MEANS,SHE CAN KILL A WHITE PERSON WITHOUT ANY REGRET ,BE IT A CHILD ,…plz don't let your children near this DEMON
So nobody deserves to be beaten, but they deserved to be beaten. Nobody should commit violence, but it's ok that they committed violence.
When a white man does something, it's wrong, but when a black man does something, it's understandable. I'm not defending the dude for dropping the nword or his "so-called slap," but that does not give someone the right to curb stop and soccer kick the guy in the face. Punching, yeah, I'm fine with that. But he punched the guy, chased him into the street, and stomped his head into the pavement. There is no defending that. Plus, from what I can tell, those words only started flying after he was viciously beaten, so how could he have deserved the beaten for something he said after he was already beaten?
Anyone that condone this kind of treatment should not be in office .
Drunken racial slurs hurled on the Black People minding their own business then slapping a Black Man in the face……..
Did Black People deserve to be abused and unalived during slavery and now???????????
I dont feel sorry for him at all .i bet hell never slap a colored again 😂!!
Same charges for the MIA Russian…..Hypocrisy!
Keep your hands to yourself 👊👊👊💪
Fire her!
Do us all a favor and resign
Shoutout to this sista
Where is the original video this lady is speaking about? Why would she ever make a statement like this!! 🤦
World is cooked.
Step down.
