A white male, identified as an "Irish dude" in a July 1 2012, YouTude video, took a severe beating outside a Wrigleyville bar after he apparently referred to another man as a "minority".
Most of the dialogue in the 2-minutes and 8-seconds-long video is inaudible... but in the first few seconds of the footage, someone, presumably the Irish dude, said something that sounded like the word nigger.
Then, the same voice clearly says, "You're a minority."
As the volatile words are being exchanged, the Irishman is confronted by several angry, dark-haired men who appear to be of Latin or Italian descent.
Just when it seems cooler heads will prevail, one of the swarthy attackers lands a punch to the Irishman's jaw.
A taller white male in a blue and white striped shirt tried to defuse the situation, but as the Irishman was being lead away from the confrontation, the dark-haired men pelted the Irishman with their fists - knocking him out, cold!
Then, the attackers zeroed in on a second white male wearing a white T-shirt and short pants.
A black male bystander with dreadlocks became so excited by the violence... he could barely contain himself.
NOTE: This incident occurred outside John Barleycorn, 3527 North Clark Street.
