Account of racist Peoria mob spurs national attention
PEORIA —Sixty or more young people fought and yelled racist comments at residents as they walked down Thrush Avenue toward Sheridan Road on Friday night, according to eyewitness accounts.
“They were yelling ‘We’re gonna kill all the white people, this is our neighborhood,’” said Paul Wilkinson, 45, a resident who has lived in the neighborhood for 11 years and witnessed the incident about 11 p.m. He relayed the information over the weekend to police, city council members and at least one local blogger.
A blog post about the incident at peoriachronicle.com in turn captured national attention online and found its way to websites such as the Drudge Report.
Peoria police Sunday confirmed there was an incident Friday night but said they were instructed not to comment on it. A desk sergeant said he had received calls on the story from media outlets in New York.
The mob covered all four lanes of Sheridan and the street on Thrush, Wilkinson said. A squad car with one police officer showed up quickly, and the group dispersed in two directions.
Wilkinson said the neighborhood has dealt with problems of drugs, guns and people fighting in the past but never anything that involved race. Since May 17, he has witnessed five incidents of groups either fighting or crowding the area in the neighborhood, he said.

Subj: “kill all the white people” in Peoria !
The racial discord manifested from the policies of failed Communist wealth red-distribution are exploding in our nation. If it can happen in Peoria it can happen anywhere in this nation. The incredible lies Barack Obama has told the nation have exaggerated the disappointment and disillusionment that the Democrat (American Communist Party) has wrought upon minorities, the elderly and frail and the inexperienced youth of America to buy votes.
They believed the decades of lies about Socialist Security being there as a safety net for them. They sold themselves into state sponsored indentured servitude to buy a college education in a nation that has no good jobs due to high taxes and regulation. They will spend much of their lives paying for it. The believed that Obama would make them wealthy. When asked where the money would come from many said, “his stash”, thus expressing how ignorant they are of how the world works and how corrupt Obama and his Communist friends are. As the truth comes out they are angry at everyone for the big lies. They saw in Obama their best hope, assuming that he was “one of them” in their own words and believing he would “take from the wealthy who had stolen from them and the poor” and redistribute it in a “progressive way” that would lead to “social justice”
What it has led to is dissolution and despair. Caring liberals have elected a fraud, a false prophet, who is destroying the nation and the very people they claimed to want to help. Wealth redistribution and social justice are nothing more than thievery and vote buying cloaked in nice sounding sound bites. Those who think otherwise are either seriously naive or as corrupt as Obama.
If this cancer spreads violence and destruction are headed your way soon. Obama and his radical Communist friends must be stopped as soon as possible. Tell Congress no increase in the debt ceiling without 2 to 1, or 3 to 1, cuts in spending. Hold that line no matter what. Cut off his money and you will stop this traitor. 2012 may be too late.

This eye-witness account is from Paul Wilkinson, president of the Altamont Park Neighborhood Association:
Tonight, around 11 p.m., a group of at least 60-70 African American youth marched down one of the side streets (W. Thrush) to the 4 lane main drag (Sheridan). They were yelling threats to white residents. Things such as we need to kill all the white people around here. They were physically intimidating anyone calling for help from the police. They were surrounding cars. Cars on the main drag had to slam on their brakes to either avoid the youth blocking not only all four lanes, but a large section of the side street as well. fights were breaking out among them. They were rushing residents who looked out their doors, going on to porches, yelling threats to people calling the police for help.
Cars were doing U turns on the streets just to avoid the mob, mostly male. One youth stated his grandfather was white and several assaulted him on the spot. One police officer answered the call. The youth split into two large groups, one heading north, the other south. They were also yelling racial threats to the police officer but he was outnumbered. Another police car did not show up until after the youth finally dispersed and the patty wagon (van) also eventually showed up.
Residents are very shaken, both black and white alike. This is the fifth large mob action in about a month with smaller groups of 10-12 are out threatening children and adults a few evenings a week or later into the night. The times vary, even occuring during the day. In talking to the police officer, they are short staffed. Residents were advised to simply keep inside and to lock their doors. In other words buckle down, it’s not even safe to sit on your porch or go into your yards.
