A single mom brutally beaten by a mob in Cincinnati has seen her community rally around her with over $200,000 raised for her recovery. Holly, still battered and bruised, broke her silence this week to apologize she’s had to share details about her attack. Viral video shows multiple black men surrounding her and a man, punching them until they collapsed to the ground. Blood streamed from her face as thugs kicked her while she lay helpless.
The mother shared disturbing photos of her still-swollen eyes and yellow bruises during a social media update. “I’m still recovering from very bad brain trauma,” she said tearfully. Supporters flooded her with donations to cover medical bills and time off work—proof good Americans won’t abandon their own. This outpouring of support stands in stark contrast to cities plagued by indifference to violent crime.
Legal action moved swiftly against suspects like Montianez Merriweather and Dekyra Vernon, charged with felonious assault. Defendants claim racial slurs sparked the melee, but prosecutors have not confirmed the incident involves hate crime charges. Conservatives warn against letting leftist narratives excuse violent behavior—mob attacks don’t deserve victimhood status no matter the reason.
Cincinnati police praised witnesses who recorded the attack and flagged authorities. “Legally recorded evidence helped us make arrests,” officials said. This contrasts with cities where “defund the police” policies leave victims hung out to dry. Law-abiding citizens deserve protection, not hand-wringing about criminals’ motives.
The single mom’s thank-you video ended with a heartfelt message to donors: “You’ve brought back my faith in humanity.” Watchdogs note similar incidents often get buried when victims aren’t the “right” identity groups. But Holly’s story proves Americans still care—no matter what activists say.
Meanwhile, media still ignores attacks on minority groups. In India, 20 Christian families were beaten by Hindu nationalist mobs during a Mathernal district attack earlier this year. Shouldn’t all violence merit the same outrage? Conservatives ask where the “woke” cheerleaders are for persecuted believers.
Holly’s case shows violence isn’t political—it’s moral. This wasn’t “peaceful protest” but barbaric lawlessness. The right response? Swift justice and community compassion, not navel-gazing about systemic issues. Bad apples get prosecuted, good neighbors get defended.
As Holly continues healing, her supporters send one clear message: We won’t let innocent victims twist in the wind. This grassroots fundraiser proves real America hasn’t forgotten what’s right. Prayers and practical help—is there any higher patriots’ priority?
