Bonehead Daren Abbey wasn’t even from Bayview, Idaho, but he felt he could tell a black man that his drunk ass encountered at a bar there that his kind was not welcome in town. Marlon Baker did leave however, but Abbey followed him. So the 46-year-old Baker put the 28-year-old Abbey to sleep. With one punch. And wasn’t hurt in the rather short encounter. Abbey, who missed the thing on the back of Baker’s T-shirt indicating he was a boxing champion from Spokane, Washington (you know, where boneheads tried to bomb a Martin Luther King, Jr Day parade route this year) is now facing charges of battery plus years of non stop ridicule from people of color, antifa and just about everyone else who will take a look at this mugshot and say two things that we have always said: “This is why we call them boneheads” and “Hate has consequences!”

A neo-Nazi skinhead, with a body covered in racist tattoos, is in jail under $75,000 bond on felony malicious harassment charges because he didn’t read the back of a T-shirt worn by a man he’s accused of assaulting.
The skinhead, identified as Daren C. Abbey (right), 28, formerly of Sacramento, Calif., is accused of verbally confronting and then assaulting Marlon L. Baker, a 46-year-old African American, inside a Bayview, Idaho, bar on July 3, authorities said Friday.
Not wanting a confrontation, Baker left the bar and walked toward a marina on Lake Pend Oreille about 9 p.m. Sunday to watch an Independence Day “boat parade” on the waterfront, said Kootenai County Sheriff’s Major Ben Wolfinger. “He didn’t want trouble, so he walked away,’’ Wolfinger said.
But the racist skinhead followed Baker out of the bar, confronting him again with racial slurs before finally pushing him with witnesses watching, the sheriff’s official said.
Fearing for his own safety at that point, Baker took one punch, striking the skinhead in the face and knocking him to the ground, unconscious, Wolfinger said. There were several witnesses who saw the incident and verified Baker’s version of events, according to reports by deputies.
Deputies and an ambulance responded.
When he regained consciousness, Abbey was arrested and booked into jail on charges of battery, a misdemeanor, and felony malicious harassment. Baker was not injured and not charged, Wolfinger said.
The sheriff’s official described Abbey as a “white supremacist” who has numerous tattoos, including at least three Nazi swastikas, and other racist symbols on his arms, neck and torso.
Abbey was treated for a possible broken nose after being booked into the Kootenai County Jail, where he remained on Friday, pending trial.
As he was being led away in handcuffs, Abbey apparently was finally able to see the backside of the T-shirt Baker was wearing. It said, “Spokane Boxing Club champion.”
Rick Welliver, the owner of Spokane Boxing, said to his knowledge Baker has never been a licensed, professional boxer, but may have had some informal boxing experience.
“I’m happy Marlon finally won a fight, but he’s not a boxer,” Welliver said when told about the incident.
