Another Knock Out Game Fatality

[Nimrod]

This happened almost in my back yard. St. Cloud is a medium sized city about 60 miles NW of the Twin Cities.

This is not a game. It is brutal criminal assault at least and murder in this case. By calling it a game the media is making it sound like something that is almost acceptable.

It shows that part of black society has broken down to the point that racially motivated attacks by blacks on whites are considered normal. I have seen black pundits on Youtube that are decrying these attacks because the motivation of the attackers was not because ------ had enslaved their ancestors and held them down but because they were doing it for fun. It follows that these pundits believe that the attacks would be alright it the attacker's had the correct motivation.

I have never owned a slave and don't feel any guilt because some some white people once did. Before the African slaves got here they were captured by other blacks and sold into slavery. It was the white people who freed the slaves. If some of the black people want to get mad at someone for what happened 150 years ago they should get mad at other blacks.

It seems that some blacks feel that they can get away with breaking the law since Obama came into power. Aside from knockouts, there is an epidemic of mobs of kids, mostly black, that overwhelm a store and clean it out.

The only thing that will stop it is to catch these kids on video and convict them and lock them up. As long as they can misbehave with impunity they will continue to get more bold. I do think that the victims of knockouts have a right to use whatever means of self defense they have on hand, including deadly force.

I think there is something that will stop it a lot quicker than prosecution and conviction....

Gangs, etc. have had similar stuff like this for years, killing and robbing innocent people at random, but this feels a little different.
That's just a gut feeling, no scientific evidence. I would like to know if there is a hidden agenda or motivation, not as reason to defend this crime, just my own curiosity.
For instance, did this start right around the time of the Zimmerman trial, by any chance?
I'd also like to know the geographical info on this.
Of course questions like this would be a reporter's job, but they seem unable to report any valuable information lately.

I have said this before they will bring down on themselves whatever happens. there will be a point were something will change and the poor knockout artists will be in fear of there lives.

This link is from 2011, but according to the Police Detective, he recalls it starting in St. Louis around 2008. Interesting, no?

We need to stop calling it "the knock out game" and call it what it is:

Attempted Murder
Assault with a weapon
Battery

Cowardly attacks from behind.

Stop giving it cutesy tootsy names and call it what it is.

Don't accuse me of being judgemental, racist, bigotted, or prejudice when I am 'hands on the trigger' when a group of youth, especially black youth, are walking behind me.
If you don't like the 'stereo-type' do something about it.....

I remember reports of it in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia long before Zimmerman.

They seem to forget that whites are the group with all the guns. I see this continuing until a group of white folks get mad enough and start their own little game, called hangman or "coon hunting" or something. This little game of theirs is going to end up setting us back 100 years in race relations. I am not excusing what I see white folks will eventually do, but I don't think whites are just going to keep sitting by while this keeps happening. I know how it makes me feel, as a white man who grew up around black people and had many black friends growing up - I can only imagine how other folks feel who might have an already negative predisposition towards blacks.

[Darren]

They don't pick on targets that look like potential trouble. Some incidents have already ended with the attackers getting shot. Here's a recent one.

This is a hate crime, plain and simple. And it is fueling a potential race war. As such, this needs to be top priority with all law enforcement across the nation. Call your local elected officials and your local police department and let them know how you feel.

This I doubt very much.

also, a judge said white people deserve the violence for all the bad they did to the blacks. It's just come uppance.

No they blame white racist which means every white they know. It may be a mistake for them to be freed some 150 years ago if they still act like savages.

I agree this trend started before Zimmerman, there are incidents reported as far back as several years ago, there have also been several incidents in England which is where this game first started. So it's not only happening in USA and it's not always blacks that are doing it, there have been white on white and white on black attacks too.

Once this knockout game becomes declared a hate crime in all cases with the consequent punishments accorded to hate crimes I suspect the trend will loose popularity with these vicious teens.

A couple things. One, after watching the OPs video twice I never heard any identification as to the race of the attacker, even though this incident was obviously a continuation of the latest fad "knockout game". Which by the way was never mentioned either. Second, they keep calling it a "random" act of violence. It's only random in the manner of the victim being available. It's not random the victim was white.

Ignoring the motive - knock out a white person - the news people make it sound like they're flummoxed as to why this happened. If so, they're the only ones.

I don't see this stopping, but if anything increase. In this instance they picked a target who might stand a chance, but in most instances these animals pick some of the most defenseless - women, old people. Nobody can tell me there's any "honor" in this.

Things sure have changed. If I'd told my friends growing up I'd sucker punched an old lady, or for that matter a young man because of his race, they'd have beaten me to a pulp.

Some of us carry, a few times of them getting shot may send a message to others.

I think the media needs to start making a big deal out of these kinds of crimes, and also, start calling them hate crimes instead of the knock out game. They could help to change public perception if they would focus on how COWARDLY people involved in these crimes are. Embarrass the perps. Talk about how big a wussy you'd have to be to punch someone that didn't know it was coming. Spread the word that they must be the biggest kind of coward to hit a woman from behind, or to step into someone's path and hit them when they're not expecting it.
They think they're bad arsses for doing this, but the media COULD talk about it in a way that makes people look at them for the little no guts punks that they are. You know, like REAL MEN wouldn't do this.

[Nimrod]

Ozark Tom,
It has become politically incorrect for the media to identify the suspect in a crime by their race. I don't see how this helps apprehend the perp but the cops must get a description that does give the race. There were 2 girls that witnessed the assault so I suspect the cops at least arrested a suspect that is the right race.

At 3:18 of the video they get a statement from the aunt of the suspect. She is obviously black so it is good odds that the guy under arrest probably is too.

The aunt claims that the suspect was with her when the assault took place. It is almost more disturbing that there is a portion of blacks whose sympathies lead them to try to keep other blacks out of jail even when they are guilty. This is the kind of feedback these punks are getting from their community so it's no great wonder that they think what they do is alright.

[snowcap]

The media will have to recognize it when one of their own become a victim. It's gonna happen sooner or later.
