Auburn Dad Knocked Out By Stranger at Celtics Game
Union Leader ^ | April 18, 2015 | Jason Schreiber

Barry Hammer didn’t know what hit him.

A night out at a Celtics game with his wife and twin boys on Tuesday turned into a nightmare when he was punched in the face by a total stranger for no apparent reason. “I’ve never been punched in my life,” said the 38-year-old Auburn dad who’s still stunned by what happened in the mezzanine area of Boston’s TD Garden during his kids’ first Celtics game.

Hammer said he believes he was likely the victim of a so-called “knockout game.” The game has been seen around the country and involves attackers who sucker punch random people for a laugh.

But neither Hammer nor his wife and 10-year-old boys were laughing when he was knocked unconscious and left with a black eye, several cuts, bleeding on his brain, and a bump on the back of his head. Hammer said the incident happened when his family decided to leave the game at the end of the third quarter. It was a school night and he and his wife, Lisa, wanted to get the kids home for bed.

They stopped to use the restrooms before leaving....

Well, on the surface that is true. And under the surface it is true also. However, the Whites allowed the self hating Whites to impose political correctness and “civil Rights”, whatever that is upon them . The result of that is should a White happens to successfully defend themselves against an attack from a Black, the law enforcement apparatus jumps upon them with both feet and they are prison bound. if they are not successful in defending or chose not to defend themselves, they are buried. Either way they lose. Therefore, the best thing to do is to stay away from the zoo and if worse comes to worse, do as your conscience dictates and hope for the best.

The article dances around the real reason without ever mentioning it. Predictable.

in reality, they do it because whites are generally weak, especially the men....sorry, that's just the way I see it....

by and large, we have a couple of generations of wimpy white men....

and by weak, I don't mean physically....I mean mentally and emotionally......they seem to like to play the martyr and its sickening...

I’ve always done that; with few exceptions, I don’t go anywhere that doesn’t have at least a 25:1 ratio. If there are young thugs around, make it 50:1.

Agreed.

Liberal white men are conditioned to accept defeat.

The rest of us, I don’t think the world really wants to see what would be unleashed if they piss us off to a point we can’t be stopped.

“Whites shouldn’t have to avoid going ANYWHERE in their own d*** country.”

And when we get Constitutional Carry, they won’t. There’ll be some initial bloodletting, then things will settle down.

How do you get to be 38 years-old without ever being punched?

I’m waiting for one of these thugs to try it on someone with a firearm.

...

A firearm won’t help against an ambush.

...

A man in Miami was killed a few months ago by a similar incident. Hitting his head on the floor was fatal.
