Diluting this issue by researching “since the beginning of time..” is just silly. The present issue is the modern day phenomenon of sucker punching people for fun. The issue seems to have begun a couple of months ago, not in 249 B.C.

I concur. If they want to show a time history of how the racial component of this form of violence has changed over time, that’s one thing, but it’s downright deceptive to include data from 20 years ago and then say “it has been going on a lot longer, and it is less racial, than people think”. Why, it’s almost like the authors of the study are trying to obfuscate the present situation.

Lamestream Media just started “investigating” BOW crimes like Polar Bear Hunting.

The violence has been occurring for many years.

I think it sounds like a more violent version of the UK “Happy Slapping” game - starting in 2005 according to wiki -

The use of smart phones is almost required, so going way back is useless like you say.

They’re trying to prevent you from seeing the obvious. Most of these incidents have taken place on the watch of the post racial, great uniter president. The frequency of the incidents has been increasing since his second term began.

My understanding is that the higher rates of black violence was the basis for why segregation in the South and Eugenics on the left.

In 249 B.C. an African (Punic) fleet knocked out a Roman fleet off the coast of Sicily. Not really a case of the knockout game—the gods were mad at the Romans because the consul, Publius Claudius Pulcher, had thrown the sacred chickens into the sea.
