The police almost always try to deny that their incident is part of the larger "knockout game," especially in the bigger cities. And how about that description of the alleged perpetrator, huh?

METRO Police Chief Victor Rodriguez says he doesnt think the attacks are related to the so-called knockout game.Oh, well, that makes me feel better. Good thing he's on the case.

Well, punch the bastard back, and make sure he takes a bite out of the third rail. Problem solved. That's how we should be fixing it.

"Houston METRO police need your help apprehending a man who is punching people on a rail platform."Odd that the KBXX-FM(Houston News92) article urgently requests help in ID-ing the perp--but no descriptive hint or help whatsoever is supplied by KBXX-FM--even though News92's very article describes the existence of a surveillance video that begs for a link in the search for the puncher.
Could KBXX-FM be holding back on that link out of PC delicacy?
No problem for the NY Daily News.
It offers a crystal clear view of the violent offender--no apologies necessary.

Our so-called “justice system” protects thugs like this. This thug and thugs like him wouldn’t be a problem if we were allowed to deal with them. He needs to be weeded out of society.

The poLIcE deny that there IS a knockout game then proclaim that there is some kind of handbook of RULES for the knockout game.
Same as Islamist terrorism isn’t TERRORISM unless the terrorist is a card carrying member of an officially recognized terrorist group AND the organization issues an official press release taking responsibility, typically issued from their DC bureau office...

Perhaps this is someone’s “practice training” for the knockout game.
Does it at least register as a “hate crime” on the LBGT mayor’s list of human rights abuses in Houston? She’s working on some kind of tranny protection act while letting things like this get swept under the rug. She didn’t give a damn when two hispanic yutes pulled a gun on me and called me nigger repeatedly either.

First rule of knock out game is never talk about knock out game.

That’s where I get on to go home everyday (unless they’re talking about the northbound platform, though the northbound “Preston” platform is a block up from Preston). I did see an evidently homeless guy walk past on the sidewalk last week, angrily babbling something while I was waiting for the train. Might be a likely candidate.

-— And, therefore, in the knockout game, you typically do that in front of an audience or in front of somebody whos at least taping it. -—
That must bring great comfort to the victim.

Despite these events, Rodriguez says Houston has one of the safest rail systems in the country. This for the toy train that's had AT LEAST 100 wrecks in its first year !!!
