Youths in St. Louis playing the knock-out game beat a gay man near the Galleria in St. Louis. The victim has a broken nose, a sore jaw and a black eye.

Too dam stupid to consider, the Fag may of had AIDs.

Ahhh didn’t realize your were talking about that. They still have the fun loving flash mobs where people dance by the way. I hate when people make something fun and then twist it.

Can we come up with a different term for those criminal acts? How about Flash Gangs?

[AppyPappy]

They won’t be charged with a hate crime. It skews the percentages too much. Hate crimes are reserved for white criminals.

I never said black racism doesn’t exist. Please do not put words in my mouth.

MO is a shall issue CCW state. One more good reason to pack.

This is what mass transit does for the county. Cheap transportation (if they pay at all) for thugs to come out and harass people. The upscale mall near this metro station has had to implement curfews and parent accompaniment rules because these kids were killing the business.

I will never vote for another Metrolink project again.

When I was 20, about 8 inner city kids tried the knock out game on me. I was lucky the guy that hit me in the face didn’t hit me head on.

I was in great shape at the time, so I began trying to throw the thugs into fast moving traffic.

I fought across the street to get to a gas station, and when I got there, the pieces of trash scattered. The gas station manager was on the phone calling the police, and then in 5 minutes the police showed up to give me a ride home.

[EyeGuy]

Absolutely correct assessment.

Ah, I remember now, you live in St. Louis.

The blacks have already destroyed the nationally known landmark Northwest Plaza, and are working on Jamestown Mall, The Galleria and West County Mall.

All aided as you say, by openly racist, free mass transit from their city hell holes.

I never voted for MetroLink. It wasn’t designed for the USE of white south/southwest county residents. We are just supposed to PAY for it.

I was outnumbered once by 6 youths to just me and my girl friend. They started coming up fast to attack us. I pulled out a little .25 pistol and pointed it at them. I didn’t even say a word. Just pointed it at them. They stopped in their tracks and ran off the other direction. In the minds of criminals and bullies, they take in the idea it could be their last minute on earth when the confront an armed citizen. And like the cowards they are, self preservation comes into play and they back off. That is why more than 2.5 million times a year armed citizens stop violent crime by just brandishing a gun. But, if you do pull out your gun, you had better be willing to use it. Otherwise you’ll die.

I like that game, but it’s better if you play the full nine holes.

Hey, I'm not going to argue with you. But having a firearm beats the hell out of not having one in in such situations...

I was jumped by about 30 teens when I was 17. I got hit once, but I refused to hit back and kept walking until they realized I wasn't going to be much sport. I think you have to treat these people like dangerous animals. If you fight back or run, it's like a trigger for them to attack.

[Ken H]

It isn't only black youths doing it.

Can you show examples where the perps are not black youths?

They do it to random people regardless of race or sexual orientation.

You switched to talking about victims there, not perps.

[GreenvillePatriot]

This article mentions white kids also playing it.

So that’s the cure for being gay.

I don’t know if this is still the case, but it used to be the honor system...and only the law-abiding actually paid (there were no conductors). I cracked up after a ballgame once where they were actually checking tickets before boarding and a HUGE crowd of Amish people quickly turned around.

I’m sure Metro will just jack up the rates to subsidize the fare theft - and once again the decent people will have to “sacrifice.”

Absolutely true.

Why do I think this won't get the same coverage as the pervert who was asked to turn her shirt inside out at Dollywood?

That story was on the rotation at Yahoo for 6 days.

Anectdotal reports of a couple of white kids who were part of a black mob does not take away the from the fact that this a black phenomenon.

Violent crime in general is a black phenomenon, even though there are white and asian perps. Go to city-data.com and look up race and crime stats for any city. A city that is under 5% black will be a very safe city. Even El Paso with an 80% hispanic population is one of the safest cities in the US. A city with a significant percentage of blacks will be a dangerous city.

I'm not saying there are no exceptions to this rule, but I haven't found one yet.

[TheBattman]

Yes, I do. AT one time the term “flash mob” referred to groups that assembled in public places, usually to perform in some way. But the term has expanded to include the violent assembly of mostly youth who are committing horrible crimes:
