WASHINGTON, DC - Police say they are investigating the two women punched in the head in Columbia Heights on Thursday and Friday as simple assaults. But the victims wonder if they were targets of the Knockout game.

It's a game being played by teens in some cities where groups of people attack innocent victims, with the intention of knocking them out with one sucker punch.

The most recent assault in the District occurred Thursday night. Phoebe Connolly, in town from Vermont, was riding her bike up 11th Street NW near Cardozo High School. She encountered a group of several teens standing on their bikes in the street.

When she tried to ride by, one of them punched her in the nose. A friend told Connolly it sounded like the Knockout game. Connolly googled and discovered another woman had been a victim Thursday night on 14th Street in Columbia Heights.

Fox 5 spoke to that woman, who doesn't want to be identified....

This is your key to secure your (already loaded and cocked) handgun and prepare to defend yourself.

If they act like civilized human beings you can nod or give the greeting of the day. If not, you can do society as many favors as are in your magazine....

I see a way to sucker-punch state-controlled media over this.

Somebody should create a staged video showing an old white guy playing the knockout game on an unsuspecting Trayvon, then post it on YouTube and wait for it to go viral and get national attention.

At that point the people involved should come forward and demonstrate that it was a fake video, and then ask the question "Why did state-controlled media ignore the knockout game when it was just Trayvons attacking white people?"

A Glock 32 with a full magazine is my choice.

Situational awareness is taught by me ad naseum to my kids. If you don’t pay attention to your surroundings you are a victim in waiting.
