NEW ORLEANS -- A well-known New Orleans musician is hospitalized and unconscious after being jumped in the French Quarter.
Doug Potter's family and friends believe he may have been a target of the "knock out" game.
"Always here when we needed him. Really nice man," said Chef Rick Tyler of Cafe Beignet.

No, when you defend yourself, then you’re “hunting poor black kids for sport”.
“Google” is now a verb...
And the blacks wonder why every non-black is becomming more and more prejudiced against them.

Blanket statements do not serve the discourse well.
Fomenting racial unrest is one of the many strategies the leftist is using to bring down our civil society.
The people you describe are a certain segment. The black people that I encounter in my small town would definitely not think these knock-out attacks a good idea.
Exactly. These vermin don’t even come up to you and say “stick ‘em up” like garden variety vermin, They sneak up from your blind side and attack. How do you defend yourself against savage animals who do this?
In CO if you are reasonably in fear for your life or great bodily harm - or even that of another third party you witness being attacked - you can use deadly force. So it does not matter what the liberal MSM believes, the law states we are within our rights to protect ourselves from vicious attacks.
Think back to the Zimmerman trial where they tried to convince America that having your skull repeatedly bashed into a sidewalk wasn't life threatening and Zimmerman wasn't justified.
Yeah, that would have been knee-slapping funny if they hadn't been so serious about it. The notion that we should leave our fate, our very lives, in the hands of a criminal and count on his/her good intentions... Truly laughable.
It will behoove us to remember incidents like this in the future. Guaranteed.
Yes. Everyone should familiarize themselves with the particulars several cases where someone was attacked, beaten, and later died. Then if the worst case happens and you are attacked and defend yourself with deadly force... If it comes to a trial or even questioning by police you make sure you get it on record "Why I was afraid I'd be killed like xyz in Florida...or pdq in New York. Those poor folks were beaten to death...Of course I was in fear for my life when that punk attacked me."
True - I’m not hearing much about these attacks any longer, even on Fox.
I’ll just say it straight out-I am racially profiling. Young or thuggishly dressed blacks, single or in groups, including females, I don’t go near, or in the vicinities where they are. In th case of these kinds of attacks, how else can you protect yourself? Even if you carry, by the time they’ve sneaked up and sucker-punched you, it’s too late. The only protection is to completely avoid them and the places they are.
... and has been for years.
I was making a joke -- proving, I guess, that at least one of us needs a better sense of humor.
I join in your excellent prayer.
A very good case for concealed carry. Hopefully you would get the chance to defend Yourself.
Yes, I am relieved that these things don’t really happen.
My best wishes and prayers for Mr. Potter and his family.
May the black degenerate who did this get what he deserves.
I suspect many are getting darn tired of reading this type story and at some point there will be push back. It won't be pretty.
There's that possibility of course but it's far more likely we will find ourselves having another George Zimmerman type case(s) in this country and we need to be prepared for the media blitz. The big picture here is that while the court system is trying the defendant, the lapdog leftist media is trying our self defense laws in the court of public opinion and, thereby, attempting to undermine our right to self defense and our second amendment rights.
The internet has the power to shut the media's offense down. That's what I believe anyways.
“Surely the NOLA police realize that this is very bad for business and tourism. So hopefully when they identify the individuals involved, they will go old school on them.”
Actually, they just tell the media to quit reporting them. Problem solved.
IN NOLA ?
Home of the sleeping policeman ?
don’t let anyone remain behind you if you can help it. If you know someone(s) is/are behind you, jay walk across the street or otherwise take a route that they have no business taking unless they’re up to no good. If they follow you, you know it’s game time; turn around, look them in the eyes, get angry and evil, and prepare to draw your weapon and shoot, move, and communicate.
NOLA-home of policemen (and policewomen!) who commit armed robbery!
"I have it on good authority that if you type "Google" into Google, you can break the Internet."
Well at least he wasn’t out holding up a restaurant! Google Antoinette Frank-it’s a horrible tale.
