New 'knockout game' incidents leave US residents terrified

New incidents of the so-called “knockout game,” where “players” walk up to strangers and sucker punch them in the face, renewed fears among New York and Pennsylvania residents that the cruel prank was making a comeback.

Two separate incidents in New York City and Pittsburgh reported last week showed a woman and man being knocked out. The 43-year-old man was pummeled near the Shake Shack in Brooklyn’s DUMBO neighborhood about 9:15 p.m. Thursday, the New York Post reported. The unidentified attacker then snapped a photo of himself with the injured man before fleeing the scene.

A woman in Pittsburgh was also the victim of a “knockout” incident caught on surveillance video more than a month ago, KDKA reported Friday. The unidentified man kicked the woman’s leg and punched her in the face before walking away. Instead of helping the injured woman on the ground, passersby then snapped a photo of her.

I've noticed the so-called "Knockout Game" is not big in areas where Concealed Carry is lawful.

Strange that...

Why is black on white crime a “game” and white on black crime “hate”?

Also in neighborhoods where there is virtually no “diversity!” Where there are no ribs or tacos, or goat meat, it’s surprisingly quiet.

I am not too happy that Congress-critter John Lewis thinks that Hillary Clinton is Madame President (recent article).

Well, Hillary Clinton is a Madame President, then that is why I call John Lewis (of Georgia) a Congress-critter.

Since Nancy Pelosi is a CINO (Catholic in Name Only) and fan of killing babies, she is also a Congress-critter.

It’s not a “game” it’s assault, attempted murder, and sometimes even murder.

Try it with me or my family and we’ll be playing the “Shoot the Thug” game.

Maybe it’s illegal for concealed-carry firearm in these cities. I would at least carry a stiletto switchblade or pepper spray.

Most of these incidents are being perpetrated by black children. God forbid, we are able to tell the truth in this country anymore. That must mean we are racists.

Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6.
