I was, just yesterday morning, pondering on the type of summer we might see. Where i live, people are avoiding the downtown area after dark and all of the parks because of the new Amish game, “Knockout”. With luck we’ll see this thing spin hopelessly out of control in a spiral escalation into daily scenes of flash mob violence in Chicago and other metro areas.
The “Amish” have their knockout game,but the folks inmy neighborhood have a game too.It’s called “run and gun”,and some of us are real good at it.
Don’t know where you live, but here in Indianapolis that is becoming the case. For years the big downtown merchants and the city fathers were able to talk the media into not reporting what going on downtown at the big mall and other places like the Circle, but the problem has gotten so much bigger and more violent they can’t hide it anymore. Gang retaliation shootings along the canal walk, violence at the CC Mall, random acts of violence against people leaving resturants etc. have become the norm. It is now moving out to the malls on the edges of town. Just had a killing at one a couple of weeks ago and a near riot and shooting across the street from one of the others. I can’t speak for other cities, but in Indy the Bla ..... uh Amish youth problem is getting out of control.
