Sounds like an equal opportunity crime wave and the celebration of diversity. /sarc.

In the past few weeks, Boston has had a 9-alarm fire (2 dead firefighters), an 8-alarm fire, now these 6 unprovoked attacks, and the anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombing is just a few days away.
I'm thinking our first responders may be on edge. Who wouldn't be? I wouldn't be surprised if something goes horribly wrong around here.

The silence on the race of the attackers says a thousand words.

The lack of racial makeup of the group in the report tells me all I need to know.

I have a friend who lives in the Boston area. He sent me a newspaper column in which a white male was the attacker. The noticeable part of the article was that the two opening paragraphs — emphasis: not one but two — said “The white male...” I kid you not.

Officer Rachel McGuire, a Boston police spokeswoman, said Thursday that the department does not believe the assaults were part of a knockout game, which the department considers to be when a person is physically assaulted, but no other crime is committed against them.

Reminds me of the apes and the monolith in 2001 Space Odessey. The specter of civilization is the monolith which has the apes agitated.

Wheres Bernie Goetz when you need him?
From wikipedia:
On November 1, 2013, Goetz was arrested for allegedly selling $30 worth of marijuana to an undercover female NYPD officer in Union Square. At a December 18, 2013 court appearance he rejected a 10 day community service plea, stating "Either dismiss it, or let's take it to trial and let a jury decide". Outside court Goetz said he offered the undercover female officer the marijuana three times for free but she insisted on paying for it, and that he thought the arresting officer was trying to get him to punch him to escalate the case. At a February 20, 2014 court appearance Goetz again rejected a 10 day community service plea and called on Mayor de Blasio, among other things, to stop all marijuana arrests in NYC for a few months.
