Knockout game payback.

Dude got what he deserved. I thought it was fake because he should have been able to get up after the girl was beating him till I played it again and saw the guy plant his foot right in the guy's face. Something definitely snapped when he connected.

Saw this earlier. Instant karma is a real bitch.

I am just wondering when the proponents of this "game" start getting charge with a hate crime as it appears that finding a white victim must be one of the rules.

Cleanup in front of the jewelry store.

i don't get it, the person taking the video knew what was going down before it happened?

And LOL at the oblivious person on Segway speeding by

I thought the exact same thing. I was wondering if he was friends with the guy getting his shit kicked in and just decided not to help or say anything especially after he was outnumbered.

LOL @ another case of "keep it real goes wrong".

She should have kicked him in the nuts a few times.

 

[rudeguy]

bet he won't do that again

If so...he could be charged with a felony assault. You could argue a sucker punch on a much smaller person near the facial area could reasonably cause serious physical injury.

Her reactions to stop the threat are reasonable.

The dude kicking him in the face (although the guy deserved every cubic foot of force), could be charged with a misdemeanor assault....but I suppose he could argue that he felt it was the only way necessary to eliminate the threat.


That's why he didn't stick around :sneaky:

What did you expect? This is a cowards game.

I don't know where you learned law but I am curious to find out.

Payback with interest!

The guy just attempted to assault her, I am sure he would have a very good defense.

 

[HomerJS]

Guy had it coming.

Notice conservative post found it necessary to title artice "black man" and the same time just "woman" for victim. If I don't have the eyesight to see the guy is black how can I read the article??

 

[mizzou]

The guy just attempted to assault her, I am sure he would have a very good defense.

Oh don't think I don't completely agree. In fact, you could argue additionally that if he didn't do so, there is a likelihood that the assaulting guy would have left and sucker punched someone else.

But a defense attorney would jump over the fact that his "client" placed himself submissively on the ground before being kicked in the head.



Also...where is the press released story on this? Wondering if she was actually hit or if it was a purse snatching that may have looked like a "knockout game"attempt

 

[Theb]

Wow that was a solid kick. I have to think he would be running away at the end if he was in any condition to do so.

The "Knockout Game" is a hoax. People have been committing random assaults for the past few hundred years in this country. Putting a catchy name to it and claiming it's only the black people doing it is just race baiting. This is no different than "wilding", the lights out game, "Buck fifty", or Halloween gang murder sprees. This tripe is meant to reinforce people's racial stereotypes. The media comes up with a new one ever few years.

And in the end we find out that some stories are completely made up. Others use it to cover up domestic violence. Same old same old.

The Five Du-Tones told everyone to shake their tail feathers in 1967, but apparently Miley Cryus invented twerking in 2013. Jack Dempsey coined the term 'sucker punch' in 1947 but apparently that was reinvented this year as well.

Where's your Snopes link regarding the "Knockout Game" being some kind of hoax to reinforce racial stereotypes? BTW you forgot "Beat Whitey Night".

There are definitely a few clear incidents of it happening, but the problem is that it sells newspapers, so suddenly every time someone gets mugged or attempted-mugged in a nation of hundreds of millions, it gets reported as "ANOTHER KNOCKOUT-GAME ATTEMPT!!!"

Remember when "all the kids" were sacrificing to Satan a decade or two ago, and the whole nation was sure to collapse? Or the shark attack "spree" a few summers ago, despite the actual number of shark attacks being down that year? All it takes is one or two incidents of a real thing happening (and often not even that) for the media to gin up an panicky epidemic. They're usually not even pushing an agenda per se (ex. shark attacks), but sometimes that sells more papers, so all the better - that's where playing to people's racial expectations/biases comes into play most often. It allows people to cluck their tongues, shake their heads, and sigh about kids these days and those lazy, violent 'other' people letting this nation go to hell.

Snopes doesn't have it, but USAToday does.

If I tried to hyperlink to every black-people-gonna-beat-the-white-people hoaxes made up in the past 200 years, my fingers would cramp and fall off. I'm sure some of you would like that too

You can buy it in book form if you want. Thanks to the American entrepreneurial spirit, there is always someone willing to sell you the boogeyman you need to complete your world-view.

Wow, that's a pretty content-free post. If you're trying to be the sugarless gum of them forum, be my guest. But don't expect me to respect your opinion if you can't get past the zero-calorie mark.

Yawn...

from your own link

"We're trying to determine whether or not this is a real phenomenon," the news organization quotes New York police commissioner Raymond Kelly as saying. "I mean, yes, something like this can happen. But we would like to have people come forward and give us any information they have."

So they are trying to determine if its a phenomenon and are investigating multiple instances of it, but its a hoax?

Investigating multiple reports of it. I know about a half dozen people whose cousin's friend got his kidney cut out when he was left in a bathtub of ice, too. Better start a special wing of the FBI.

An op-ed piece that uses no numbers to decry other articles. Yah.. great refutation piece there. Not saying your op-ed article is right or wrong, it's just a horrible link to use for your case.

What I laughed over the most in that article was this little bit right here:

where the attacks have been reported say the knockout game is an urban myth, and that attacks that have received recent attention in the media have been random assaults

That one line is golden self ownage in a way. No shit that the "knock out game" is random assaults. Fucking DUH!
