Sick and Horrifying New Game Teenagers Play "For Fun" Called "Knock Out" (Read 8049 times)

Bunker

This ignorant so called game shitbags play in the inner-cities has been around for awhile but seems to be getting more press lately. I did read an article awhile back of punks playing this game with the wrong person and getting shot...as it should be. This is Ghetto mentality at its finest....

According to the report, teenagers play a sick game called "knock out," which requires either a large group of people or individuals to attack someone on the street to see if they can "knock them out." One man who was interviewed about the "game" said the victim can be anyone, including a woman and her young children. "You just knock them out, hit them with a blow and take their belongings," a teenager with a blurred face says.
Police believe "knock-out" led to the death of a homeless man in Hoboken, New Jersey which is right across from New York City. Read more: http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2013/11/12/the-sick-new-game-teenagers-play-called-knock-out-n1745113

This has been going on for a few years. Have you heard of "polar bear hunting"?

These punks all deserve to be shot in the face.
Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

Blind sucker punching an unsuspecting participant regardless of comparative age, gender, weight, or ability standards is macho ?  :wtf:

I know a new game we can "play".   ;)

The game was called "point 'em out, knock 'em out," and it was as random as it was brutal.

The object: Target an innocent victim for no other reason than they are there, then sucker punch him or her.

But on this day in Lansing, there would be no punch. The teen-age attacker had a stun gun. He did not know his would-be victim was carrying a legally concealed pistol.

The teen lost the game.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!!

My question is: where are jesse jackson and al sharpton now?

They're waiting for some innocent, armed person to protect themselves from thugs like this.

Once someone fights back, the ever so vigilant Jesse and Al will spring into action and tell the world what a racist world we live in.

I'll admit I'm racist. I'm against anyone that is willing to attack an innocent person or family.

Whether black, white, brown or green.

I guess I'm racist against everyone.

Oh well.

Damn, you can see it now.

Young Black Guy approaches and swings, connects but doesn't knock Older White Guy out.
Older White Guy has CCW. Draws and defends himself from second attempt at knock out.  Shoots Young Black Guy.

JJ and Sharpton on news decrying that Older White Guy shot poor unarmed Young Black Guy and that Older White Guy should have called the police. 

I'm not racist against anyone. I don't make decisions or judgements based on race.
But I am Prejudiced against anyone based on the way they act.

The correct term for this is "assault and battery".
It could also be called  "attempted murder"
Neither of which are "games".

I think this would be a good time to introduce the newbs to Jeff Cooper's Color Codes of Awareness.
Google the topic if you have never heard of this before.
Here is a good article about it:

Personally. I am in condition yellow all the time. It's not hard to do.

If I lived in an area that had incidents like this, I would be condition orange and packing heat all the time. CC permit or not.

Lucky we live Hawaii.

60 Year Old Woman Shoots 2 of 7 ‘Knock Out’ Attackers

Quote
Beulah Montgomery had just turned 60 the day before, when she was approached by 7 young punks playing Knock Out.
One of them hit her and a second was attempting to hit her, so she reached for her gun.
She fired 5 times and two of the young men fell down dead.   One was hit in the stomach and one in the chest.
The other five ran off after finding out their elderly victim was less than helpless.

This is one black guy that's sees it for exactly what it is. I'm sure the black community doesn't care too much for him for his candid opinion but truth hurts. He states "here's a message to white people...carry your gun, get a license to carry it in person, and if you see a group of these Negros coming near you, walking toward you, fire upon them, yep fire upon them."
