it's race based anger.

Not entirely. Maybe in New York City where black crime against Jews has a long-standing "tradition". In other places where this has happened, it seems that someone perceived as weaker than the attacking teen is chosen.

I have long wondered what the effect of some of these video games might be having on the younger members of our population. I've seen some fairly graphic scenes of violence advertised as part of some video game. After all, a sort-of video game has been used for hears with drivers training courses and flying lessons to train people in how to react, or to fly, etc. So why wouldn't children's minds be affected by the constant playing of violent videos games? The increasing use of guns by teens and earlier ages must have come from somewhere. Previous generations of children didn't do all these shootings that we've seen in recent years.

Good.

It's about time that someone like Rev. Sharpton condemn this practice. I must say that I'm surprised. He usually only makes newsworthy comments when it's a possible discriminatory act against blacks.

are there any reports on the knockout game where the perp wasn't black or the victim was?

[workpublic]

Without Al Sharpton's strong voice, it is likely that the media blackout on this devastating trend would continue. Hopefully, it can now be addressed.

the MSM is that much in the bag?

Sharpton is giving the timid mainstream media permission to report the fact that this game is overwhelmingly perpetrated by young black males, a fact that has been dutifully under-reported until now.

the MSM is now controlled by fraudulent, racist race baiters?

From what I've read, only the NYC attacks have a racial context.

[workpublic]

ok

from what I've read it's the same everywhere. i'll have to do some research.

There's already a couple of threads started about the Knockout Game craze. One of them, just three down from this thread:

The same way I protect myself from other crimes.



There is no 100%, but I prefer increasing my odds.

Personally, I'd rather use pepper spray or mace.

That looks like my Ruger, AGB. I've also got a Kimber with a pink grip. Both fit nicely into a handbag.

I've only ever used them for target shooting, but they're accurate - and small - that's all one needs if one wants a cc permit for protection.

Ruger sr9c? I've tried it in my purse... just not liking the feel of it, so I just carry it on me now. It's my only pistol... for now anyway.

I was standing in line at the service counter at Wally World.  A 20 something came walking by yaking yabbidy on his cell phone.  It wasn't the talking but the cell phone cover had a pair of brass knuckles attached which he showed off. 

Uneasy me saw him not once but 4 times.  I decided he was store security practicing on a gramma with large, clear storage boxes.  I would rather not practice in RL open hand defense.  It's a day ruiner.

Now where is that long corsage pin?  Yes, it is a defense weapon that will stab through a thick coat.  Recommended by the local PD.

Whatever works.

My experiences have taught me that I don't do well up close and personal, so I prefer to keep my distance.

It looks like their firearms "breed" like the magazines on my table.

And just like that, my own personal arsenal looks subpar.

OMG.  I would love to have that supply to resell.  Legal store front, of course.

Some people's wealth is not counted in dollars but in supplies.

My aunt is collecting silver against the end of the world. I collect bullets.    I feel better with that currency. Throwing coins at perps doesn't do much for me.
