Knowing that this will not upset folks on here as much as George Zimmermans personal life, and knowing that there will be no talk show host holding demonstrations, allow me to share.
Surprise! Media finally wake up to Knockout Game
This article details attacks in 13 different cities giving the vicious nature of these attacks, each giving names, etc....if you really honestly care about racial crime, you will read it.
But please note..
"Anyone looking at the hundreds and hundreds of examples – many on video – knows this: The victims can be white. Or Asian. Or women. Or homosexual. But this much they have in common: All of attackers in the Knockout Game are black.
A St. Louis writer, activist and boxing coach talks about the Knockout Game in his video blog. He says police ignore many Knockout Game assaults because they make the city look bad.The perpetrators are black and the victims are not, he says. But the boxing coach knows why:
Most of the people who get beat up are vegans, gays, artists, non-violent types. Many are kids from the suburbs or recent immigrants. People who are not prepared to defend themselves. There are white neighborhoods – blue collar, middle class neighborhoods – where these folks will not go because they know that people there are willing to defend themselves."
I recall the weeping and gnashing of teeth in Sanford, and it was a sad case made simply horrible by certain folks, but this just goes unnoticed and I cannot help but wonder why that is
I am pretty sure that this will not get close to the views and posts from Sanford, and probably will have less than the continual pummeling of Zimmerman. I am not a defender of his, but I am someone who thinks we have twisted badly the color blindness of the legal system.
