When one or several of the colored kids get shot by someone carrying a concealed weapon, he will just be another poor innocent black kid just like Travon Martin.

Hate to tell you but you can be carrying but when someone drills you from behind, your gun won't help. That's the point of the attack. Also, they, the victims, aren't just the meek or whatever, when you get hit that hard without warning, you're going down. Period! Not to mention, they won't be alone, usually three to ten.

We all know who is doing this...yet we're not allowed to speak of them or blame them...we've bee so snookered. Time to wake up people.

Quite the opposite. It is a term that I haven't heard for 40 or so years. Perhaps the original user of the term is trying to stir the pot or actually is older than I!!

Oh, good grief! Comparing these thugs to the Travon Martin incident is ridiculous! Saying that we're not allowed to mention that these thugs are black and the victims are white is unspeakable?

There's a HUGE difference between a young man walking home and feeling intimidated and being shot and someone coming up and bashing an innocent victim over the head and getting shot (if this ever can/does occur). I sincerely doubt there would be much of an outcry if that happened. What makes it dangerous is that it would be just as easy to shoot an innocent young, black male who came towards you because you thought he MIGHT be ready to knock you out -- then it becomes another Travon Martin incident. That I can see happening.

And I have yet to see a report that doesn't specifically say it is done by young, black males and the victims are always of another race. So, how are we being snookered?

These are ugly, random acts of violence. I'm not sure there is a way to stop them. Most of the punks who do this have no fear of jail; they rarely expect to live past the age of 25, so not much to scare them into stopping. BTW -- the more attention that is given to these acts, the more likely they are to escalate and, sooner or later, white teens will follow suit. Ugly, but true.

It's not racially motivated as there are many white neo nazi groups that practice the same game. The press chooses not to report them. Think about it. Just because Fox reports it, it doesn't mean it's factual or not biase.

In my opinion. that didn't bear repeating.

Redwitch...You are fairer than I ever thought.

If you could just view those M's in a more kindly light, you would be perfect.

But I love you anyway.

By the way, I think Harry is getting too fat. Now WHAT do I do?

I just saw on the news they were talking about these attacks and a man in Michigan shot a black kid who hit him and didn't knock him out. The black kid gave an interview from jail. It didn't say if the shooter was charged.

If it's the piece I saw, shooter wasn't charged since the kid stuck a tazer (?) gun in the man's side but it didn't penetrate the man.

Kid said he was sorry he did it, it was stupid and he was just trying to hang with his peers. Now the kid has a hole in him and a record, dumber than dumb.
