Three injured by serial 'sucker puncher' in spate of weekend attacks in Massachusetts
Daily Mail UK ^

Posted on 02/17/2014 4:05:45 PM PST by matt04

Police are searching for a man suspected of punching at least three people over the weekend in Cambridge, Massachussetts.

One of the attacks was caught on a Massachusetts Avenue furniture store's video surveillance.

The disturbing footage shows a tall man striding rapidly behind a couple on the sidewalk before coming level with them and punching the man in the side of the head.

Both the man and woman were knocked to the ground by the punch.

According to the Boston Herald, the suspect yelled, 'Oh, you think that's funny?' before punching the man, and kept walking without breaking stride after the attack.

Another man reported that the assailant walked straight up to him at around 3:30pm, mirrored his movements as he tried to get out of his way, then punched him twice in the eye.

The victim had to be treated in hospital for his injuries.

A third man told police he too had been punched in the face with no reason and gave a description matching the suspect's.

...

Police say the attacks do not appear to be an example of the so-called 'knockout game' in which people hit strangers, videotape the assault and post it online.

It pays to keep your distance from some people.

How much you want to bet puncher was Black—victim white? Looks like the old racists were right—Black men can not be trusted and will—if given a chance punch or kill any whitey they find alone. Be warned!

You know, I can see this happening already-the MSM knows that if they just continue to ignore the pattern of this, that people will eventually lose their sense of outrage over the multiple instances and begin to filter it out, because nothing is being done and it’s not being presented for what it is, a pattern of hate crime against whites.

As seem all too usual, the authorities are trying awfully hard to conclude it is not the knockout game. You need a written confession and video statements to conclude that it is black on white predation and even then, officials will try to explain it away.

The problem is that the “game” does not leave even a situationally-aware target a chance to defend (unlike most conventional muggings).

Even on “racial realism” sites, people are already beginning to burn out on the stories (always found in either foreign or local, never national American mainstream media), of repeated crimes by blacks against whites, even the atrocities. TPTB and their media lapdogs are counting on just that, defeated apathy from whites knowing that this will never be presented as the issue which it is, a pattern of crimes against whites, because they’re white.

From an Internet source.. "Cambridge is home to two of the world's most prominent universities, Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Cambridge has also been home to Radcliffe College, once one of the leading colleges for women in the United States before it merged with Harvard."

The crime has already been committed.. I am not wishing harm to anyone. I am hoping however that the victims are progressives who as is their wont condemn the rest of us as racists.

Exactly. Even for those who carry, it’s a matter of the thug sneaking up on them and sucker punching, sometimes hard enough to knock the victim unconscious or even kill them.

Can anyone believe that is a white had kidnapped a young boy and blowtorched him to death, that it would not be presented in American MSM for the atrocity it would have been, and a campaign to “stamp out racist crimes against blacks” would have been enacted?

No not at all, you see the attacker was obviously Black so there has to be some other excuse, hence mentally ill or on drugs. Now if was a White man who did this it would not only be the knockout game but also a hate crime.

Hmmm. "People"? Which kind of people? "Strangers"? What type of stranger?

It's all soooooo mysterious.

I don't wish harm on any innocent person, but these days, even getting beat or having a loved one killed doesn't impel "progressives" to finally see or admit the truth. It's astounding, but these days, even after such a crime, they still point their fingers at whites as the blame for black criminals.

Why should I have to read the DailyMail for a description of the perp? (rhetorical) Media has an obligation to the community they serve, to include details, not Omit important information that could save citizens from serious injury or death.

Of course they don't they seem more like an expression of brotherly love.
