It looks like there have been marching orders from above for leftist media outlets (which is most of them) to pretend that the Knockout Game trend (and other similar "teen" violence) is all just a figment of the Conservative, racist imagination.

"Nothing to see here. Move along."

It’s not a trend, but stories about it are only just recently popping up. It was always happening before! < /s>

The Left will stop at nothing to create their illusions.

I was attacked by a mob of black kids one time at the LA county fair. I was just walking along minding my own business when suddenly I was surrounded by about 20 black kids. I didn’t think much of it at first until I realized I was in the middle of them and one from behind me sucker punched me. They then surrounded me and some of them chided the older ones to hit me. I stood my ground and stared down the biggest one, basically daring him to try it. It worked because they backed off at that point. I’m positive I was a target only because I was white and I was in an area where there wasn’t a lot of people around. This pack of little thugs were obviously going around the fair repeating this to other innocent people.

This happened to me in the late 60s. That’s right, 50 or so years ago. So this kind of crap has been going on a long, long time.

Knockout game, Life imitaing Art?

"There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening. The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence."

Actually, I think the existence of Slate is a myth.

[Rinnwald]

I’m not sure I understand Slate’s reasoning. The knockout game doesn’t exist because witness accounts for one instance varied from “dozens to hundreds”? Then no crime exists, because there will always be variability in eyewitness accounts under duress. Sounds like better crowd estimates than MSNBC does at the mall in Washington D.C, anyway.

I also like their snide super-plus-good-not-racist implication that (white) Milwaukie residents can’t be trusted because it’s “the most segregated city in the country”. Nice to see what passes for liberal logic.

[BFM]

Not so, Libtards...

It’s not real until it happens to a liberal journalist.

[Obadiah]

Great. So when these kids start getting ventilated it will still be one big mythical joke right? Good.

Knockout Game perp + CCW permit holder = dead perp and improvement in societal gene pool.

[Organic Panic]

It’s not a knock out game. It is Obama yutes redistributing the divirsity of the inner cities.

[Vince Ferrer]

The author has to be read very carefully. The author is not denying that knockout games exist, she is denying that there is a trend that it is getting worse. She is correctly calling out the media for claiming that this is a new trend, because it isnt. The media is calling it a new trend so that they don’t have to explain why they weren’t covering it before. This still doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. So relax, you are not getting beaten up more than usual.

[arthurus]

It is a myth until the Slate guy gets punched down on the street. Then it becomes a reality for him but he won’t discuss it.

[tuffydoodle]

Aren’t quite of few of these attacks caught on video? Are they saying the videos are fake?

[AppyPappy]

Not only is it a myth, you are a racist for seeing that it happens.

[I want the USA back]

That’s how the left handles things that prove that they are wrong. They trivialize it.

[Vendome]

Never mind that I see it on tv and in print week after week...

[Eagle of Liberty]

I guess the dead would-be knockout gamers are fake too?
