Stupid twit: there IS a purpose for it.

Recompense for hundreds of years of oppression. By you. Against them.

Just accept the fact that you deserved it, deserved more and were let off easy. Now go be quiet and sit down like a good little white girl.

It’s a “game” that can be lethal or life damaging.

No different than the actions of a lynch mob.

The injustice department is silent.

“It’s just a local crime story, nothing to see here, move along.”

And... not all black peoples are behind the same spiritual eight ball. Ethiopia actually does pretty well considering its poverty, for one example. But the dark lands of Africa got known as such for spiritual darkness, not for the physical color of their inhabitants. Not all peoples are placed in equal circumstances by God. And God can deftly leverage 8-balls into catbird seats, through the saving power of the gospel. We were not entirely wrong to say that it did the African slaves of old some good to have been brought into a Christian society, though it would have been even better had they been evangelized and set free, maybe even sent back home to be missionaries. (We can “thank” what we know as Democrats for giving in to Satan’s dehumanizing wishes for these people from antebellum times to the present.)

Yeah, that’s right!

“Herb” was the subject of a McDonalds ad. The one guy who’d never eaten a Big Mac. If you saw him walking down the street you were supposed to drag him into the closest McDonalds and collect a free meal.

My Dad had a coworker who looked a lot like Herb. They couldn’t let him walk around outside at lunch or to/from his car alone.

In a way... it is a sort of blowback for Democrat arrogance from antebellum times till now. The whole nation is suffering. As is common in the biblical pattern even when a part has done the most wrong.

The ultimate enemy still remains the devil, not people. If the devil is driven out, the oppressed are liberated and enemies turn into friends. Still everyone has to choose whether to let the devil be driven out of their life. Love, to be love, has to be chosen. It is not the manipulations of a puppet master.

I don't know anything about any McDonald's ad. I was just relating the phrase that was used to describe a precursor to today’s “knockout game.”

Actually, it was a Burger King ad.

But iirc that was the genesis of “Herbing”. Basically, if you see a nerdy looking white guy drag him against his will into a Burger King. It evolved from there.

Studies I’ve read say a prime dividing line is language. Lack of communication creates barriers and suspicion. Many genocides are based on language. Another reason to require citizens to be able to speak English.

As for the knockout game, when law-abiding citizens can’t count on the cops to protect them, they will find their own means. I don’t think too many will just let it go and “move on.” There are many who will seek justice and if it’s not available via police or in the courts, they will find another way.

Question: If the police don’t protect us and the courts don’t administer justice, then what is their purpose? And why are we paying for them? I’m not interested in paying taxes in order to fund a police force that only serves to raise further revenue via traffic stops and to compile mounds of paperwork documenting crimes while doing nothing to solve them.

Nice flag.

Good points. You said it well. Trayvon Martin became big national news because the media pushed the story, because it fit into their template of racism and discrimination. Part of an alleged pattern of racism, as you say so well.

But black on white knockout games, or black flash mobs robbing stores, is NEVER reported as part of any pattern. When these stories are in the news, we’re told they are random.

Gee... Isn’t is GREAT how the police protect you?

Aren’t you all thankful that they outlawed guns in DC??

SO much safer now...

If they [politicians, enforced by their police] allowed the serfs to have guns, the surfs would start thinking that they were free people.

F*** ‘em. Carry anyway.

Your life is worth more than any stupid law.

Have your day - and say - in court with a jury of your peers if it comes to it.

Who the hell do these animals think they are?

What do they call each other? There's a good part of your answer.

If you get the chance to defend yourself...Most times, unless you are absolutely on top of your surroundings, you will never see it coming...

Funny how this stuff only seems to be prevalent in state and areas where concealed carry is not allowed or non-existant...

You are right...But the next “Trayvon Martin” is out there somewhere...

And it will never be looked at in the proper context when it does happen...

Too bad that post got deleted by the Mods...It would be interesting to know what that was all about...

If there is just a link to that story, that the OP was explaining in Post #6, I would like to know and decide for myself, if that was the case...

Dallas is right up the road from us down here, and usually it doesn’t take long for nonsense to flow down to the coast...

Senseless? These kids should be dealt with immediately with a knockout blow from a 9mm. And I might just suggest the parents get some hard jail time too. Who the hell do these animals think they are?

While I tend to agree with you, I'd hate to be on the receiving end of a Zimmerman style public reaction. But in the alternative, I'd love for there to be video someday of one of these punks trying to score a knockout on a Navy SEAL just back from Afghanistan and walking around in civvies. A good public A$$-whuppin' is always a valuable learning experience!
