"the knockout game"

Not a good game...



On that note, this is the kind of stuff that will inspire another dozen or so George Zimmerman wannabe's to start taking pot shots at groups of kids who "look like" they might be roaming around to play a so-called game of knockout.

Even worse, its going to make a good chunk of the public more sympathetic to a shooter who guns down unarmed kids who "look like", in their eyes, potential troublemakers.

That is bad for everyone all the way around.

All aspiring knock-out players need to do is have a "you were forewarned when you arrived" knock-out party among themselves, Jackass/Loiter Squad/Chuck Palahniuk style. Keep the game among themselves if they gotta do it to pass the time and show how strong they are.

Or, ****, take a MMA class or something.

If its all about the "game" or the "thrill of the hunt", violent kids willingly beating the hell out of each other isn't great either, but its a lot better than randomly injuring (and possibly murdering) random passerby who aren't in on the "game".

In one of those vids did I see a guy knock out (and down on the sidewalk) a woman -- from behind? What the hell is that? How is that showing everyone how tough you are?
