I just posted links with over 20 white victims of black on white crime including 5 deaths from attacks. Is that enough or are we still talking about rainbow parrots?

I agree, wait till they cross paths with someone playing the " shoot out" game, then it will really be funny.

No it's a reflection of their LOSER mom that raised them, that's all.

I bet most of these clowns come from a single parent home on welfare with no accountability or parenting involved. If these guys are minors their parent(s) should be arrested also.

No, because then it will become national news and we'll talk about racism for a long time. Mostly about your racism, but it's still a conversation about "racism". Black "youths" kill whitey, meh no big deal.

Actually, it is a game though I don't know if race is a factor. Normally, the game is played by bored teens that see an unsuspecting target and then randomly punch said target. One of my friends know someone this happened to, but the teens playing the game got their jaw broken and jail time. The last person to make the news playing the knock out game in Chicago ended up getting 30 years because their target died.

The knockout "game" is really a phenomenon that seems bigger than it is because now there's a new name for random Black violence. Blacks have always had high violent crime rates and it was actually much higher in the 1990s. With the internet and the proliferation of video recording devices, it just seems to be higher now. It is a problem though, but it has always been a problem. It's the reason for White flight and the deterioration of multiple cities and neighborhoods.

It actually originated in London. Besides, if you watch the Friday scene you will see that there is nothing random about that fight.
