Knock Out Whitey

The latest black inner-city game challenges young thugs to knock-out “white folks” with one, and only one, sucker punch.  These upstanding adolescents and young adults, who (like Trayvon Martin) could have been Obama’s sons, sneak up on unsuspecting whites, coldcock them, and run away.  The attack often involves several accomplices, with one sometimes videoing the event for future scoring and uproarious entertainment.

Like so many trends, this one started in NYC, the world’s hip-hop center.   Originally the assault was directed mostly at Jews.  Brooklyn’s Rabbi Yaacov Behrman, in fact, referred to the game as, ‘Knock Out The Jew.’  And Ray Kelly, the city’s Police Commissioner said that he had known of at least eight such attacks since mid-September 2013.

Underscoring the racist element, the knock-out game often is called the polar bear game since whites exclusively are being hunted.  Not surprisingly, such fun did not remain limited to Jews or to the “Big Apple” either.  To date, similar attacks on Jewish and non-Jewish whites have been documented for St. Louis, Missouri, New Haven, Connecticut., Washington, D.C., and the suburbs of Philadelphia.  Among the many victims have been a 12 year-old boy and a 78 year-old woman.  If you are white, you are a moving target, regardless of your residence, age, or gender.

On November 21, 2013, Colleen Long of the Associated Press wrote “Attacks around US probed for link to knockout game,” a piece worth reading in its entirety (http://news.yahoo.com/attacks-around-us-probed-knockout-game-215216013.html).  Among her revelations is the following:

In late May in Syracuse, a group of teenagers attempting to knock Michael Daniels out with a single punch wound up beating and stomping him to death, according to police. A 16-year-old was found guilty of manslaughter, and his 13-year-old co-defendant pleaded guilty to assault, admitting he started the fatal beating by trying to knock out Daniels with a single punch. Both were sentenced to 18 months behind bars.

Punishment for the crime surely serves as a strong deterrent to anyone contemplating similar assaults.  Just think of it: The poor misguided attackers, probably innocent victims of the “legacy of anti-black institutionalized racism in America,” are to receive a bruising sentence of about 540 days in jail. When they are released, they will be provided a free cell phone, free internet service, food stamps, condoms, a Medicare card, a voter registration card, social security benefits, and be invited to attend a community college with one-on-one tutoring for their Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder/Learning Disability.  Mr. Daniels’ family no doubt already has been given someone’s condolences and a clean white handkerchief.

So there you have it.  More black on white viciousness.  I haven’t heard half-black President Barack Obama or all-black Attorney General Eric Holder speak out about the knock-out game as racial oppression.  Have you?   So I will be so bold as to speak for them.

The knock-out game is one more rendition of the BIMP (black inner-city male persona) subculture. 

As I wrote in my book, some high-profile adult black race mongers and some American media delight in promoting swaggering, crotch-grabbing, expletive-spewing hyper-masculine behavior of some city-saturated African American boys so long as race mongers and media make a fast buck from it.  Anything from music to sports, to fashion and beyond is glamorized and “gangstarized” by media conglomerates to increase attention and sales.  Most blacks, including inner city-black males, are not BIMPS.  Most inner-city blacks want no part of the crude, criminal BIMP subculture.  But BIMPS rule inner-city streets and BIMP behavior is exploited on radio, internet, television, and movies, spreading the filth throughout our culture and, therefore, throughout the world.
