Victim

[Old-Time-Lifter]

Sorry to hear about her attack. Do they think the injuries will heal fully?

[thomashenry]

My favorite cousin (like a sister), a single mom, was walking to her car from the gym in a big NJ town. She was punched in the face full force from behind and left on the sidewalk unconscious. Thankfully a couple of strangers took her to the hospital. No witnesses and police can't help much. Her head is so swollen she can't see out of one eye. The knockout game is something I guess I will never understand. It happens to all ages and an old guy from Syracuse was knocked out dead. 70 years old. My cousin's little girl is having a hard time coping with this as am I.
They say that real evil is the lack of empathy.

I am quite sorry to hear about your Cousin, My Prayers are with Her and Hope she is ok in the Long Run

From one old time lifter to another Thanks.

Hey Thomas Godbless!

I want to see these punks try their little game on an able bodied male, perhaps a real pissed off Navy Seal? I read about crap like this and can't help but wonder just what makes these pricks act like this and also how bad society as whole is getting.


In other news I see Brack got banned, that's way out of character for him.

Looking forward to the video of the coward who tries this **** on someone with a concealed carry.

Ya want your blood to truly Boil, follow the story of a man in DETROIT who accidently hit a child {who stepped in front of his truck} and the Man stopped to get out and help him to see if he was ok, and a Mob of amoral animals beat him senseless and he landed in the Hospital in a comma for doing the right thing, the Race pimps, Jackson, Sharpton Et al were nowhere to be found, see the guy who hit the child was white and the Double Standard is appalling a true harbinger of the state of our Nation in regards to right & wrong-------The darkness being embraced in this nation is frightening, "Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters. -Benjamin Franklin, "

I saw this on the news. Just breaks your heart. The fellow was at no fault whatsoever, just horrified that he had struck a child, and did what any responsible individual would do; stop, get out, and do what you can do to help. Vicious, blind, stupid ignorance makes my blood boil!

[NorwichGrad]

That's horrible, Coach.. Really sorry to hear. Hope your cousin recovers and the criminal brought to justice.

Thomas - that's a shame about that guy in Detroit.. This is why I avoid the news. My blood is boiling just reading this thread.

Amoral, vicious with no conscience, inexcusable, this man did what any civil sane person would do in that instance, and this happens, my 1st reaction was Now what do you think people will do if this occurs again , and how crazy is that, doing the right thing or risking life to help and again the double standard is blatant and just as sick

I know from reporting on the incident that the city of Detroit was horrified, incensed and up in arms about the whole thing. I believe the police are doing everything humanly possible to find those who mercilessly beat that poor man. I trust that they do! If you act like a mindless, rabid dog, you ought to be treated like one!

If it only worked that way...

Agree. Also for the truck driver.

Yes a Woman {Good Samaritan} stopped it Thank God, and a great many are upset, which they should be, it unfortunately, the incident, gained National and World attention once again on Detroit, in a negative light ! which is truly too bad. Immediate swift & retributive actual Justice would prove to others Beware, No one has the Stones to do it.

[OldCoach]

Hey....thanks Norwich

Thomas, saw that on the news.....not the mainstream news if you know what I mean. Horrible

Concealed carry will not help many people in this situation. Taking a punch and reacting is a huge difference when you know your being attacked. A sucker punch is a whole other story. These cowards hit and run leaving victims stunned or unconscious. Chances of being able to take the hit, pull a gun, and have a clear enough head to aim and fire before the pu$$y is gone, I'm guessing pretty slim.

Having an Open Carry sidearm in & of itself can {sometimes} be a deterrent, nevertheless Detroit is kinda like Baghdad without all the Glitter, so the badguys are generally carrying as well, and the Detroit Police Chief, the new new one has publicly indicated the citizens have every right to defend themselves, because waiting for the police to respond is putting your life in imminent danger, and a few have taken that upon themselves recently

Oh I agree the carry can be a deterrent because these people prey on people who pose no threat. I was more responding that it's probably not going to help much once you've been sucker punched. I would guess a high percentage of people (even a lot who know how to fight and can take a regular punch) are not going to have their wits after taking a surprise punch to the jaw or temple.

True story, in my younger days, I went to dance with a dude who really knew Karate {I didn`t know that }, he spun around so fast and hit me with the point of his elbow square in my eye socket, it was like wiley coyote seeing stars, I went down on one knee and he never touched me again, I looked exactly for a week as to what you would expect, we were actually friends after that, played hockey together, But there are some you alluded to Predators that even when down close in for the Kill

I think it was a kid caught for theft and vandalism in Singapore. An American kid so consequently there was a rash of outrage for his sentence of public caning. Not sure what the outcome was.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_P._Fay


I agree anyone caught should be publicly caned

I know what happened in that case. Pres Clinton requested that Singapore return the teen to the US to face punishment here. Singapore refused. The kid was caned (publicly) and returned to the US.


@Coach-

Sorry about your cousin. I will pray for her.

Minors who do that should be tried as adults.

I guess the next time the little miscreant goes to Singapore he'll know better than to steal things and vandalize somebody's property! I do trust that his little psyche suffered no permanent damage as a result of the whole ordeal.

Yeah. He was an American in school in Singapore. He and a bunch of his buddies thought it would be funny to spray paint cars. They got caught and the others left the country before they faced punishment.

That knock-out game just makes me spittin mad. Bunch of gutless, immoral turds.

[pharmamarketer]

Thanks so much for the thoughts you guys:
SP....I'm not sure I understand you my friend?

Hayes is a douche from MSNBC that dismissed the "knockout game".

Just this evening when I was walking just two blocks from my gym, two girls started getting a bit too close to me as I was about to pass and started laughing and taunting, saying, "I'm homeless! I'm homeless!" I had been on our area news back in November, and apparently they were making fun of me. I was not in the mood, so I stopped and nearly got into their faces and said, "WTF is that supposed to mean?! Da fck?!" They bobbed their heads at me, did their hand gestures as if to say, "come at me" and I said, "look, stay off the crack and get a life". They followed me as I walked towards my apartment and called out for a friend to join in ganging up on me. I was like, "really? Two of you and you need a friend to take me? And start stuff with me and get mad when I dare respond? Whatever. You know where I live." They turned around quickly when I reached in my bag for my keys. They weren't so sure what I was reaching for. I realized that I could have pulled out my leather powerlifting belt and swung that around wildly (with the buckle on the end to do some damage). Just was not a day to deal with idiots.

That's pretty fuked up. I can't take sh!t like that without putting up a fight. I'm a pretty laid back guy. My friends can piss all over me as far as jokes and stuff and not a single fuk is given. When a stranger makes a threat, it's no holes barred. I go into fighting mode whether it's one or ten. Kick ass or get my ass kicked, I really don't care, but I will never surrender myself to threats.

Damn, that sounds crazy. Glad you are ok and nothing happened.

That's interesting. You don't think it's wiser sometimes to just walk away from it?
Suppose the person/people are just "taunting" and you react, and then one pulls out a gun? To me, if you can walk away, might be better. Don't want to see anything bad happen to ya!

I'd rather be dead than walk away. Guess it's a pride thing.
