At the Wisconsin State Fair in 2011 the Modern Version of the racially driven Knock Out Game began. Throughout 2011, 2012 and 2013 the attacks continued with exponential fury in St. Louis, Atlanta, Baltimore, Virginia Beach, Miami, New York, Philadelphia and New Jersey. 
The actual behavior comes under several differing geographic names.  “Knock Out Game”, “Polar Bear Hunting”, “Flash Mob” or just “Cracking”.
The most famous perpetrator of such an attack was a 17-year-old named Trayvon Martin.  Martin’s victim did not get knocked out in the first punch. You probably never actually knew about it, because the media chose to highlight the action of the white-Hispanic victim who shot his thug attacker in the heart as he defended himself.
However, recently the media began to catch on because several back-to-back attacks in New York and Washington DC have been highlighted. Fox and CBS news began pointing out the specific intents of these crimes and the injury and deaths they have caused.
In the face of overwhelming continual evidence the attacks are being perpetrated by black youth against non-black victims Reverend Al Sharptongue now steps up and says it should stop.
New York – Rev. Al Sharpton condemned “knockout” attacks Saturday but stopped short of calling for marches against the brutal hate crimes.
“This kind of behavior is deplorable and must be condemned by all us,” he said at his weekly National Action Network meeting in Harlem. “We would not be silent if it was the other way around. We cannot be silent or in any way reluctant to confront it when it is coming from our own community.”
On Monday, Sharpton and other leaders plan to discuss a “next move.”

“Kids are randomly knocking out people [from] another race — some specifically going at Jewish people,” he said. “This kind of insane thuggery — there is nothing cute about that. There is no game play about knocking somebody out, and it is not a game. It is an assault and is bias, and it is wrong.”

Critics of Sharpton suggested he could do more, but acknowledged his words as a “good start”.  (read more)
