I completely agree. thank goodness MOST people( all races) are not being and have not learned such behaviors.
You ae right, most people do not do that. They were talking about black youth.. who... have and are doing that. And the black politicians and leaders acknowledge it.
"Additional funding for community patrols"... Lol.
National Urban league video " no..to K.O."...
( a need to teach their youth not to sucker punch old people. couldn't / shouldn't their families teach them that?)
Here in the NYC area a substantial amount of the victims were Hasidic Jews, a few were killed.

Leaders from the African-American community also made statements. New York City councilman Charles Barron stated that the root of the problem was a need for jobs to keep young people out of trouble; he also suggested additional funding for community patrols to act as lookouts.[60] Representative Hakeem Jeffries said at a Crown Heights Youth Collective conference that attacks based on race will not be tolerated and that the collective will do everything in its power to see that justice is done.[52] Brooklyn's then-District Attorney-elect Kenneth P. Thompson called out the attacks, saying that "there is no status to be gained" for knocking out an unsuspecting victim and that such violence will not be tolerated. Brooklyn Borough President-elect Eric Adams affirmed Thompson's statement, saying that, if you "play this game, ... you will lose".[52]
Other notable New York City community members who have spoken against the attacks include Reverend Al Sharpton[61] and Dov Hikind.[62] Al Sharpton, Russell Simmons, Foundation for Ethnic Understanding founder Rabbi Marc Schneier, former NYC mayor David Dinkins and former New Orleans mayor and current National Urban League president Marc Morial released a video in December 2013 saying "No to K.O."[63] Retired Brooklyn-born boxer Mike Tyson has also spoken against the attacks on The Piers Morgan Show.[64]
