A teenager beat a 70-year-old man with a stick, knocking him unconscious, in a random unprovoked attack on a Bronx street, officials said Thursday. (NYPD) A teenager beat a 70-year-old man with a stick, knocking him unconscious, in a random unprovoked attack on a Bronx street, officials said Thursday. The victim told police that he was walking down Third Ave. near E. 168th St. in Claremont Village when the teen ran up behind him and struck him in the head with a stick about 1:50 p.m. April 6, officials said. The senior fell to the ground unconscious, cops said.
I have not read the article, but let me make a prediction:
1. Perp looks like a son that Obama never had
2. Victim is an elderly Hasidic Jewish man
Any takers?

Feral and out of control.
This is a deadly serious situation with no solution on the horizon. The "Amish" jokes stopped being funny 20 years ago.
Civilized America is being swallowed alive.
The statistics tell it all and here we are -- what to do?

The Amish jokes are not meant to be funny. They are meant to be ironic. We speculate the perpetrator is a member of the most law abiding group in the country, with the full knowledge that the opposite is true.
It also makes it harder to get criticized as the Amish don´t have a Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton to start riots for them.

Such an honest paper; "teen," is that the proper description of this violent criminal?

"A teenager" - Std description #1. Another example of why it is the standard description.

Gotta have street creds, don´tcha know. All this really says is the perp is an animal and coward filled with hate. We´ll be told how bad ghetto life is. I don´t care. This jerk made a choice to be like this.

Be not afraid of any man,
No matter what his size.
When danger threatens call on me
And I will equalize!

This is why we have a 2nd Amendment (one reason) When the strong can prey on the old without fear of harm we will have this kind of thing happening all over.

If the law would start putting these Amish kids and their other family members in jail it just might send a message. I realize that jails are already crowded, etc. Build more jails. I would gladly contribute more taxes to help toward the building of jails. On second thought the mother of these kids should be thrown in jail with the kid for not doing her job raising the kid. I would include the father too, but I know he´s no where to be found.

Should be a death penalty offense, especially when a person who cannot defend themselves, like the elderly and children.

#3 is right in many ways. Although humor is a defense mechanism there is no good reason for vulnerable people to have to fear walking American streets and we’ve been putting up with this nonsense for well over half a century. The likes of the boy who attacked this man will have to be dealt with eventually. If law enforcement and the courts can’t or won’t stop attacks on innocent people they’d damn well better not even try to further disarm the rest of us.

This looks like a gang initiation act. And the police would know that.

Suggestion: Read the full article before commenting.
The article includes a surveillance camera photo of the perp. He is a Negro kid. (His religion, if any, is unknown.)
The victim said he didn´t plan to change his daily routine or walking route. He needs his head examined.

#8, and I carry a Colt Commander, in .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (.45 ACP) caliber every day. As one gets older, there is no doubt that we become an apparently more attractive target for these feral thugs, seemingly less able to run or fight. No doubt I am much less able to run compared to 20 years ago, but I can still fight effectively, thanks to John Browning´s genius design and Sam Colt´s manufacturing company.
I will never look for trouble, will always try to avoid it if I can, but I will defend myself if it becomes necessary.
Occasionally these thugs find someone prepared to defend themselves. One nationally known firearms instructor calls this, "A tragic failure in the victim selection process." Yeah, that.
Of course, this is NYC, so it is impossible for the unrich and unfamous to obtain a concealed carry permit.
But, there is a case before the US Supreme Court now that may reinstate the 2nd Amendment in NYC like it was reinstated in equally anti-gun rights Illinois. Illinois now has Shall Issue concealed carry. Perhaps NYC will have it, too.

As another poster mentioned his carry gun. Mine is a S&W Jframe .38 special. It might be a little light for some of you but it’s lightweight and I think it will be enough aimed center mass. I am lucky to live in a small southern town and a relatively safe little town. I don’t want to have to kill another human being but I will if I have to. I refuse to be beaten by by black trash or white trash and I will protect myself.

"Negro"? That´s a blast from the past.
This horrible behavior is the result of a death culture created by "right to abortion," aka legal murder of the innocent, and stripping society of the Christian God. It started with taking prayer out of schools, and it´s gone downhill rapidly since. Moral relativity, no respect for the elderly or human life in general, I am a god unto myself, no consequences, and my rights and what I think matter over the common good. Oh, and racism makes me entitled.

I notice the article avoids mentioning the race of the victim.
Can you imagine if the perpetrator had been a white kid in a MAGA hat?!?!?!? It wouldn´t matter who the victim was. Every headline in the MSM would be calling it a "racist hate" crime (even if the victim was white too) caused by the hate President Trump preaches!!!

Why don´t they just print "Black Teenager" in the headline to save us the trouble of looking at the picture. It would be a huge timesaver.

#18, I have instructed handguns for many years, and for a while, concealed carry training courses.
The First Rule of gunfighting: Have a gun.
Exactly what model and style and caliber can be a topic for further, possibly interesting, discussion.
Whatever gun is necessary to permit a person to avoid violating the First Rule, is a good choice. And sometimes a J-frame or a Colt Cobra are handier for me, too.

I´m over 65 and legally carry a concealed handgun. This punk would have had a huge surprise coming had he tried the same with me.

I’m 100% pro-carry, but how is a gun going to prevent someone bushwhacking you from behind? The victim was caught completely surprised and off-guard in this unprovoked attack. I think the old guy, unfortunately, let his situational awareness lapse while walking in a dangerous neighborhood.

It´s called social justice so perps can do whatever it feels good to do with no penalty. Feral animals are running free now.
