Illinois Judge goes easy on "knock out game" convict.

Via Jonathan Turley.
While the rest of the country has been trying to find a way to deter the savage game known as “knock out” (where men randomly punch pedestrians to see if they can knock them out), Judge William Mays in Quincy Illinois appears less than steadfast in his approach of the “game.” Mays had Lamar Coulter, 21, in his courtroom and a compelling record of what appeared two knock out crimes. Nevertheless, Mays let Coulter go without prison time — giving him probation instead.

Coulter was arrested after two separate incidents on June 27th of a 37-year-old man and two 18-year-old men who said that they were suddenly punched by a man who fled the scene in a car. Police arrested Coulter and Calvin L. Snell for robbery and the three men were taken to a hospital.
Are these attacks still going on? You wouldn't know it by watching the news.

"A newspaper can create a crime wave anytime it wants by simply moving to the front the crimes that would have ordinarily been reported in the back and by actually reporting the crimes that ordinarily would not have been reported at all."

I read that in some book many years ago.

Quote from memory.

It is a weekly occurrence that is covered up by the liberal media. It happened on Court St two weeks ago and was not reported anywhere.

All I know is that if the victim of the knock out "game" was Judge William Mays of Quincy, Illinois, this moron would be in prison right now. The real victims here are victims not only of the insipid overentitled underbrained troglodyte knock out game but also of the judicial ego/lefty favor bank knock out game.

Attention: Judge William Mays
Being a member of a politically favored group is not a get-out-of-jail card for knocking people unconscious for fun.

It would be great if more people would pay attention to judicial elections. They are the most local elections and the ones that affect the most people locally.

Covering up and excusing criminal behavior does not actually eliminate criminal behavior. It actually encourages it. Make a note of that, Judge William Mays of Quincy, Illinois. You are encouraging crime.
