Anybody know anything about this:
Knockout: Victims of brutal Downtown Mall assault want arrests, and answers from police
Are the CPD really uncaring, incompetent, overworked ... what?
I'm struck by this comment, though, from a victim:
So, he would rather be beaten to unconsciousness than defend himself with a gun. Not only that, but his "defenses were down" so he wasn't paying attention? What qualifies him to give advice?

I'm struck by this comment, though, from a victim:
I was attacked years ago by three men fitting phyisical description and behavior -- laughing and carrying on like a game. i had no one to protect but myself so i was able to stay down and take the fun out of it for them. i sustained some injuries but not as bad as Marc's. i managed to use my voice when i gained consciousness and yelled out when i realized i was getting beaten. ...
For those advocating guns - i do not believe carrying a is a solution...first of all my defenses were down and i never saw the knock out punch coming so a gun wouldve been useless. Secondly, for many reasons i'd rather take a beating than possibly kill someone or vainly try to deliver wounds to all three and get shot myself, or at the very least, encourage them and the rest of society to carry.
