Read this article and see if something sticks out so quickly to you around the concept of the headline: “The only commonality is that basically all the victims were Jewish.”

New York (Crown Heights) – Police have arrested four children in connection with a string of alleged “knockout game” attacks in Brooklyn, the NYPD said.

A 14-year-old girl and three other children, aged 10 and 11, were arrested in connection with three assaults that took place between October and November.

The victims included an 11-year-old boy who was punched on President Street, a youth who was hit with a rock while walking home from school and a youngster who was “mushed” in the face with a plastic bag, said Deputy Inspector George Fitzgibbon, the 71st Precinct’s new commanding officer.

“Kids are kids — when you’re talking 10 and 11 year olds getting involved in these type of things, sometimes they don’t realize the magnitude of what they’re doing,” Fitzgibbon said.

While the NYPD’s Hate Crimes Task Force worked on the investigation as well, police determined that the attacks were not motivated by bias.

“Every time one of these incidents did occur, nothing was ever said with regard to any kind of bias, so to speak,” Fitzgibbon said of the three attacks, which occurred in October and November.

Really? That’s the only commonality – really? REALLY ?

Well, I guess when you choose to filter the “race” of the perpetrators, you’re clear to say the only commonality are the components of the victim. See what they do there.
