Those fucking evil bitches. They remind me of evil bitches I went to school with. Man, I hate people. Hopefully jail will wipe the smiles off their faces.

I've been following this for a couple of days now. The series of beatings I could sadly just attribute to how messed up humans are, even out of someone that young (although the cheerleader part doesn't suprise me). The video taping just proves how out of touch with reality they are. What really gets me is that they seem to think that they're going to get away with just a slap on the wrist.

Personally, I hope that they get tried as adults and this stays on thier record.

Me too, thats horrible. And because of myspace comments?! So much shit gets filmed now as well. A guy from my school attacked a girl with a knife after drugging her and another guy filmed that. I think the one that filmed it got away with it too.

Those girls didn't look like they could fight their way out of a wet paper sack, let alone "nearly beat someone to death".

I heard this story on the news a while back and they were talking about it on the radio. The radio host was saying some really random, stupid things about why he believes that we see more of this nowdays. He blamed things like Youtube, Myspace, Facebook, and places like that for this. He says that because of those sites, we are prone to this kind of behaviour.

In my opinion that's bullshit. If children are more violent and have become desensitized (sp?) it is not because an internet site made them do it. We can't start pointing the finger at any random thing that we see in front of us first. It could have been because of parental issues or societal issues that surround these people's lives. Not all of us who go on these sites are evil.

Well that's just a bit of my rant about what that stupid radio guy said about this story. It just pissed me off. This issue though, was brutal and debatable. Maybe she instigated something?

Well, now you know why my favorite poem by is short, albeit succinct:

Could he see us,
Would reject us.

I favor a simpler explanation than that of using society or parents as a scapegoat:

People are evil.

Agreed. It really pisses me off when people blame myspace and such for all the worlds evils... As I said, I remember shit like this happening in my school days and we all weren't on myspace back then.

'Does this mean I'm going to miss cheerleading practice tomorrow?' Just goes to show how stupid American teens are these days, I wonder when it will sink in they are definitely going to miss cheerleading practice, who here would pay to see their reaction when it does?

Violence has always happened without the internet. I can't believe that people blame it either.
If someone already has those thoughts in their heads, they are going to do it anyway.

Those girls are disgusting people and i'd like to see if they're laughing when they're put in jail...

The latest update - Dr. Phil paid the bail for the alleged 'ringleader' and is personally helping with the case.

Note, I use the term 'doctor' loosely here, since he is nothing of the sort.

Whaat?!! Why would Dr Phil do such a fucking dumb thing? I suppose to have them all on his show. Lesson they've learned: they can get away with whatever the fuck they want. *Disgusted now*

First of all, "Dr" Phil is a knob.

Secondly, what the hell is he thinking? Is he actually insane? He is a disgusting man...

Dr. Phil scares me.
Everything is fake these days. People rely on the replay so much that we don't feel anything real until we get it, and even then, it's fading out...

I would like to point out that the girl is on bail. Technically, she is still going to be prosecuted.

That was so freaking wrong. God, when will people learn that violence isn't the answer? It solves nothing... I swear, how could they be so heartless...?

We'll never learn. It's hard-wired. Has been since we distinguished ourselves from chimps by full-time bipedalism, and will be until we choke ourselves out with our own filth. Sometimes I can't wait until that day comes.

I was watching the video and my mom cam in the room and asked me to start it over. She watches the whole thing, reads the article and then she says to me.

MyMom: "If anyone ever tries shit like that on you, you better whip their fucking asses"

Me: "lol ok"

I think those girls are a bunch of fucking bitches for doing that. And the Victim should of stood up for her self. I would of straight kicked some cheerleader ass. Fucking bitches.
