The 6 girls attacking the one

Okay so this isnt Philosophy so much but wanted to know your thoughts. The story as Ive heard it and Im sure most of you have is that a 16 year old girl posted something on myspace about these cheerleaders that apparently wasnt nice or they didnt agree with. So they picked her up in a car took her to one of their grandparents made nice nice and then started yelling screaming and punching her in the head. 2 boys stood outside the house watching on look out. The attackers were 14 to 17 and one of the boys was 18. They are hoping for stays in juvi and thats it. The videos are everywhere if you havent seen it or want to see it again.

omg what is wrong with people

Although I have a myspace I barely talk to anyone on it let alone blog with it. These are teens I get that but Im 19 and I would never act like that no matter what anyone said. How do they not have better common sense? What exactly are we doing so terribly wrong that we cant teach them simple right and wrong? This is somewhat of a terrible thought but even if you were going to do that why would you tape it? They musta been wanting to get caught or something. I havent a clue what this girl said but I can hardly imagine that it deserves 6 girls all taking swings at her head and screaming in her face. She is going to be messed up now for the longest time and all these kids are gonna get is a slap on the wrist. It is actually making me physically sick to my stomache thinking about it. Im probably days behind but I intentionally dont watch the news to avoid stuff like this.
I am so angry about this! I just watched another video and he said that the girls were joking about it in the jail cell. And that one of the mothers of the attackers said she shouldnt talk smack about someone if she cant back it up.

Is myspace to blame or these kids? I say the kids. Myspace is the new burn book or slam book depending on the decade you were born lol.

  It's terrible, but the technology is not to blame. There have always been petty, violent people that are also stupid enough to let themselves get caught so easily. Myspace is just a different device for someone to be petty about, if it wasn't for myspace it would've been because someone overheard her saying something.

Not playing the Devil's Advocate here but...

throw some mud in between those girls and hell, we would have some good wholesome entertainment.

The only think lacking would be a refreshment stand.

Now seriously, how stupid, a bunch of teenage girls going at it like dogs. We have moms and dads scared to spank their children as they grow up and etc. Many kids are starting to get out of control. When you take away the threat of punishment then there is nothing to keep them from crossing that behavior line. In my opinion, grounding a child is a poor excuse of punishment. Poor little suzie, she is confined to her room with only her cell, a playstation, a gamecube, tv, dvd, and her PC. OMG, how will she ever cope!!!...give me a break. I'm not advocating beating your child but hell, let the punishment fit the crime. Let your child know exactly where the "line of no return" is and when they cross it then spank(not beat) their little butt.

  Very true, but no doubt their problems stem alot further back in age than this.

These girls have no excuse for what they did. I dont care what the other girl said about them. From what I heard they wanted to become famous with this little payback video of theirs. With what I heard some of their parents supposed to have said its not wonder.

Yeah, I'm not sure if you knew for sure EB but it wasn't a bunch of teenage girls going at it like dogs. It was a bunch of teenage girls ganging up on one other girl, knocking her unconscious at one point, getting her up, and assaulting her again. While having 2 boys standing guard outside, and videotaping the whole thing. And then putting it up online like it was the funniest thing. It was really atrocious behavior.

I was rarely hit by my parents as a child, I can think of maybe 2 times I got a quick slap. Regular punishments and lectures and reasoning can raise a kid just fine. What these parents did was worse than that, as Steph said one mother said "she shouldnt talk smack about someone if she cant back it up." That's not a form of not being stern enough, that's being delusional and probably a slave to your own child.

Mud wrestling, however, SHOULD be advocated more...

  As I said, their problems stem much farther back than this. Yes, I know how serious this is and I'm not making light of this situation. But, I will say I personally believe in spankings. I grew up receiving lectures and reasoning, but when my parents felt my due punishment was serious enough to justify a spanking then I received one those too.

Spanking is one of those things I think are like a last resort attention getter. If nothing else at the moment is working then try that but I dont think it needs to be the first go to nor do I think that spanking harms a child for life.

  I think any parent worth his salt should consider talking to their child first but I do not see a spanking as causing more harm. I see it causing harm when parents carry it to far but in general I think a spanking can and has put many children on the right track.
