Makes me wonder what ol girl did, to garner such a thrashing. Funny how America could be up in arms about a little light-weight beat down like this, and then turn a cold shoulder to the deaths of 1 million Iraqis in the past 60 months. Barely makes the news.
Had the "victim" been a black girl, Brother Mike would be talking about "A Global System of White Supremacy". (Remember the little black "torture" victim a few months back?)
Had the "perpetrators" been a group of black girls, beating a white girl, how would this story have played out?
At the end of the day - race is a nonevent.

I thought this video was extremely disturbing.I still can't figure out if I find it so disgusting because of the exceptional brutality (I mean really…why keep fighting the girl if you’ve already knocked her out cold?), or if it is due to the victim’s sorry lack of defense.
One thing I know for sure about my little girl is that she definitely would have held her own and she sure as hell would have made her way out of the house.
I don’t think it’s fair to criticize the American public for finding this video at least somewhat disconcerting despite the atrocities that are fuelued by the U.S. through it's irrational foreign policy.
Although most American's were complicit in the manufacture and promotion of this war, (through false means, no less) I find that currently the majority do not turn a cold shoulder to the circumstances but are desperate to end it.

It ain’t no lie.
I can recall when I first discovered that my daughter truly had her mother and grandmother’s fiya. When she was about 3 years old, we had her enrolled in this little private school. One day as I was peeking through the classroom window, some little boy decided he was going to get up out of his seat and smack her in the back of the head.
Before I could get the door open good enough to get inside and intervene, lil girl had raised up, popped dude in the head so fast, by the time I was inside classroom, he was on the floor wailing.
I just said, come on baby, get your coat and let’s go…she was like, "okay mommy" :-)

LOL.
That's what I'm talking about Kimberly.
It will be a dangerous world when the social engineers who control the "school" systems succeed in conditioning our children to allow the state to resolve ALL of their disputes for them.
Kids who get into fistfights are often arrested, charged with assault and even jailed.
That's a dangerous precedent. Individuals must learn to resolve conflict among themselves. The alternative is voluntary subjugation to a totalitarian state.
My sons and I actually practice picking up bricks.

My father didn't play. Someone hits you, you hit them back. My sister and I got in so many fights at school and never once got in trouble with him for it (except if we lost). His only question was "did you win"?
I took my oldest out to a college football practice the other day and he got in a scrap with kid much bigger than him. Though he got smack up a little, he hit back. Warmed up my heart.
I don't really find the video disturbing. It's sad that the girl just sat there and let them beat on her like that. Better to go down swingin'. I did a few times.

Man, ditto to Kimberly's statements about there being no way in hell I'd be trapped in that house and about that girl's sorry defense skills. Oh, and Dina and I apparently had the same type of parents.
I remember back in 8th grade I was supposed to be one of the girls "getting jumped" on the last day of school. There was no individual specifically associated with what I later learned was merely a rumor, but I didnt want to go to school nevertheless.
When I told my parents about what was supposed to transpire, not only did they make me go to school, I was given a pre-fight speech in the car on the way about how I had their permission to "beat the shit out of" anybody who approached me or talked crazy. They told me that I would fight and that I better win.
When they were in the car outside of school at 3 oclock, of course I emerged with reports that nothing had happened.
They taught me that I should never entertain letting anyone run me away from anything. From that day on that kinda shit didnt bother me anymore. So when I got to highschool and chicks were hating on my crew b/c we were all cute with brand new cars, I was unphased and fully prepared to beat someone's ass if need be. LOL.
I bet that it makes you a good lawyer too!
