An imaginary transcription of what led this bonehead level of dumbassity(tm)
"hey, let's tape ourselves beat the crap out of her and post it on the internet"
"yeah, we'll look soooo cool"
"and the police can't arrest us because the city ain't in the internet"
"yeah, we have rights cuz it's "art""
This is stupid. It really is. It's another thing for Nancy Grace to turn bright red over (I would watch for comedy value, but she runs opposite Keith Olbermann). These kids are stupid enough to videotape themselves committing a felony. What is up with kids born after 1991? did some switch go off? because ever person i've met born between 1992 and 1995 have been some of the rudest people i've ever met in my life.
I've seen some crazy crap in my life, like this:
In my senior year, One kid stabbed another at the pep rally which I was covering for the paper and a sophomore sexually harassed the (female) photographer (who's a good friend of mine) who was assigned with me to cover the pep rally (we didn't use anything because another kid smashed our camera. Don't worry, he had to pay for a new one). This is why i'm happy i'm not in high school anymore. Usually we had to keep crap like that out of the paper, but sometimes it was too hard not to. Actually our principal made a morning announcement speech giving the newspaper staff the power to report any kid who harassed us or hindered our ability to do an assignment (and guess what happened more and more after that?)
