What really is the difference between what these girls did vs. gang jump-ins or activity? Could the only difference be the media's coverage? Has America just become immune to urban violence and just don't believe that the 'burbs are as safe as they think?
Well, even if other folks don't get it, this article did make me think about this?

i think if this was in an inner city neighborhood, this wouldn't even get any kind media attention. the kids would up and get sent to jail. the shit is assault, point blank. don't let them graduate...and give them the same exact punishment a 40 year old man would have gotten for beating down another 40 year old man. you let them off because they're in a rich white neighborhood, you're sending the wrong message. that shows that mommy and daddy can afford for you to act a fool as long as they have enough money to bail your dumbass out.
