Now, apparently, the victim of this beating has lost most of her hearing in her left ear and some of the vision in her left eye.
And they let the little monsters out on bail?!?!

You are not being harsh, its the damn truth.
I was talking about this case w/ my study group today and I mentioned how at least one of the mothers was standing up for her daughter, and one of my group members said "who wouldn't stand up for their daughter?" I chimed in and said, "if my daughter was one of the attackers, I am damn sure I would NOT stand up for her. I know that I wouldn't have raised my daughter that way, and there is no way i'd condone that behavior." Harsh as it may sound, but if that was my daugther, she'd have to face the consequences.
Again, this is why i'm a believer in spankings. It might not always stop kids from misbehaving, but at least if they mess up, there'll be consequences.

It also says the people that did the bailing out this time did so without approval, but I don't buy it; I bet the show is just saying that now because it's been made public.
Anway, the show is not going to air.

Well, the kids are "famous", now.  The police released the video. And some girl was asking if she'd be out in time for cheerleading practice?!  Another asked if this would affect her spring break plans, or some such nonsense.
Just WOW. |
Not to be stereotypical here, but you know this was a suburban fight. Had this occurred in an "urban" neighbor hood, there would have been a whole different outcome.

I see what you are trying to say but sometimes it ain't always the case! heh.
