Fox News ^ | March 28, 2011 | Associated Press

FORT MYERS, Fla. – Authorities in southwest Florida say a 17-year-old girl pointed a gun at her mother, pistol-whipped her and forced her to drive to a dealership to buy her a used car.

The sheriff's office in Lee County said Monday that the teen has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill, among other counts, and was being held at a juvenile detention center. The Associated Press doesn't identify minors charged with juvenile crimes.

According to officials, the mother said she didn't want to press charges because her daughter had been accepted to several Ivy League schools.

This is strange. This local article identifies the perpetrator but not the victim, the mother! The child had drugs and the gun in her pocket book. Arrested though the mom did not press charges. She ruined her own life.

Teen pistol-whipped mom to buy her a car

How much did the kid get paid to pistol-whip the mom? Enough to buy a car, I guess.

The clue to the reason she was accepted is the word, "she".

Hopefullly, the State will transfer her case to adult court. At any rate, she will be heard from again. But by then, there will be a good number less of people in the world. Before she reaches 25 years of age, this girl will have killed one or more people./,p> My advice would be to stay the hell away from her. You will probably live a lot longer by doing that, and if you have to have close contact with her, have a "friend" close by.

Sounds to me like an over-achiever who crashed and burned and probably blamed her mother for pushing her too much.

The girl looks like she’s probably from a Filipino family, and they are as focused as any Asian family on having children who excel at everything. This is not a bad thing in itself, but too much pressure can definitely bring on overload in some kids, with seriously bad results...usually, suicide.

I think this brainy little thug has a future in the democratic party. An Ivy league degree later - who knows, she could work for the White House.

She looks Asian. Apparently Asians do well enough on their own, despite being a historically persecuted minority, so they don't get affirmative action benefits.

Lest we forget:

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — The University of Alabama-Huntsville biology professor accused of killing three colleagues fatally shot her brother in Massachusetts more than two decades ago, police said. “Bishop, a Harvard-educated neurobiologist who became an assistant professor at the school in 2003, was taken Friday night in handcuffs to the county jail, and said as she got into a police car: “It didn’t happen. There’s no way. ... They are still alive.”

This speaks well of some with an Ivy League education. So what if the attacker was accepted to SEVERAL Ivy League schools, she’s still nuts.

“had been accepted to several Ivy League schools”

She'll fit right in. She'll be prepared for street theater, demonstrating on behalf of union goons, and other leftist involvement.

Overachiever having a nervous breakdown? I hope that’s it, because the alternative - another Leopold and Loeb in the making - is much more disturbing.

From the time I’ve spent in Fort Myers and Lee County, this story really doesn’t shock me at all.

I agree. But judging by her face, she looks more like she’s seriously flipped out rather than a stone killer. She doesn’t have the arrogant look that most true psycho killers have.

In either case, I hope they keep her under close supervision.

They just don’t make sh*tbags like they used to...

Separate topic, but if the Pakastani hottie is looking for a hideout, my girlfriend said it’s cool if she stays with me, so c’mon over!!!

Well...I left out the part that the “political refugee” is a drop-dead gorgeous hottie with a sexy accent. That would go over like a lead balloon.

Better to ask for forgiveness than permission, right?
OTOH, I can’t very well send her back if she did arrive, eh? ;)

Sadly the liberal commie bastards will probably give her an award for standing up for her Go...d wait, goddess given right to own a car. (that someone else paid for).

Yes, she does have that arrogant look - look closely at her mouth. It hints of a slight smirk. This kid is whacked.

There was some Asian girl a while back who was a brilliant child, talented classical pianist, and an eventual member of Mensa, but she was pushed so hard by her parents that she ran away as a teen and ended up doing porn.
