Five arrested in vicious, videotaped beating of defenseless student (MLK High)

--snip-- The cellphone video shows the boy cowering under the blows of a gang attack, and rolling into a ball to protect himself from being repeatedly kicked and punched. At one point, a male hits him in the face with a traffic cone, breaking his teeth.

"This kid was an innocent person, he had done nothing to anybody," said Capt. Malachi Jones of the Philadelphia police.

The attack happened two weeks ago as the boy was walking home from school. His tormentors, who were fellow students at Martin Luther King High School, can be heard laughing and yelling as all five wail their fists and feet.

The Hyenas take down another peaceful gazelle minding its business. We need to clear out the Svelte of all Hyenas.

From your lips to God’s ears.

All these videos today make me kneel in humble thanks to God that I was not raised in one of these hopeless violent communities filled with feral Hyenas. I would probably be the type of guy who is “acting white” and wind up dead from it.

I find it adorable that these young men are going to “school” in the middle of summer though.

The honors student is probably taking an extra class for enrichment. But I guarantee you that the rest of those kids (the thugs) are in summer school because they did absolutely no work during the normal school year. So summer school is a make-up time for them.

By the way, this is one reason why many urban students know so little. They fail during the nine-month school year, then the district allows them to make it up during a two-month summer session. And no, the summer session is not accelerated. It's just a way to get full credit for partial work.

After some jail time, the thugs should be forced to wear something like this for about 5 years. Our courts are failures. If people with common sense took over, there would be a lot less of this bs. some_text

I was just funnin ya Bert ;’)

I too spend more of my time wistfully looking backward. There isn’t much worth celebrating anymore - but there’s plenty to mourn.

The linked article says "mistaken identity".

When "honor student" is used, I can't help but think of "The Bonfire of the Vanities" as a first response.

However, regardless, the kid might shown some aspect of civilization that his "soul brothers" couldn't abide.

Four things you don't do:
  1. Jaywalk across the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Memorial day

  2. Hang a picture frame above your bed in California

  3. Buy a house on Riverfront Drive in the Midwest

  4. Take your lover out for a date on Martin Luther King Blvd.

The American people are on the liberal track forever now: nothing will show them the error of their ways.

My understanding is that any city that uses MLK for the name of anything has to pay the King Foundation to do so. I don’t know if it’s a one-time payment, regular payment, or negotiated.

Well, to paraphrase the late great Senator Roman Hruska of NE: even alley cats need a little representation too.

Another article said they beat him because he was an honor student; a vicious black on black beating.

The video is a couple of weeks old so there were probably still in school. Maybe beating the hell out of another kid was their senior prank.

Didn’t need to watch the video but it proved these were more of obama’s sons. We never see any videos of white kids beating down black kids. It’s always black thugs on whites or black thugs on blacks. This country didn’t have this problem to such an extent before the usurper.
