Britain's Got Talent star Susan Boyle is being cruelly taunted, intimdated and attacked by a gang of youths, it was reported last night.

Witnesses have claimed singing sensation Boyle, who suffers from Asperger Syndrome, is being 'hounded' by a group of 15 young people who live near her in West Lothian, Scotland.

The gang of mainly boys is said to have thrown a flaming piece of paper at her in one attack and pelted the buses she was riding on with stones in another.

Some one needs to kick a bit of arse, regardless of race, creed or color.

Throw rocks at passing cars and trucks and it's felonious assault. Cause injury or death and your ass is grass.

In the United States, rock-throwing could be a felony[14][15] and rock-throwers could face criminal charges, dependent on the circumstances that may include second degree murder,[16] aggravated assault, throwing a missile into an occupied vehicle, criminal possession of a weapon, reckless endangerment of life, and aggravated assault with a lethal weapon.[10][17][18] Punishment upon conviction varies as with all punishments for all crimes. A Florida judge sentenced a teenager to serve life in prison for throwing rocks at cars.[16]

A New England judge, ruling on teenagers convicted of throwing stones at passing trains, at windows, resulting in eye injuries to passengers, sentenced them to be kept in an eye-injury ward of a hospital for two weeks with their eyes bandaged, in order to make them understand the consequence of their delinquency.[19]

Rock throwers can be charged, tried and convicted even when no injuries or damage result.[20]

They hate her because she is beautiful.

The whole country has evidently gone crazy. From the article (emphasis is mine):

The abuse is getting so bad that the 56-year-old's representatives are said to be considering calling the police to ensure her safety.

Dear Susan: Hire security. You can afford it. Let them deal with the lowlifes.

I am willing to place a $100.00 bet that it was Muzzie youth.

If it was white kids, the Daily Mail would have told us right away.

Because she is Scots.

English and Scots are different races.

So if a group of English yobs were harassing her is would be a racial thing.

One woman, who says the gang are known to the community, said they racially abused her and threw a bottle which almost struck her on the head.

I'm guessing most people wouldn't think it racial abuse if it's a bunch of white Scottish kids harassing Susan Boyle. So, what else might this be?

I doubt they’re anything but U.K. youths, ready and willing to inflict cruelty on another human.

Same race, different nationality.

“...gang of boys, aged 16 to 18,...”

Boys? I don’t think so. They are close enough to adulthood that to call them boys is misleading. I bet they all have juvie records as long as their arms.

English and Scots are different races.

How the heck do figure that? No. They are NOT different races. Blacks and whites are different races. Arab is even considered white; so is Mexican or Hispanic in general and so are Asians.

Because it is true.

Sorry if it offends your modern sensibilities but there are a number of races in Europe; Celt, Slavic, Germanic, Gaulish, Basque and Sami to name a few.

Nope. Different races.

Just ask them.

She’s White and the yutes aren’t.

So then, I can check multi racial on race section on official paperwork ?

I consider them more as ethnic groups rather than distinct races. Now the Sami are interesting, btw.
