A group of teen girls pummeled a female straphanger in Brooklyn when she shook her head disapprovingly as they harassed an elderly woman, authorities said.

What’s a straphanger?

One who is having to stand owing to no seat being available. Typically there are straps to hold onto to help you keep ypur balance.

A “straphanger” is someone who rides public transportation in a big city (esp. NYC). Buses and subway trains used to have leather straps attached the overhead; riders would hold them (hang from them, really) and sway with the movements of the vehicle instead of falling on their butts.

Obviously, Hillary’s village and the welfare system have produced generations of sociopaths and whiners who are society’s do-nothing, destructive entity with no morals.

Were those ‘terrible teens’ space aliens? I’m substituting space aliens for Amish...

It is about time we start calling a “Spade” a “Spade” ... being politically correct on a group like this is a waste of breath.

Speaking of media silence, has ANYONE HEARD ANYTHING about the man shot dead while attempting to kill the patrolman on I-10 in Arizona?
All I’ve heard is he may be a suspect in a highway shooting near the California line and NOTHING MORE!

If you have a friend or loved one suffering from TURD, urge them to seek treatment.

Most of my family members are currently afflicted with TURD. I'd urge them to seek treatment, but they'd probably come burn my house down.

I have a feeling everyone is in on the “teens” joke. Everyone knows what it means. And since reporters can’t say “black thugs” they’ll continue using “teens” since everyone knows what they’re referring to.

...everyone is in on the “teens” joke.

As it was pointed out by people commenting on the kidnap/torture Chicago story, the victim was a white teen, and the LSM referred to him as an adult.

The same exact thing happened on a train I was on in 1990. They switched to me when they saw my disapproval of their frightening an old woman. I doubt they (4 punks) said a WORD to one another on the way home...

Yeah. . .but if you are reading the narrative you would never know. It is a media standard practice to never mention the race of the thugs.
