They were at a white supremacist rally.

A church group charity fund raising event had just let out and the African American volunteer teens had just left.

That explains the racial disparity.

No, they cannot work as they are “students”. This fight was actually between two high school philosophical societies over whether Hegel or Kant had the right approach to analyzing the issue of whether there is life on other planets. The debate got a bit boisterous, as can often happen when you mix the zest of youth with advanced scholarship.

At least one of his arms is occupied doing no harm holding up his pants.

That’s why Chicago Police are hesitant to yell “Drop it!” to a perp.

[dsrtsage]

The large groups of young people, many of them high school students "Teens"

[Lent]

Where ‘s Snake Plissken?

[bk1000]

I wonder if there were any distinguishing characteristics to these “teens”.

[taxcontrol]

The ferals are felling frisky.

[frank ballenger]

Funny one.

Also funny that I didn’t recognize something like that started all this.

[PghBaldy]

These type of black mobs seemed to just sprout up, across the nation, since Obama was in office. I blame Obama.

[litehaus]

“bell curve.”

Wat dat be ?

[C210N]

New rallying cry:

“Hands Holding Up Pants, Don’t Shoot!”

[RummyChick]

This has been going on for awhile.

Secondcity blog had a recent incident . i think its called “wilding”

[hanamizu]

moving the crowd along to public transportation,

Ah, public transit. How they got downtown and how they’re gotten out of downtown. On the upside, CTA no doubt saw an increase of fares for all the extra ridership. I’m just kidding—I doubt they paid fares.

How many euphemisms can you dream up for "feral"? I count nine in the excerpt alone.

1. young people
2. high school students
3. twenty males and six females
4. juveniles
5. large group
6. they
7. someone
8. crowd
9. people

Do newsrooms have contests to see which reporter can score the highest?

[ProtectOurFreedom]

I hope all the dropped Subway sandwiches were given to the homeless.

[Cubs Fan]

Twenty males and six females — all juveniles — were taken into custody, most of them charged with disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor, and [u]released to their parents,[/u] a police spokesman said Thursday morning.

I wonder if their fathers were upset with them. HA HA HA

[exPBRrat]

You can’t civilize the perfect voter group.

[ealgeone]

Gotta give’em room to protest per the mayor of Baltimore.

[Bonemaker]

Chicago wilding

[JayAr36]

Actually they don’t need to be given room. They are taking it.
