Parents in Michigan are terrified over horrifying footage of a fifth-grade girl beating a six-year-old boy and leaving another injured while on a school bus.

The cellphone-shot footage shows the fifth grader throwing punches on the younger student from Ballard Elementary School during the afternoon route home on a Niles School Bus on March 4.

The unidentified students can first be heard arguing, screaming expletives and calling each other names.

Their argument is said to have begun after the boy tried to knock the girl's phone out of her hands.

The situation soon escalates when the young girl gets out of her seat and starts punching the boy over his head.

female student can be heard laughing as the red-jacket wearing girl assaults the boy and informs her that her butt is in the camera.

The female student then tries to take a jab at the young boy and asks: 'You mad cause you got beat up?'

At one point in the video, the boy can be heard yelling at his assaulter to stop, but quickly returns to hurling f-bombs at his assailant.

The red-jacket wearing girl is then seen once again attacking the boy as the video recorder laughs in the background.

Since the video has gone viral, parents have been concerned for their children’s safety and some have even alleged that other children have reported altercations with the young girl as well.

I hope her parents go broke over this.

If they can find the kid's parents, I am certain they are already broke or in jail. Either way, they're living off the goobermint

When I was ten a 15 year old bully used to terrorize me and my 9 year old brother. Then one day when my brother was about 21, he made the mistake of trying to bully him again. By that time my brother was much bigger than the bully and he beat the stuffings out of the bully.

He wasn’t hurt. He was cussing at her. What is the big deal?

“I’d say a six year old being pummeled by a ten/eleven year old is somewhat sadder.”

He wasn’t hurt. Heck, when I was 6 - back in the 60s - I had to deal with bullies who were 10+ year old boys. White boys. And we went at it a lot harder than that!

My youngest was a little twerp when he was 6 to 8 years old but when the high schoolers beat him up on the bus I dealt with the high school boys and their parents personally. Out of earshot of any authorities or recording devices they were all made aware that any further altercations of this nature would be met with swift and extremely unpleasant justice. All of the violent activity ceased and the offending boys were transported to school privately for the remainder of the year. The next year they were enrolled in a private school.

I had more fist fights than I can count. Have crooked nose as a result. They’re still stuck in their past. I moved on.

“Had it happened the child who hit the younger child might have been paddled or suspended or both.”

I was in a lot of playground fights as a kid. 1960s. Military brat. We moved every year so I was always “The New Kid” - and fat. Fighting older BOYS who were, like me, white. A few bloody noses or scrapes. This video wouldn’t even have qualified as a fight.

And to the best of my knowledge, no one was ever punished. I learned to be a little more cautious about what I said. And how to fight.

Folks start teaching your kids and grandkids how to fight and defend themselves. Yes there is racism in this country and is black thugs beating defenseless white kids. Any wonder why white people don’t want anything to do with black neighborhoods.

Another she-boon attacking a little white kid.
Blur the video all you want. We can tell.

The video would not be blurred out if the perp/victim races were swapped.

I don’t get the connection between the two.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

I guess it’s my word association. I used to make Radio Shack electronics kits. They were based in Benton Harbor, if I recall correctly. I haven’t thought about those kits in decades. Seeing “Benton Harbor” triggered some recall of those kits.

Another beating of a white will be justified, ignored, rationalized, and endorsed by the left.

Actually they were based out of Massachusetts. That’s what threw me off. Both Benton Harbor and Niles are econmically depressed and majority African-American. Benton Harbor is 85% black.

I agree with you. If it wasn’t for the DM we wouldn’t know what happens in our country. Here you would be sued as a racist for printing this.
You can be sure this girl learned this behavior at home.

Back in the late ‘70s, our younger son was bullied by some younger boys.
Walking home from the bus stop they would sneak up behind him and take turns shoving him trying to make him fall, then run away.
He was a little chunky at that age and slower on his feet.
Maybe as a mother I shouldn’t have interfered, but I waited where they couldn’t see me and caught them in the act.
I guess I lied a little when I told them that I knew their mothers and if they did it again I would call their parents.
The bullying abruptly stopped and I didn’t have to follow through on the threat.
That was back when parents disciplined their children.
