Prepare to see a disturbing video of young people at their worst. This clip of middle schoolers allegedly abusing a bus monitor is so disgusting, so bothersome that it will leave many wondering what has gone awry in our society. Of course, it is merely one of the many tragic, anecdotal instances of human cruelty that we so often see today. The unbelievable clip is painful to watch, as it shows alleged students from Greece Athena Middle School in Rochester, New York (my hometown) take their abuse to horrific levels.
The woman purportedly shown in the video, Karen Huff Klein, 68, is victimized incessantly, as students spew insults and obscenities at her. Throughout the clip, the children can be heard in the background calling her fat, threatening her and making fun of her hairstyle, among other sentiments. Astonishingly, the abuse continues for more than 10 minutes.
Of course, this description is mild when compared to hearing the actual words used in the clip. As can be viewed and heard above, the children told Klein that she looks like a troll and that she should shut the f**k up when she tried to defend herself.
Heres a selection of some of the other grotesque comments that were thrown Kleins way in the first minute of the clip:
Fat ass.
Oh my God, youre so fat.
You take up like the whole entire seat.
Put those glasses back on. I cant stand looking at your face.
When the woman tells the kids that she is crying (presumably as a result of their attacks) they refuse to relent. In fact, one kid can be heard saying that shes shedding tears because she probably misses her box of Twinkies. Heres more:
You have refluxes of an elephant, another child can be heard saying.
Shes going to pick out which kid shes going to rape next, another quipped.
Shes going to die of diabetes, because shes so damn fat, said another.
At moments, the youths even poked and attempted to touch the woman, as she sat, for the most part quietly, and allowed their abuse to continue.
If I stabbed you in the stomach, my knife would go through you like butter because its all f**king water, another kid said.
Among the comment that hurt the most, Klein told WHAM-TV that one childs statement that she is so ugly that her kids should kill themselves was particularly hurtful. Her son committed suicide 10 years ago.
Yes. But the parent should be considered the First Teacher-—and it is the parent’s call—homeschool, get groups to form co-ops, one room school houses. Certification is eliminated since it just means government trained Change Agents (change the Christian Ethics to Marxist radical egalitarianism where men are women)-—Parents secure the curricula and Marxists curricula/skinner/Pavlovian psychological databases they have on all students is destroyed since it is unconstitutional-—(homeschool organizations have the best curricula which is not Godless).
Morals and Virtues are embedded into all the Classical Great Books. It is why the Marxists/Socialists /Dewey kicked it out-—so they could destroy Virtue in children—intentionally. ONE Standard of Right and Wrong—God’s—where our Rights originate.
All Western Civ knew Virtue is necessary for a Free Republic and there are Universal Truths—Moral Absolutes. They must be taught to all citizens who are by necessity—Under God (if they expect Rights) in this country.
Atheists should be tolerated but belittled in media-—the opposite is happening in this Anti-God culture now. Atheism takes more faith than Theism. It is not logical and Anti-American-—and we were founded in the Age of Reason. Founders did not tolerate Atheists as jurists. We need to get back to the Founding principles which made this country the most successful in the history of man.
Atheists can’t believe in Objective Truth and that is necessary for a belief in Natural Rights from God.
That’s New York for ya!
Good! Glad to hear it. Even the children of good parents can be corrupted when they're away from them 6-8 hours a day.
My son also reports that this sort of behavior is the tip of the iceberg
The cruelty exhibited by those students didn't surprise me at all. I remember witnessing that type of cruelty (and far worse) regularly when I was growing up. Sadly, these kids probably will always think that way, even if they learn not to behave that way openly. Thanks for sharing what your son learned locally.
I’m so glad to hear a dad step up and say what his kid did was wrong.
I’m still confused why the bus driver didn’t know what was going on?
I know there will be those who have excuses as to why they do, but I just don’t get why any one would want their kids at a public school now.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Because they are in a state of denial, totally addicted to the free babysitting, and rationalize that their child’s government interment camp ( oops! “school”) is “different”!
Like it or not, children need a parent to raise them, not an impersonal non parent. I’m sorry if that bothers you.
Bus drivers are really limited in what they can do.
No adult can touch the kids without major repercussions.
I don’t know what he could do to stop it while he’s driving the bus short of stopping the bus and refusing to go anywhere until the kids settle down.
The parents ARE raising them. I assume you follow your children to school? Stand next to their desk? Sit at their lunch table?
No, worse, I actually took responsibility for my own children, and their education, which I know you loathe.
yes indeed, video with redundant copies.
Don’t forget the media; videos (commercial and otherwise)
and TV shows. I’m not knowledgeable on either but I believe
the latter have gotten more offensive and sarcastic for
twenty years. Also, busing exposed a wide range of kids
to common forms of verbal abuse, and once exposed this
perpetrates itself in the kids culture. BTW, those thus
exposed include all races.
