Exclusive: Violent Brawl Involving Middle School Girls Has Family Demanding Action
CBS ^ | 3/13/2015

Posted on 03/15/2015 7:01:47 AM PDT by Altura Ct.

Cell phones were rolling on a violent brawl involving Homestead middle school girls after school just feet away from school property. But it was anything other than a fair fight.

A girl in pink shorts throws the first punch at 14-year-old Angelina Padron. Padron fights back. That’s when the girl’s friends jump in. They punch, kick and at one point drag Padron by her hair into the street.

The fight is only broken up when a shirtless man from the neighborhood steps in to pick her up.

The situation involving the girls is so tense, a relative of Angelina’s speaking out about the incident did not want to be identified.

“(The video) makes you want to go hurt somebody but you can’t,” he told CBS4’s Natalia Zea.

He says Angelina and her mother immediately reported the fight to Miami-Dade School Police and are pressing charges. The girls were suspended, as was Angelina.

“The principal actually suspended her saying she participated. She should’ve got on the ground and balled up in a ball. When she was on the ground they were kicking her in the head and stomping on her,” he said.

A district spokesperson says her suspension was later overturned, but Angelina’s family wants much more than that.

“The girls didn’t even get kicked out of school, they’re still in school when they said they would kick them out,” said the relative.

The District spokesperson denies that the principal made that promise.

Angelina’s relative believes the school was too easy on the girls, who he says are the same girls posting messages on Facebook identifying themselves as a member of a gang and throwing up signs.

One of their pages boasts, “Me and my sisters don’t know what a one on one is 100 percent. Even if my sister beating life out of somebody, I ain’t gonna watch, I’m gonna beat the life out of that (expletive) too. That’s how we’re raised.”

The incident appears to be bigger than the brawl next to the school.

According to a police report, the mother of one of the girls that was beating up Angelina in that video threatened Angelina’s mother three different times if she pressed charges against her daughter. Angelina’s mother captured cell phone video of one of those alleged threats.

Florida City police say an arrest of that girl’s mother is pending.

A month after the attack on Angelina, someone broke the windows of her home.

“They went over there, they broke the windows, they tried to pry the window open. The police have been called multiple times,” said Angelina’s relative.

One of the girls who he says was part of the videotaped attack on Angelina, later bragged on Facebook about breaking a girl’s windows. Angelina’s family is now trying to save enough money to move.

In the meantime, they feel the school district and police are not doing enough to help them.

“The system is broken,” the relative said.

So is the end of time. The question is which will happen first. My money is on the end of time.

Remember that. That is how they are "raised".

A valuable point.

I don't know how the streets really were in, let's say, the 40s or 50s, but according to Hollywood, individuals would square off while their friends watched. People would not interfere. Often, the fighting skills were taught in a boxing ring down at the Boys Club (perhaps by some Irish priest). There was sportsmanship and honor involved. If someone tapped out (or the equivalent) then the fight was over.

Maybe Hollywood was not at all honest about how things really were -- but Hollywood told people how things were "supposed to be". I mean: that's how I was raised.

Clearly the negroes don't operate that way. At all.

Good to remember that.

If my brother or friend is getting the tar knocked out of him, I am not just going to sit back and watch, and I am not going to do it to turn the tables, simply to extricate him.

But I am not jumping into a one one to turn the tables, and definitely not to increase the damage to one who is already losing.

That’s just me.

The girls all looked to be black - except for the Hispanic girl they were beating up. This level of violence is a serious problem in that population, where they actually are taught this behavior by their parents (or their mothers, at least, since few of them have fathers). And I think it’s gotten worse because of the tacit encouragement from places like the White House.

Thank goodness somebody (black, btw) was decent and rescued the girl.

Not trying to imply anything here, but at one time I taught in a school district that at times had eighth graders who could legally drive to school.

“That’s how we’re raised”

If people would understand and internalize this comment FROM THE SOURCE, perhaps we would never again be subjected to the inevitable comment following feral teen stories of “Where are the parents?”

Who exactly does one think their parents ARE?

Ain’t diversity grand? Another failed wet dream of Liberals who believe putting these savages in school with other children will make the savages civilized. And the civilized children are the ones who suffer, while the Liberal educrats pretend that this brutality isn’t happening under their noses. They continue to cash their fat pay checks and keep their heads down so they can collect their generous pensions.

Perhaps this family will get enough help to move out of this hellhole. Miami-Dade schools are an utter waste of taxpayer money, in the control of gangs whose members will be dead or in prison within ten years.

Sure you can. If more people did less of this **** would happen. Just don’t get caught.

My mother grew up in San Francisco in the ‘40s. She said the Mexican girls were always armed with knives or razors. They’d hide them in their hair for their boyfriends. She said the girls often would use the weapons as well.

How would you like teaching in a school where 25% of the 8th & 9th grade students had ankle bracelets and left school an hour early so they could make their appointments with their parole officers?

I am 62. When we were kids and someone would fight and a friend would jump it, kids would chant “two on one, that’s n***** fun”. I am not talking serious fights - more just messing around, but even way back then, kids knew and there were no blacks in our neighborhood.

“two on one, that’s n***** fun”. I grew up hearing that too. Seems more like 20 on one nowadays.
