According to Temple security, a group of over 150 juveniles coordinated a “meet up” on Instagram, amassing on Broad Street near the campus at approximately 8 p.m.

Four youths, ranging in ages between 14 and 17, were arrested in connection with wide-ranging attacks on Temple students, others in the crowd, and two Temple police officers that seemed to mimic the “flash mobs” that hit Center City in recent years.

In one incident, police say a group of three that included two students were assaulted by a group of about 20 juveniles. The trio were kicked, punched, and knocked to the ground. One of the students, Christina Lauletta, was hospitalized at St. Mary’s Hospital, according to her father.

“These sick animals held her down and kicked and stomped on her repeatedly,”

Police haven’t released any further information about the suspects due to their ages race.

There. Fixed it.

So, did Social Justice Whiner snowflakes get to attend the college of hard knocks? And did they learn anything about the real world?

And those that held her down? The same, or “accessory to”?

Temple University confirmed that a proposed 35,000-seat football stadium with an estimated cost of $100 million is being pursued for the northwest corner of campus. That area has been the focus of recent activity, and bills under consideration in City Council propose the construction of buildings that could clear space for a new stadium.

A friend of mine’s daughter did three years there for a nothing degree. Horrorshow location whith crack houses surrounding dorms. Horrible, I would never send a student there, and if I had a child there, I would pull them out.

Same thing for certain famous university in New Haven. And dozens of other inner city colleges and universities in lousy neighborhoods.

How to train kids to be prey.

If they don’t say what race they are, you know what race they are.

If you click through to the dad's Facebook post... he doesn't hold back...

From his FB post:

I spent last night in the ER at St. Mary's HospitaI. I received a call from my daughter Christina after my sons football game. She was crying, I couldn't understand her, my heart dropped, I became scared, I said what is the matter? Dad, I was jumped, I'm beat up pretty bad. Where r u? Temple, they stole my phone. We're heading to the police station. I do not hear from her until she gets to her apartment. Rage is running through my mind the whole time. She said she is getting a ride home and wants to go to St. Mary's. I find out that her and her 2 male friends where badly beaten by a group of 30-40 black teenagers on their way home from the Temple football game. This happened after they got off the subway at Broad and Cecil B Moore. These sick animals held her down and kicked and stomped on her repeatedly. Thank god, the people from the pizza place intervened. They arrested 2 people at the scene. I have not let Christina out of my sight, she is resting. Every part of her body is badly bruised, it makes me cry just thinking about it. No broken bones. If you have children at Temple, tell them to be careful. Please keep Christina Lauletta in your thoughts.

20 years or so one of my cousins from Greece was over here checking out colleges to attend, and one of them was Temple. She needed my dad to go pick her up from the campus, and she was shocked to see that he was carrying two .45 ACPs and a .38 when he arrived.

My son toured Temple and applied there, but did not get accepted. Not sure if he would have gone there anyway, but he applied for their engineering degree program and there were limited spots, unlike some of their other majors.

He was considering it because 5 of his close guy friends were (and currently are) going there.

I must admit when I toured the campus with him, I was OK with it and their facilities and academics. While you are within the enclave of the campus, you don't realize where you are and you feel pretty safe. It doesn't even feel like a big city campus.

But venture out a block or two off campus into North Philly and the reality of where you are becomes apparent.

Young kids have an attraction to the city, and they start to ignore the potential danger situations and get over confident and cocky, and that's when it slaps them in the face.

“Teen, juvenile, youth” are all MSM code words for feral black inner-city types.

Understand the code and you understand the story. Simple. But just don’t say the words “black or African-American” because that constitutes racism and makes you a racist. (Sad but true. Most the pity.)

See, this is a PERFECT answer to the gun grabbers question...

Why do you have to have a gun that shoots 30 rounds..?

“Philly teens” and “French youths” are both euphemisms for the race and religious faith that shall not be named.

And all except the clueless know that Temple is located in Northeast Philadelphia, in the middle of a heavily black neighborhood.

Not Northeast Philadelphia. North Philadelphia. The neighborhood was originally central and eastern European: German, Polish, Ukrainian and Lithuanian. Then in the Fifties, it all began to change. Today the neighborhood’s inhabitants refer to it as “the jungle.”

***police say a 16-year-old came up to a mounted officer and punched the police horse twice***

In the days of old, horses were trained to attack and kick on command.
Can you imagine a bunch of thugs attacking a horse that was biting, pawing and kicking with iron shod shoes!
