YouTube Video Of Teen’s Beating Prompts Police Investigation « CBS Chicago Not that anyone should give a shit... But 7 against 1 is very cowardly.
I saw this earlier. A couple of them were found to have facebook pages that have since been deleted. I even saw somewhere where someone posted up two different phone numbers to two of the punk asses. I think its kinda stupid these idiots filmed it and then put it up on the web as if they'd get props or something. Only to find that more than half the people who saw this on the internet wants to kick their asses now.
Haha, oh wow. Facebook: the new downfall of many a stupid criminal. They ganged up on one poor dude; they're in for gangbangs of their own in the joint.
Apparently 1 of them has a father who is a cop. Just a rumor so i can't confirm. I tried watching the video a couple of hours ago. Took 2 sittings. Completely disgusted at these kids. That link will probably go down soon as people keep marking the video as breaking youtube rules. Some of the comments remind me of why i don't have much faith in humanity. Something like "You people need to stfu, there's 2 sides to a story"... Um the kids are teaming up to beat up 1 guy. Screaming racial slurs at him. What other side could there be?!
To be a true netizen, you have to be able to recognize trolling when you see it, and not let it elicit any kind of response on your part.
Honestly, I'm all for it. Well, not the gangbang, but I mean the fact that Youtube & Facebook are helping to screw stupid criminals over. Next best thing to Batman, I'd say.
Of course 7 on 1 is cowardly, that's the point. When you're robbing someone, why take the risk they'll be able to fight back and either injure or incapacitate you, rather than an overwhelming force that all but ensures you get their money and valuables? It's elementary thuggery. But since they filmed this, I'm inclined to think that the motivation was more towards the beating and humiliation, and the robbery was just to add insult to injury. Either way, filming evidence of your crime and putting it on youtube is a great way to grease the wheels of justice.
Facebook caught the guy who was hanging the cats, the chick who was throwing cats into a river. They will catch the 7 moronic idiots who think it's all good to gang up and beat a helpless asian man. That's the thing today. Stupid actions+power of internet=Jail/ other possible repercussions.
The article does say something about this being retaliation for 20 kids beating up 2 kids. If this kid was one of the 20 and this was payback...yes, there is two sides to every story.
And that could very well be the assailants trying to justify why they did what they did. Who knows really what happened and why. But if we're going by anything other than what was on the site, there's also this to consider: *shrugs*....all anyone else who's not in the know can go by is what is shown on the video.
I sadly know people at my school who know the attackers in the video. Two of the unmasked assailants are in a skateboarding club that a kid in my 3rd period is in. With video evidence, them posting the video on their own Facebook, AND 6 of them already in custody, these hell spawn will get what they deserve.
Poor guy. It's people like the pussy's in the video that should be thrown in prison. But its Chicago, so something like this was bound to show up at some point.
Man I saw that earlier. Fucking pussies if you ask me, ganging up on a defenseless kid. I heard that the police arrested one of them already.
Idiots these days. EDIT: I know that this apparently wasn't because of racial reasons, but it's sad to know that this happened on Martin Luther King Jr. day.
