OPINION PIECE:

I had planned only to report the news today, but with this article it's just impossible.  So now it's become an opinion piece - surprise surprise. ;)

Abusing the intent or purpose of a product, or using that item for a desiderata other than intended, spoils it for those who do tow the line or follow rules.

YouTube is used by all kinds of people and watched by millions.  But these days it seems as if our youth are pre-planning sensational events and taping them, in order to make a grab for their 15 minutes of fame.

Has the anti-Christ  of web sites (also known as MySpace) led to a violent attack with the porpose[sic] of posting video of the attack on Youtube?

Thant[sic] is the opinion of the father of a bashing victim.

At 8:30pm on March 30th outside 6124 West Calendar Court in Lakeland in Texas, eight youths; six girls and two boys, lay in diabolical wait for 16 year old unsuspecting Victoria Lindsay to arrive at a friend's house.

The following brutes/sadists/cowards have been identified and charged:

April Cooper;
Cara Murphy;
Britney Mayes;
Brittini Hardcastle;
Kayla Hassell;
Mercades Nichols;
Zachary Ashley;
Stephen Schumaker.

The girls were aged between 14 and 17, while the boys were aged 16 and 18 and lived on the same street where the attack took place.  The boys did not take part in the beating, but did stand watch outside for the six girls.

There were multiple video clips taken of the beating, using more than one camera.  To date, the police have only managed to track one of the cameras down.

These cretins posted their video not just on YouTube, but also on MySpace - the social networking site that is more chaos than interesting and populated with young contributors.

That video, which was made available to the media, shows several girls taunting and hitting Lindsay, who was not seen fighting back.
The arrest report reveals that two of the girls yelled and threatened her as they followed behind her into the home of a girl, who also took part in the beating

At the same time, another girl beat her in the head repeatedly, finally slamming her head into a bedroom wall, finally knocking her unconscious.

The beating was far from over yet.

When Lindsay awoke, she knew that they had carried her over to the couch in the living room.  Looking up into the looming, sadistic, laughing and sneering faces of her attackers, Lindsay's heart must have been racing with fear at what was to come next.

The teens blocked the door, held Lindsay down and began beating her, the report said. Two teenage boys waited outside the home as lookouts.

Sheriff Grady Judd reported hearing on the tape:“There's only 17 seconds left. Make it good!"

That is animalistic behavior. It's pack mentality. They lured her there to beat her."
On the video you can hear the girls cheering each other on and begging Lindsay to "fight back!"

Lindsay's father, Patrick, is reportedly furious with the internet companies (read: MySpace) who post videos.  He said:

“I'm very upset with these internet companies as far as I'm concerned My Space is the anti-Christ for children."]
Now that's an interesting description!

Interestingly, part of the video had been hosted on Tampa Bay's 10.com, but has now been pulled - without explanation.

The Polk Country Sheriff's office told that when the attack was finally over, three of the kids forced Lindsay into a car where they freed her.

They warned her not to call law enforcement or she would be beaten even worse.

Something MUST be done about the many serious and violent crimes perpetrated in our society by children.  We simply can't view these "children" as minors any longer and they MUST be tried as adults.

Violence perpetrated by our youth is on the rise probably for a variety of reasons that can't actually be pinned down yet.  Anger, is an emotion which teenagers seem to be experiencing more and more these days.

Half the time, I don't think they even know what they're angry about themselves but will still take out their anger and frustrations with violence that seriously damage people physically, or even fatally.

Just take a look at the rise in school shootings we've had to date:

This is truly frightening.

Talisa (Lindsay's mother) and Patrick worry constantly now because Lindsay is having nightmares and refuses to return to high school.  There's also the strong possibility that Lindsay has permanent damage to one ear and eye.

She will no doubt need a lot of counseling and an ocean's worth of love and tender care.

Patrick, Lindsay's father, went on to say that when he saw his daughter in the emergency room, he didn't recognize her at all. "It was that bad."

Sheriff Judd is calling it one of the most disturbing videos he has seen in a long time and he hopes all those arrested will be tried as adults. They face charges ranging from felony battery, false imprisonment to kidnapping. The sheriff says the attackers "were relentless."
The eight teens have showed absolutely no remorse after their arrests, even though they might face prison time.

According to Sheriff Judd, they were all laughing when they were in the holding cell.  One of the girls was a cheerleader and asked:

'Does this mean I'm going to miss cheerleading practice tomorrow?' The others were cutting up and said, 'It looks like we won't be going to the beach this weekend.'"
When I showed David these videos this morning, he was as disgusted as I was and said; "humans really are just monkeys throwing poo."

Much of the time, I think that's fairly accurate.

I've uploaded several videos but I DO WARN YOU, that the images are graphic, even though the most violent scenes according to Judd, have been cut out.
