Girls gone wilding

A gang of petite but ornery lesbians pummeled and stabbed a DVD bootlegger in the West Village early yesterday after he tried to pick up one of the women - and then spat on her when she rebuffed his advances, police and witnesses said.
Wayne Buckle, 28, was jumped by the women at 2 a.m. in front of the IFC movie theater on Sixth Ave. after allegedly cursing a 19-year-old gay woman because she rejected him.
"She's my girl, and no one hits on my girl!" one of the women yelled during the bloody beatdown, a police source said.
The women - all from Newark - whipped Buckle with belts before 4-foot-11 Patreese Johnson allegedly stabbed him in the belly with a steak knife, police said.
"He called us [homophobic slur] and he said he was going to f- us all," one of the women said hours later as cops led the seven suspects out of the 6th Precinct stationhouse.
"He spit on us and threw a cigarette," another woman said. "This is a hate crime."
Buckle, a fixture on W. Third St. and Sixth Ave., was in critical but stable condition at St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan's intensive care unit with tubes snaking into his mouth and his eyes swollen shut.
Witnesses said Buckle, who lives in Queens, had approached Johnson as the Newark women walked by the movie theater, witnesses said.
When Buckle hit on Johnson, she explained that she wasn't interested in men. Apparently offended, he spat on her, witnesses said.
Moments later, Johnson's six friends - ranging in age from 18 to 31 - pounced, police said.
Johnson allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed Buckle.
"He was in agony. He was bleeding a lot," said Diego Rodriguez, 60, who works at a nearby newsstand and called 911. "He made the mistake of spitting at one of them. They beat him up bad with belts, kicked and punched him."
Johnson allegedly tossed the knife under a nearby car as the group sprinted toward W. Fourth St., where they were apprehended by cops, police said.
All the women were charged with gang assault and criminal possession of a weapon. They were awaiting arraignment last night.
Is there any other kind?
Huge and ornery.
WOW .. libs are such peaceful folks ... I can just feel the love in the air
Lie down in the gutter, you come up with fleas. Lie down there and spit on the other residents, you get your ass kicked.

Gotta Love Those Newark Lesbians!
They don't take crap from nobody.
And they call themselves "gay."
The women -- all from Newark, N.J. -- whipped Buckle with belts before 4-foot-11 Patreese Johnson allegedly stabbed him in the belly with a steak knife, police said.
What a sweet bit of irony that is.
Seriously, with the exception of being stabbed, it sounds like the guy was an a-hole and the beating was well-deserved. Who the hell spits on a chick and throws a cigarette at her after being turned down?
At first I thought it said "A gang of petite but horny lesbians."
As a hetero woman, if Id been out on the town with my hetero girlfriends and this jerk hit on us like he did on them; spitting, throwing a lit cigarette and threatening sexual assault, hed probably gotten much the same response. OK so like we probably wouldnt have stabbed him but we sure would have humiliated or emasculated him.
And I do remember back in the day, telling more than one obnoxious and unwanted nightclub suitor that I was gay (because I learned telling these guys I was married didnt work but then sometimes the gay thing just made them more excited) or Id give him my phone number just to get rid of him but it was actually the number for the VD or womans shelter hotline.
Did you ever think that this 300-pound friend was not really her girlfriend but riding shotgun to ensure that her drunken friend didnt take off in a sports car with a drunken sailor or marine or soldier or whatever branch you were in?
I knew a lot of hetero female friends who would (and some still do) go to the gay clubs to dance because 1) they play the best dance music and have the best DJs 2) the best dance floors and sound systems and 3) as a female you can dance and party and pretty much stay unmolested. Of course back when the gay clubs didnt have too many lesbians.
And a single girl might meet a great gay boyfriend. This is the gay guy who is just manly enough to pass for straight, can lift heavy things, move furniture, might even have some carpentry skills but isnt interested in sex and likes to talk, shop, decorate and watch chick flicks. Think Will & Grace? And with my recent bad experiences with hetero guys I might be ready for the gay boyfriend.
Wow!We went to them because we were not old enough to get a drink in a reguler bar.I can assure you,the girl and I had some good vibes going on till her girlfriend came along.And I definately would not have offered her a ride if I knew she was gay to begin with.As far as the 'dancing'and such,who cared.I was trying to get some action,not become an activist.At the time,decorating houses was not in the cards.You may be right.You may need a gay boyfriend.
So they beat him up and stab him, and the one wants him charged with a hate crime?
