Florida Teens Tape Beating of Girl Eight teenagers have been arrested
MyFoxColorado ^ | April 8, 2008

Posted on 04/08/2008 9:23:08 AM PDT by Dane

LAKELAND, Fla. - You can hear the girls yelling and threatening the 16-year-old as the punches are thrown. On March 30 Victoria Lindsay endured several beatings, girls hitting her over and over again in the head, knocking her unconscious, then attacking again as she comes to. Eight teenagers have been arrested after filming the beating and threatening to post the video on the Internet (video: MyFoxTampaBay), sheriff's officials said.

"She just didn't deserve to be beat down like a dog," said Patrick Lindsay, the victim's father.

"When you see your daughter, who's not striking back to defend herself, and someone keeps coming at you like that -- it's just, it's a horrible thing," added Talisa Lindsay, the victim's mother.

Hmm, a similar incident of teen violence in Texas gets headline status on FR but this equally violent incident gets crickets by michelle malkin and her fans on FR.

A more proper response from the victim’s father:

“Expect there to be about eight more dead teenagers in our fair town very soon”.

Most of those girls are going to be presented a dilemma later in their lives. That is, when is a diet pill worth $110.49?

Those girls would have had a real problem with my daughter and very likely would have ended with several being treated at the local hospital.

Try ‘em all as adults and throw ‘em all in jail for at least 15 years.

The “juvenile Justice System” has outlived its udefulness. Kids don’t steal hubcaps anymore.

Lock ‘em up in real prison. Put the killers on the table and give ‘em the needle, whether they’re 10 or 20.

And JMO, but why should this story be less important than the equally disturbing teen violence story in Texas.

Again JMO, there is no crass, sterotypical, and cynical political point to make, and thus michelle malkin's silence on this incident, as she ignores the wider problem that affects all ethnicities, and that is teen viloence..

Someone got stabbed in New York last night. I notice that neither you nor Michelle posted anything about it.

Oh, and there was a bar-fight in Flint, Michigan. Still looking in vain for commentary from either of you.

I do find it SICK that Fox News would put THIS clip online and yet won’t show beheadings videos or death footage from the WTC attacks.

We are told that those clips cannot be seen out of “respect” for the families of the victims.

Did they “clear this” release of the video or is it a case of chaos for ratings?

There is much more to learn about Islamic tyranny from the other clips than about the feral pack mentality of teenagers posting their “extreme” assault videos online.

Lock up the teens. We don’t need to see their handiwork.

So Michelle has to write about every assault?

And if she is racist, what races does she hate and what races does she like?

What race is she? And is she a traitor to her own minority status?

Michelle is looking for one thing and that is green, and, IMO, she gets her green from people like you, while she writes her selective and politically tinged articles, with ethnic overtones, while ignoring the real problem that strides all ethnicities and that is teen violence.

Beatings by illegals are preventable by...oh, I don’t know...enforcing the law.

Why do you like illegal aliens so much? Why do you favor breaking American law?

None of them will go to prison. They will have Daddy get a lawyer and plea bargain this down to a misdemeanor, then get probation or a warning.

But this kind of mean teenager will stay mean, and will try to take out their frustration over their court ordeal on the victim, who is already terrified.

They probably won't beat her again, because then they would go to jail, but they can make life hell for the victim at school.

I would never suggest that someone should give these mean girls a life-changing scare over this, but it wouldn't upset me either.

WeeGee, bingo! Fox (and everybody else) needs to stop showing footage of violence just because they have footage. And that goes for the semi-porn stuff too.

If we are going to have to look at graphic sex or violence, then let’s watch the stuff which ACTUALLY has an effect on our lives - the filth put out by AlQaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, IranianTV, AgenceFrenchPress, BBC, etc. And lets see the beheadings and the rapes and the torture. Maybe that will convince the other half of the country that this is not some game and that there are more important things to look at that ethically-challenged cheerleaders smacking each other around.

Last I saw Michelle Malkin was not Greta Van Susteren. It’s not her job to report on every single news-making crime to come along. Besides, other conservative commentators already have it covered. Both Schnitt and Beck covered this incident quite in-depth yesterday afternoon and this morning, beating you by several hours. So your entire argument is based on singling out a commentator for not beating the same drum at the exact same time, after lying about the story not being covered here on FR? That’s one bang-up job of crack reporting on your part Dane.

He’s just pissed that Michelle would dare give attention to the crimes of pro-illegal thugs. This post of his is really quite shameless about it. Reporting a white-on-white beating? Fine. white-on-latino? Fine. latino-on-white? You’re a racist for mentioning it... Nevermind that plenty of other conservative political commentators have already covered this. I guess he doesn’t realize a columnist’s job is to selectively report what they feel is important.

“Michelle is looking for one thing and that is green, and, IMO, she gets her green from people like you, while she writes her selective and politically tinged articles, with ethnic overtones, while ignoring the real problem that strides all ethnicities and that is teen violence. “

Nonsense. Michelle points out the double standard of MSM applies to hate crimes. When a white commits a hate crime against a black, e. g. Imus, all hell breaks loose in the media. When a minority commits a hate crime against a white, the MSM is muted if the incident is reported at all.

Not to mention the frequency of black on white crime is far greater than white on black. Unless you studied crime statistics, you wouldn’t know that.
