There are major new developments today in the case of a supposed beating of a student from Athens Middle School.

Charges are being filed against 13 year old Melanie Bowers by Athens ISD through the Henderson County District Attorney's office for filing a false report, said AISD officials today.

Bowers claimed earlier this week that she was beaten and threatened - with killing and rape, no less - by a group of students at Athens ISD last Friday, for creating a protest sign saying, "If you love our nation, stop illegal immigration."

After Melanie's accusations, administrators reviewed school survellience videotape of the incident - which, instead of showing students beating or attacking her, showed Bowers scratching herself on her arms, face, and neck, and walking through the halls of the school calmly long after she claimed the incident happened

This is terrible. I guess we shouldn't try to control our borders now?

Why have you started more than one thread on this?

Who said we shouldn't control our borders? I guess in your Absolut world, this consciously perpetuated hoax would have never happened.

I thought you did? Maybe I misheard you?

Just to be clear, you think we should control our borders?

Next time, some might want to verify that the story is true before jumping to conclusions.

Which conclusions did some jump to? That illegals go to that school? That students sometimes attack other students? That students sometimes lie about attacks? That some illegals react poorly to signs like the one she displayed?

I saw nothing about Michelle Malkin in any of this post. I read the headline and the blurb and the article and still don’t know where this took place. I wondered at first if it were Athens, Greece (the only Athens that deserves to be mentioned w/o stating anything further regarding locality).

This is more proof that Hispanics and illegal immigrants are being scapegoated in today’s America.

Aye Chihuahua!

Interesting development. For once, you get a chalk mark on your side of the board. Must feel pretty good. Had I been on your side of the board, I’d feel pretty good about it too. Absolut! ly

Is the below your world?

JMO, the above was not Ronald Reagan's world.

That wall was to keep Germans in. The wall we want is to keep foreigners out.

What do you mean out of the way? Are you going to follow Ronald Reagan's legacy or not.

Many jumped to the conclusion that the girl was actually attacked and threatened

Well, she said she was. What jump was needed?

and that her attackers were illegal.

Right, she said they were Hispanic, some jumped to the conclusion they were illegal. Do any illegals go to that school?

Apparently, you are stilling jumping to the conclusion that the latter is true.

She wasn't attacked. How could she have been attacked by illegals?

Where is your proof?

Of what?
