(ad before video)

The video of the kid getting punched is sooo hard to watch. Frown



If this were my child, I would sue the school, the parents of the kid that hit him, AND the kids that cheered. Mad

If that happened to my kid, heads would roll.

I'd tell my son when he gets older and has a nice job to go back to the town and find this kid working at mcdonalds. Just point and laugh.
I wouldn't

Quote from MsGal :
Television, movies, video games .... life in general; there is so much violence, kids have been desensitized. For some of them, compassion is the last thing on their mind. They would rather whip out their phone and get a "great" video of some kid getting beaten to death (or nearly so), than they had pick up a chair and defend the underdog from the bully.

It breaks my heart.
Ah yes. Before Television and video games, Children were angels and never got in fights. The school yard was just an abundance of compassion with children frolicking about, hugging everyone and sharing their things... shake head The fact that you couldn't record a fight on your cell phone meant that the fights never happened and the fact that the internet didn't exist to give you the news from every bumf*ck nowhere town, meant that nothing negative ever happened in those towns.

Ignorance is bliss isn't it?

That's so awful. Kids are assholes.

Quote from cav :
all those violences have existed long before now. Scarface came out in '81, Godfather series started in '72, Mortal Kombat was released in '92, Duke Nukem in '91. look at the violence in Looney Tunes?

the TV, movie, and video game argument is a cop-out.
Iagree

Plus, violence goes back much further than that. We're a very violent species in general. We start a new war every couple of decades! That's all we show on the news - death and destruction. Who wants to see anything else?

It's not the threads fault, it was the dumb comment.

FTR though, the video games hypothesis hasn't really been found to have much weight:

You implied the comments made about TV and video games (specifically mine) were a result of creating this thread which was wrong. He pointed out that the thread was fine, it was the dumb comment made after the fact that sparked the backlash which is right.

You lose.
