A 15 year old California girl was gang-raped at a school sponsored dance for more that two hours... AND NOBODY SAID ANYTHING! I hope life in prison at least for the older dipshits is pure hell on earth. The younger boys maybe deserve a break as long as castration is an option...

    This is mighty effed up and speaks volumes about where that community as a whole is with regard to the evolutionary scale. That behavior is inexcusable and death is too light a punishment for any directly involved. Prison is too easy for those that turned a blind eye.

    This sort of thing (and so much worse) happens every day in Africa and the middle east. But in our own country? We should be just as appalled at that, btw.

    I feel so sorry for that young girl and her parents. No, she shouldn't have been drinking. But that does not excuse or explain the behavior of the rest of those people.

    This is sad on so many levels.

    and people wonder why i keep a tight leash on my daughter.

    I would be spending the rest of my life in prison if this ever happened to my daughter. I would be judge and jury.

    I was shocked by the story... outraged would be more accurate actually. I know that others post about bad things as well for discussion or comment, so did not think I would be out of bounds doing so with this. I will try and find some happy stuff for future posts...

    Understood, but I have noticed that the OP has a tendency to post inflammatory or generally negative topics with more than a casual consistency. I believe Ricardo pointed that out. I made my comment. The OP responded.

    What is your point?

    Really?

    From the Clubhouse forum's header:
    "A place to relax and talk about your day."

    I'm not saying the thread is against the rules. That is not for me to decide. I made a simple request. The OP responded.

    .02
    I read my news elsewhere. How is a discussion about this particular news item going to result in a relaxing or invigorating or interesting discussion.
    My take: it ain't.
    It is just going to bum people out. NOBODY is going to feel better after reading that article. We ALL agree it was a heinous act. What discussion could possibly take place?

    How does any of this have anything to do with the topic? Who pulled your chain? Do you have a problem with me personally?
    If so, let's take it to PM so as not crap the board up.
    If not, then let's get back to our regularly scheduled programming.

    True and fair enough John. I hadn't actually noticed you were the OP. Ricardo pointed that out.
    Wouldn't have kept me from commenting though.

    "Richmond police said they're still looking for more suspects in the Saturday night attack, which may have involved more than two dozen people watching as the girl was raped for two hours."

    Wow, my wife told me about this story a few days ago. I don't know what I would do if it was my 14 yr old daughter, she just went to Homecoming a few weeks ago!! She was wondering why I was there 15 minutes early, lol. She is lucky this didn't happen before the dance, I would have been standing next to her the whole time, lol.

    The reason things like this keep happining in our great country is the ACLU and other do gooders. They try their best to let these **** off with very little punishment. IMHO They cause a lot of our problems. No punishment = do whatever sick thing you want you won't have to pay. I hate it Give them a long sentence or better yet the chair.

    I'm not a violent soul. But...
    People that do this kind of thing are a useless cancer of humanity. They bring nothing to the table. There is no redeeming act that can balance this in their lives. None.

    Kill them. Straight up destroy them. They know no value and can be taught no value of human life.

    This girl was in critical condition when found; she was almost raped to death. Think about that. These f#ckers should die.
