I saw this on the news! Hearing it, i thought those kids were stupid.
First of all, they video taped it AND they posted it on YouTube and Myspace. Didn't they have the common sense to think an adult or a police officer was going to see this. Apparently not.
Second of all, they beat up this girl just because she was talking shit about those kids who beat her up on the Internet. If i ever saw what she about those kids, i'd just LOL it and go on Newgrounds. I wouldn't know those people that girl was talking about and frankly, i wouldn't care about them because i probably wouldn't ever see them.
And finally, did they seriously think that they would get away with this??? Even though they planned the whole attack, they weren't planned for when the cops would come and arrest them. Those 8 kids should be tried as adults for 2 reasons:
1. They beat up someone.
2. They were stupid enough to put it on MySpace.
