Teen "Sport Killings" of Homeless On Rise

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 02-20-2007, 02:03 PM

It's pretty crazy that kids are "evil" enough to kill homeless people and dumb enough to film these kinds of attacks. If you ask me, they deserved to be tried as adults and sentenced to life in prison.

That article really upset me when I read it earlier today. I hate that so many people see the homeless as somehow less than human. This sort of thing should (and probably is) be prosecuted as a hate crime because that's exactly what it is.
These kids are sick mother****ers that think they can get away with this sort of thing because the homeless can be pretty defenseless. My only hope is that they get put in an adult prison so they can learn what it feels like to be pissed on by society like the people that they attacked.

And that's my rant for now.

Then comes what I "hope" can be the obvious retaliation.

Bums randomly beating the piss out of collar-popping douchebag middle-class teens.

TheMalcolmConnection · 02-20-2007, 02:11 PM

What's even sadder is the guy probably didn't fight back for fear of getting arrested.

ArtMonkDrillz · 02-20-2007, 02:15 PM

Even if he did, there were like 3 teenagers with weapons, and they probably snuck up on him while he was lying down.

Oh, and those Bumfight videos are some of the worst shit ever produced. Why would you want to watch something like that? I'll admit that I laugh at crap like the Jackass movies, but that's because these people are choosing to do these stupid stunts, but with these homeless guys they're so desperate that they subject themselves to anything. That article said the producers of those videos only got 180 days in jail and that was only because they missed their community service, which is such BS, IMO.

I wish that happened more. At the same time though, that would probably lead to more backlash against the homeless because people would claim they're dangerous.

I would gladly unite with a bum if he promised to wipe his nasty ass on the face of a pink-shirted prep after I thoroughly beat them down.

Anyone who "pops" his collar deserves to be beaten for that alone...no matter what he's done to bums.

I'd support the bums who beat the collar-poppers.

I doubt that's the case. To someone without a home...a roof over the head and 3 meals a day wouldn't seem very harsh. A lot of homeless people become repeat offenders for that very reason, to get inside and fed.

I don't even know what to say. I can't find the words to describe how pathetic and disgusting that is.

Every time I read something like this I get very angry. It sucks. I can't read the news anymore because of it.

This country has been in a moral tailspin for some time. IMO, it appears to be accelerating. And yes, act like an adult, get treated like one.

I don't think we are necessarily in a moral tailspin. Rather, I think old problems are being addressed (e.g., racism, sexism, etc) and new ones are being created.

dmek25 · 02-20-2007, 03:54 PM

what the hell is a matter with these kids? they did it for fun? i hope big bubba gets a hold of them while they are in prison, and shows them how to play hide the salami

It seems to me that the more we hear and see the Wrong things being done, the more Right and acceptable they become. We as a society look to Hollywood and media to define who we are.

I sort of feel like you might be giving human beings who lived in the past too much credit here because it seems like we've been ****ed up in the head for most of our history. The whole filming homeless people fighting as selling it as entertainment seems like a modern version of the Roman Colosseum, and acts like randomly beating up the homeless were depicted in the book/movie A Clockwork Orange in the 60's and they've probably been happening for longer than that. I don't think this kind of brutality and aggression is unique to this country.

Sorry, the sociology major in me is breaking out.
