I'm guessing this is male youth on male youth violence?
Are there any incidences of the girls jumping or getting jumped?

Not only would it be taken more seriously but I guarantee it would make the national news. Everyone of the major networks would be running a special about how racist catholic school boys are beating on poor innocent blacks whose only crime is traveling miles outside of their own neighborhoods in order to get a decent education. Katie Couric would report live from out front of Father Judge H.S. and Larry King would have one of the black kids from Lincoln on his show with the kid's grandmom whose been raising him his whole life.

Most of the kids I see outside of Lincoln (or, even more - NE) don't seem like the type to give a rats@ss about their school... It's all about lookin' fine, f-ing around and talking on the phone about american idol or some other BS...

True....how many people know about the Halloween incident in California?

Quote:
The violence occurred on a predominantly white block known for elaborate Halloween decorations and fancy candy. According to police, a group of black youths - mostly teenagers but some as young as 12 - allegedly hurled racial insults at the women, threw objects at them and then knocked them to the ground with kicks, punches and skateboard blows.


The attack was broken up by a black man who stopped his car and pulled the assailants away. But the women - two of them 19 years old, the other 21 - suffered injuries, including broken bones.


Officials said the three white women were about to attend the Halloween block party. Shortly before they were attacked, they had been subjected to catcalls from a group of mostly young black males.
Change those bold words around and you would have seen it on the front page...along with specials out the wazoo about "racial problems"....

Didn't hear about that incident.....surprise surprise....and I am SURE there are many others that we don't hear about. Reverse discrimination if you ask me....how many years did we hear about Rodney King?!?! Didn't he wind up in jail?? He probably blamed his crime on the suffering from the incident.

Ironically here is an update of the Halloween attack:

Quote:
LONG BEACH, Calif. - Nine black youths were convicted Friday in juvenile court of beating three white women in a racially charged attack on Halloween night.

The youths, ranging from 12 to 18 years old, could receive sentences from probation to confinement in juvenile prison until age 25. All were charged with felony assault. The judge found some of them guilty of hate crimes.


The attack occurred in an upscale area of the city known for its elaborate Halloween decorations.
