I could see editing it because they didn't want people watch their child be beaten. It's a matter of privacy. I have no idea why the girl was beaten up but whatever it was even she deserves the right to a bit of privacy if that's what she and her parents want.
Sorry! I was actually taking to mka. I should have used quote. I'll edit that post.

She was beaten up because she posted some things about the other girls on MySpace.

I love you all but all I know is if that happened to me, I wouldn't want the video up there.

I wouldn't want it up there either but they have every right to keep it up despite my requests to remove it.

Nobody has commented on the fact that for ONCE, BILL O'REILLY DIDN'T YELL AT THE PERSON HE WAS TALKING TO! More shocking than a teen getting beat up.

But moving onto what you homies are talkin' about, oh, the ol' freedom of information debate. I don't think we need to see the video, personally, but there are so many sides to this argument... and here's a couple.

The news thrives on stuff like this. More you show = better ratings.

People need privacy. We don't need to see this because just reading or hearing about the crime is enough.

We need to be shown just how horrible people can be.

Etc, you jerks. Now come beat me up!

I don't want or need to see the video. I dislike watching violence of any kind. Hopefully those who do watch it will not become desensitized to violence and will remember how awful people can be.

JUST teens? Do you know how quickly children grow up these days? Nigga, them full grown adults to me. They doin' adult ass beatings, they getting adult ass rapings. That's my opinion on the age issue.


The censorship/freedom of information thing. Ehh.. I agree, If it was me, I'd prefer it not be on YouTube, but everyone wishes for a perfect world.




People are morbid. Good luck cleaning up their mess.

this kinda of thing happens all the time.... they should use this as an example and make it a few years long and some therapy... since cnn or cbs or whatever decided it was large enought to be announce its large enough to make an example of.

Yep. This type of stuff happens all the time. You will always find that these type of people only ever fight in gangs. Never on their own. Always ten against one, it seems rather nice to me. Jokes.
