When Things go Too Far

These students in Florida brutally beat another student. It was eight students, most of them girls, most of them cheerleaders. These students videotaped the attack and posted it on You Tube. What is even worse these students did not show remorse. They looked unmerciful when they were being interviewed. All the were concerned with was getting back the cheer leading practice. Why is it that out of eight young people none of them thought it would be a bad idea to beat this young girl?

They probably though that there would be no consequences for their actions. That is what a lot of young people think today. They think that they can get away with anything because rules do not apply to them. They watch shows like Gossip Girls and Greek where the girls are mean, backstabbing, and get away with pretty much anything they want to. These girls probably thought television rules applied to them. Now they are going to be tried as adults and could face life in prison. These students did not think there would be consequences but now there are and they will have to pay deeply.
