That is totally fucked up.

1. They committed a crime for the express purpose of disseminating the evidence of their guilt.

:wow:

The stupid is strong in these young ladies.

[mikeytherat]

10. Yes. You can feel the stupid flowing through them.

Pick up your camera, record it all, and you will become more stupid than you can possibly imagine!

16. That was my opinion exactly.

One of the things that should be taught in schools is how the things you do on camera/internet/T.V./video can live quite a long time in an information age such as we have. We assume kids don't have the maturity to understand the consequences of their actions with regards to so many things and yet give them technology that some of them are obviously not responsible enough to use.

I won't even start on how badly the parents fucked up for raising such mean girls ... but mean girls have been around forever.

19. Beyond the sheer callousness and seemingly "who gives a sh**" attitudes

expressed in the video, the sheer stupidity of perpetrating a crime for the express purpose of creating (and threatening to disseminate) pristine evidence of the crime, the victim, and the perps, is well, way, way off the Stupid Scale.

17. They're like Jedis of stupid

"The stupid is strong in these" -- Gotta remember that one

2. sorry to sound all Naxiesque

but there's an example of people who should be sterilized.. for the greater good and stuff!

[madinmaryland]

5. "naxiesque"?? Seriesly, what is that??

Naxie's cue?

:rofl:

[stuntcat]

13. seriously misspelled!

:rofl: I meant Naziesque.. but I flopped :(

[derby378]

12. Let's make the one in the pink sweats watch all her co-assailants get sterilized first...

And then...and then...

Sorry. I'm not in a very charitable mood right now.

And I was in such a good mood after the J.M.W. Turner art exhibit! Damn.

[lost-in-nj]

3. And to get viewers

the fucking news gives them what they want....

I know they are under arrest but it's still out there....


how sad is our youth...

no not all of it, we have teens here that have good heads on their shoulders, that I know will lead, but it is really scary when you know that is what is following..... :(

4. YouTube has some brilliant stuff, but also can be a sewer pit

I thought the videos kids shot of themselves destroying perfectly-good objects/musical instruments/etc were bad, and now this.

THE STUPID!!!! IT BURRRNNNSSSSSSS!!!!!

But there are some great classical organ and progressive rock videos on YT, so all is not lost... :)

But I hope they throw the book at these imbeciles. The parents should be implicated as well. These dingdongs are about as stupid as Paris Hilton...maybe they should all share a cheetah. :D

[asthmaticeog]

21. "The parents should be implicated as well"

Right! We should cut off these girls' hands and make their parents wear the severed hands on ropes around their necks, so everyone knows they raised bad children. And if the girls get executed (better than they deserve, right?) we should bill the families for the bullets.

I love living in FUCKING CIVILIZATION. :eyes:

6. Fuck

is this what kids do for fun nowadays? I couldn't even get past the first 20 seconds....

7. Florida is the Virginia of the gulf coast

;)

[graywarrior]

15. Before I read the article, I just knew it had to be Florida.

[hellbound-liberal]

20. WTF does Virginia have to do with this?

Please explain.

[sasquatch]

27. Its a running joke about Midlo's place of residence

:)

[ElboRuum]

8. OK...

Lessee now.

The girls commit a crime.

They film it.

They put it on YouTube.

*POP*

For those wondering, that was my head. Too much stupid got in my ears and eyes and 'sploded it.

[mikeytherat]

14. Yes. My head popped a bit, too.

As mentioned in Response #1, they committed a crime for the express purposes of:

1. Providing 15-20 minutes of crisp audio and video evidence of both the crime itself and all involved and;

2. Threatening to disseminate, to potentially billions of people, this very same evidence.

"The Stupid" just flows through this bunch.

23. Fucking animals

[EstimatedProphet]

24. This reminds me of the movie "Bully"

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0242193/

Based on a true story where some teenagers got together and killed another teen who was bullying them, then hid his body in the everglades. What strikes me is the lack of concern about the consequences - as if what they did was really cool.

Well, so much for college, girls. You'll get the chance to practice those skills some more in prison.
