Albert's aunt, Rose Braxton, told CNN affiliate WGN-TV that the family was hurt again when a memorial in Albert's honor was burned down. Wow http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/09/28/chicago.teen.beating/index.html
Question: Do you think the Media is going overboard showing this over and over again? Like I said. You basically watching someone die on TV. Rocket River
Haven't seen the video, because I just dont want to see someone die, but yes, I think so. Don't they usually remove these kind of videos?
The only reason to show it is to help identify everyone who is part of the killing. Although I don't think this should be shown in local markets outside of Chicago. Everyone involved should be brought to justice. Even the bystanders that stood there instead of calling 911.
don't want to turn this into a D&D thread (it probably already is), but any of you guys opposing the death penalty should watch this video, and ask if those worthless pigs deserve anything less than death. And it doesn't even do them justice considering how painful this dude's death was..
One of Suspect's Family Member Talks Desiyan Bacon, Bailey's aunt, said her nephew didn't have anything to do with the beating and was a friend of the victim. MSNBC Yeah freakin right. Friend of the victim.....
...so, which slums that don't have such problems? ya see my point here? It doesn't matter if the slum is black, white, brown, etc. and it doesn't matter if the slum is ethnically segregated. ALL slums have these problems.
That was disturbing ... Until this country gets serious about punishing people to the level that their actions warrant, this problem is going to continue.
parenting.......i won't make comments on the degradation of urban american black society here but everyone can agree that these issues do not occur if parents are 100% actively invovled in their child's life. if you disagree then you need to rethink things.
Everyone should be allowed and even encouraged to watch this video, even kids. I'm sick of this nation of zombified, brainwashed, ****ups, it's time for drastic measures, people should learn the harsh realities of life, even though these things happen infrequently. I sure as hell wouldn't let my kids go to school without some hidden weapon (pepper spray, knife) these days.
