These damn kids are getting out of control. Every year that goes by, the kids get worse.

And then the lil dudes thought this was funny. Where are the parents teaching kids right from wrong, putting GOD in their lives or some higher power…..

all i want to know where’s the parents of that friend he went to visit on a school day

Children really are getting out of hand!!! They have no respect for their parents, authority/the law, or each other. But why was this child skipping school???

Down here, the news is saying that the kid were all friends. They use to go to the little boy’s house and everything. They tried to steal the little boy’s (victim) dad’s bike and the victim told on them, so they were mad about it. He was scared to go back to school after that. So, they caught up to him.

These kids should just be put in prison and not juvenile.

these mini murderers need relentless beatings!! who can’t hear must feel!! lol. No, violence isn’t the way.. but the sooner kids, and parents for that matter understand the meaning of repercussions, we all lost… women be spreading their legs not thinking that a baby they don’t know how to parent might swiftly follow!!

OMG! Try them as adults, cut their balls off and burn them alive!

Did you guys hear about the parents that got locked up because they made their daughter wash her mouth out with soap for cursing at them? The cops said that it is child abuse.

The prisons are “for profit”, so they don’t want you taking care of the kids yourself…they want the kids to get out of hand and end up in prison. There is a lot of money if you have a contract with a prison.

Such a wicked act, it makes you wonder what were those kids thinking. Why, even if they were seeking some type of revenge, would they do something so horrendous? Unbelieveable.

@tb

Yeah I heard about that yesterday. They put soap in her mouth for ten minutes-thats a bit excessive. I would’ve just slapped her in the mouth and kept it moving.

smh every single day theres always some craziness going on stopp the violence ppl!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is just pure wickedness! I don’t even pray that God has mercy on these kids souls, and they all need to be tried as adults!

This is what happens when these 15, 16, and 17 year old hoochies have these babies and have no clue how to raise them (because they haven’t been raised themselves)! And when parents spend more time in the streets trying to be thugs and in the club then they do spending time with their kids. It’s getting crazier and crazier.

@ tb

I always heard that prison contracts are huge financial boosts for any town, guess thats why they just want to punish and not rehabilitate prisoners

This is such wicked behavior. What would put this in a child’s head? It seems like this wasn’t a spur of the moment act, either. It sounds like it was premeditated. How sick and wrong.

I wish more parents would stick soap in their children’s mouths and discipline them for misbehavior. Kids today don’t have boundaries and that’s why tragedies like this happen.

^^ ridiculous

Did you see the report on NBC this morning? I don’t think these kids parents are hoochies. The victim’s mother actually looks like she is in her 40′s. So I think this is not babies raising babies

@ drenk

They make is so once you go to jail, it’s hard for you to get a job, so you have to start robbing or doing something, so that you get somewhere to live, etc., then you end up right back in jail.

I think by the time the kids are in 4th grade (I believe) they are already doing surveys on them to see how many prisons they will have to build in certain amount of years.

They are waiting with open arms.

I have no words.

@ Nique

Ppl were doing that for years, yet kids never came out the mouth like they do now. Parents aren’t allowed to do anything to their kids. They threaten you with jail if you discipline your child.

Back in the day, your parents put soap in your mouth, it was not going to be for 2 or 3 minutes, it would be longer. Next time the child feels like cursing, they will remember what happened.

Back in the day, kids were not allowed to fart in front of their parents, curse in front of their parents, listen to grown ppl talking, interupt grown ppl when they are talking, the list goes on and on…these kids now a days don’t give a flying frig.

Co Sign and on top of that they have parent who will sit there and let them have like 3 more kids, when these young kids have babies stop helping them and let them feel the full magnitudes of there choices… Baby it is time for you to learn the hard way you no longer a child according to this move right here…

These “children” should be locked up for the rest of their lives. There is no possible way to reform these monsters and they do not deserve humane treatment as they are simply not human. These are dangerous beings…they ARE NOT “children” or “human” in the sense of the words that you and I are familiar with. They are dangers to the rest of society and if the politicians in that state have half a brain they will fight to put those things away for their rest of their natural lives.

The only reason I didn’t say “dealth penatly” is ’cause they may be too young. They deserve it, though.

So sad. First of all, all these little fools needed to be in school. If they put as much energy into doing good as they do with doing bad, there is no limit to where they could go. Now it is just looking like they are setting themselves up to have a long rap sheet. Such a shame. These kids need positive role models, they need to listen and stop thinking they know it all. They need something.

The only reason I didn’t say “dealth penatly” is ’cause they may be too young. They deserve it, though.

*******************************************************

Maybe in this state but there are a whole bunch of kids who were given life and the death penalty for crimes of this caliber. I was reading articles from that site the other day.

this is so sad.

@ I’m Just Me: Keeping It Real Since 1983

I agree!! These kids could’ve done amazing things if they put their energy towards something more positive. I think this situation is a sign of times. Our children are killing each other!! Jesus take the wheel!

@ L….Bobby

Yes Jesus Please take the wheel.

Hey pigeon!!

Too many young men and women growing up on the streets without the proper discipline and guidance from their families to become productive human beings in our society. It may be because the Family member never had any guidance themselves OR are on DRUGS. My heart is so saddened for our children, our race,lack of knowledge and lack of responsibility for these young people’s actions. They have so much anger – some justified and LOT NOT justified. If everyone takes responsibility for their own children – we can make this a better place for all of us. And people don’t want others disciplining their children when they refuse to do it. Those are the parents of the boys who set another child on fire.

@ JB

What up girl!!! What about that ass-whoopin we gave Georgia on the hill last sat?

What is the world coming to? These kids just don’t care about anything or anyone.

They need to start arresting the parents too and forcing them to either get involved and live up to their responsibilities or stop having kids. These kids didn’t ask to be here and they obviously aren’t being given the right education, diciplin, direction, and home training. More people need to be held accountable until folks start taking their parental duties seriously!

Spare the rod…spoil the child. This kids need a swift kick in the azzz…I dealt with mine. They got they azzezz beat. I don’t play the radio. Come in on time…do your chores everyday…where are you going? who are you going with? how are the grades? talk to the teachers/principal..stay active and on that azz…when they get too grown to listen PUT THEY AZZ OUTDOORS and dont be playing…let them feel some cold under that azz…They will shape up. Fact.

@ Say What

It is a fine line….you need to whip em but not so much that they end up hating themselves and want to change who they are.

…and Jesus flickered the Light…lol…I’m sorry but that’s not funny at all but it’s funny journalism.

this is what happens when after-school programs, television, radio, and friends are all raising your kids except YOU!

@Dajournalist

you noticed that too…

I saw this story this morning on the Today Show. This burning took place because this young man told that these delinquents took his father’s bicycle. Because he told about his father’s bicycle they deemed this young man a snitch. Now if they thought they would get in trouble over a bicycle what trouble do they believe is in store. And we glorify not telling the truth with t-shirts saying, “stop snitching”. How ignorant?

In River Oaks I don’t even get the BET or MTV station…a light-skin friend told me himself that they direct culture towards the neighborhood’s they want to have that particular culture…so their babies hear Mozart or Beethoven while our babies hear Jay-Z or Lil Wayne.

What is the root word of culture? cult…maybe?

@ copycat

might sound harsh, but now days that is exactly what’s needed.

Now I see why the police be jackin these lil bastards up like that!!!

@copycat

I agree.

They need to give some chores back out to these kids…some of these kids don’t even know the meaning of HOUSE CHORES…

Spawns of the devil.

These females better realize they need a man present to raise these boys…stop spoiling kids trying to be their best friend and make sure they have a male role model available to show them the meaning of life, show them the value of work and responsibility…

thats sooo fuked up….kids dont give a fuk anymore…they must be gay..or at least know some1 that is. that had to be why they did this…

I don’t ene know what to say about this stuff anymore. It’s just senseless.

He was going to give the money for the game but didnt have it all. They chose to do this These kids are evil, they would have done this regardless they need to be taken out of society, as far as parents goes, true some parents condone what their brats do, there are more parents surprised and embarrassed at the acts of their children. No parentcan say what their children will or will not do when away from their parents.

Life in prison I don’t care how old they are

When God was taken out of school it became the devil’s playgound.

I cannot imagine the pain.
That kid got this for doing the right thing? Not allowing some hoodrat thugs to steal a bike?

There’s no integrity anymore. And GTFOH to all y’all who say NOT to blame the parents!!! Where are the fathers/mothers teaching the kids right from wrong, and how to resolve matters the right way?

When i don’t get my way as a kid, heck, i didn’t like it either but at my worst i took a temper tantrum, kids today get a gun, or a lighter. this ish is out of control.

These kids should be FORCED INTO THERAPY, DEFINITELY SERVE JAIL TIME, AND MADE TO WORK IN A TRAUMA/BURN CENTER FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES.

@ Alrighty Then…

Google REX 84

this has nothing to with religion but with what the parents are teaching them,it also has to deal with the kids surroundings, we as society cant blame the parents for everything that a child does wrong we have to blame the child for what they do. the only thing that we can blame the parents for is what they decide to teach their kids. But i agree that these kids should be punished for putting another person through that amount of pain and sufffering. My prayers are with the victim and his family.

That headline photograph is incredibly disrespectful. A child is burned horribly and scarred for life and you put a picture of a dude on fire? Has to be an unhappy bunch of horrible people to let that slide by unnoticed…

Wow. Kids can be really cruel, but what these kids did was simply evil. How could you not know that setting someone on fire is wrong?

I cant even read this because it makes me cry. I have a son not much older than these young crazy azz out of control children. The young man that was on fire suffered. This is the one fate that I have prayed not to die that tremendous fate. I cannot imagine someone calling me to tell me my baby died such a cruel and inhuman death.

These children are out of control. When you’re dealing with a group of people without fear….anythng goes.

They need to charge the parents as well as those kids. I think if the justice system starts giving these parents a little time; they will do a better job at making sure their kids stay out of trouble!

Did you see the report on NBC this morning? I don’t think these kids parents are hoochies. The victim’s mother actually looks like she is in her 40’s. So I think this is not babies raising babies
——————————————

If she looked like she was in her 40′s, then she’s probably his great-grandmother……………

Look at the signs, read your Bible, get yourself prepared because it will get worse.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAAP!!!!!! I agree with you I grew up in a strict /religious school and many may disagree but I believe GOD IS LACKING IN ALOT OF THESE KIDS.
This is so sad……our people has lost it. You try so hard to defend your people and then they do the unthinkable act. What’s going on in our society breaks my heart.
Someone made a comment about “blaming the parents” I believe you are missing the point. When you have a child it’s your responsibility to guide them in the right direction. As a parent you MUST know your child, you Must know who or what they are involved with, who are their friends. Parents have left their kids for society to raise them. I am a true believer in the saying “the devil find time for idol hands” these kids should be involved in some kind of activity, sports etc. If you are a working parent you still need to make it your duty to know what your kid is up to, be more involved in their life.
I know there are kids who are just bad and want to be bad but it is impossible that so many kids have been lost to the system.

@ 6

The victim is white. 2 of the “friends” were black, an the others were white or hispanic.

Here we go again. Clearly, the ‘parents’ are NOT in control of their household or kids. EVERY DAY there seems to be more of the same…I’m starting to get desensitized by these everyday occurences. It makes me sick….

Where are our values? Why are we teaching the kids to be so hateful? I just can’t believe this. SMMH.
Tired of violence, PERIOD. If we don’t get it together BLACK RACE= FAIL. We need to stop having children, just for the heck of it. We nned to start being FULL-TIME PARENTS that love their kids and take responsibility for their upbringing…

I’m off the soapbox, now… This is riduculous…

ridiculous*- excuse typo

tragic…
i bet those kids arent blk bc if they were, they’re faces would b plastered all over the f-ing news!

jeremy and denver r white boy names

In jail they will just learn how to be a real criminal.

WTF??!!!! Times have really changed since I was a kid. Kids are totally out of control now-a-days. It’s hard to say what should happen to them, yeah they should be punished…..but starchild is right jail will just make them worse than what they are now.

This is SAVAGE and INEXCUSABLE. Today’s youth are displaying more “animalistic” character/behaviors than “humane”. Something is wrong, and this has got to be STOPPED. Children shouldn’t be so aggressive and capable of inflicting such torment on other persons without conscience. This is madness.

Those aren’t children. WTF?

kids will be kids

Sorry to get a little off subject, but how come when white youth do outlandish things like this people aren’t blamming it on rock and roll like everyone does black youth with rap?

SMDH, that’s some crazy ish. Why are these kids 15 years old in middle school. I graduated from middle school when I was 13. Too many kids are flunking out of school and failing grades.

I said this before and kids or not, they need to get washed! One kid’s life will forever be compromised. So these kids need to face punishment that would compromise them the same. I’m not saying set them on fire, but in no way should they be allowed to move on in life without facing the seriousness of an action like this. And I’m not saying lock em up and throw away the key. But yes, go to jail… and then hit those pockets with a restitution that will last for at least twenty years. And if they try and get slick and not pay, back to jail. They should feel the affects of their actions for years to come, just like the victim will. And they better be glad that I’m not the victim’s mom cause I would KILL them!

I wish there was a time machine that would take bad kids back to the 70′s,when you got your azz beat from your neighbor,then your mom,then your dad.

I say put them in jail until the boy’s burn heals, if it never heals fully don’t let them out.

we as parents need to be more involved with our kids, talk to them find out whats going on inside there heads…..stop letting your kids run around freely and out of control.

they should get the maximum punishment allowed for doing this.

What happened in their upbringing to make them so detached as to even fathom doing this to another human being?

I’m a military (GWOT vet) person with an amazing capacity for violence, and the few times I have even had a flittering thought about something as evil as setting a normal, civilian, non-combat zone person on fire.. on fire?!?! I scared my own self man, sh~t. I got all 3rd person with my-damn-self Like: “Man stop! Go STFD! and Cool the F… out!” You know what I’m saying? Je-sus kids, wtf?! I feel terrible saying this but if at 15 or 17 *THAT* is what you jump to for revenge on a FRIEND? You need to be tried as an adult and given the needle. Come back in the next life and start over… and as for the conspiracy to show black children in a poor light and the prison industry racket.. that’s all known. But this is extreme, even for the hood.

That’s pretty rough. Poor kid. Bullies have gotten worse since i was a kid, the days of being stuffed in a locker, thrown in the trash can, lunch money stolen, joked on in the cafeteria are over.Now they are set you on fire. Yep thier asses need to go to jail to be around some REAL bullies. SMDH

OH WOW..THATS SOO SAD AND SCARy..THEE WORLD iiS REALLy COMiiN TO AN END WiiTH ALL THEE BAD CRiiME THATS BEEN GOiiN ON LATELy..iITS A SHAME TO SEE BLACK YOUNG FOLKS GO DOWN BT iiF THEy DNT DO RiiT ETHAN iiT AiiNT NO OTHER CHOiiCE..POOR KiiD, THAT SHOULD BE A LESSON LEARN FOR HiiM TO NOT DiiTCH SKOO BT MAy GOD BLESS HiiS HEART, SOUL && FAMiiLy!!

…..gee what a surprise the perps are black and hispanic….oh, but don’t you dare say that over 70% of violent crimes in this country are committed by these cultural groups, that there is actually a problem…they should be tried on hate crime as well…

they going to jail a long time for that. 4sure

better pray I never have it My way…I say set their little azzs on fire!!!
