My girlfriend showed this to me. I can't find it on youtube. The video is of a girl (oddly dressed like an ajosshi) beating up and dominating another girl.

My girlfriend tells me that the girl got suspended for two days. Now that the video has come out, the police realize they have to do something. The school, as per usual, tried to cover it up.

Looks like a Korean viral video

It says they're middle school students but the student doing the kicking looks a bit older. That's just disgusting. Suspended for two days? This video makes a good case for why bullies might benefit from some of their own medicine.

All these things I see on video that I can't imagine happening at my school just make me so thankful.

Sad. Truly. A 2 day suspension is a joke. Violence just isn't taken seriously enough in SK. Probably the power-that-be thought to himself, "What's the big deal? That's nothing compared to what I do to my wife."

Schools in SK cover stuff up stuff much worse than this. Remember the rampant student on student sex assaults in that elementary school awhile back?


The kid who stabbed the teacher in NZ a few days ago probably thought it would be covered up too.

Yeah, she should go to jail! Rolling Eyes

Get over it, they're just kids doing kids things. Big deal, a little fighty.

After he did some jobs for CIA, ex-marine John Shale is visiting his high school love Jane. She's now a teacher in Columbus High School in Miami. Soon after his arriving Jane has her knee cap broken while jogging. After that, John decides to go undercover as her substitute in high school. Very soon he finds out that gang named Kings of Destruction is terrorizing the school. Shale is going to give everything to stop them, even his own life.


Great movie. If you haven't seen it, go and watch it.

I think it would be great if that happened here. Would you like to deliver vigilante justice to bullies and thugs who prey and students?

Eh? Excuse me? Shocked

To answer the post about why she didn't run away, my girlfriend said that they had blocked-off the alley to stop her getting away. Whether that is fact or speculation, I am not sure.

They should give her a full year of in-school suspension...oh wait, that is already the case in Korea for every student...

True, kids will fight...every lunch hour there was always a throw down of some sort in my schools...I think it is the hiding of it on the bullies' part - I am lumping in the watchers and camera phone student - that makes me angry.

What happened to 1 on 1 with a huge group of students circled around chanting fight fight fight until a teacher managed to wriggle through?
Have they no honor?!

I would have thought the minimum would be to take the girl doing the kicking out of the school. That'd probably be what'd happen in the UK anyway.

This wasn't a fight......

If you watch the full video, you can see there are a total of 4 girls against her. One hitting her, and 2 blocking one entrance, with 1 more blocking the other entrance.

Bullying is heartbreaking to watch.

In my high school a bully would walk past and give you a dead arm or something. Then walk on. But that is like an ongoing bullying which could last for hours! Must really fu_k with your mind......

Actually, it's not only SK schools that cover things up. In the U.S., especially, in the inner city and major urban areas things are covered up big time. I know, and I've seen it. One of my friends, a teacher, caught one of his students with alcohol in school. What was done? The alcohol was poured down the drain, the security lady didn't call in the cops. I mean that's an M.I.P. (minor in possession). Many kids in the U.S. also break the law because there is reluctance to crack down on the problems in the schools. One of my buddies, a Chicago cop, he pulled a kid over for something and his mom called to complain. Imagine that.
Seriously, that's the mentality you are dealing with. Maybe, it's better in New Zealand, poster.


Granted, there were some arrests at my school. Once, the media came when we had several arrests and pandemonium when the electricity went out. Did it hit the news, though the media was there? No. When my car was broken into did anything get reported? No, they didn't want it to happen. I suppose the difference is this happens all over Korea, whereas in the backward areas of the U.S. it happens.

I don't know if that school in question was a poor area of Korea, so I can't say for sure. It was in a Southern state. I am sure, though, it happens in New York City and Los Angeles. Many of the posters, here, who happen to be white or be from more secure neighborhoods don't see such things. I did. I was surprised that the stuff received no coverage. There is a huge crisis in the schools, and that's one reason why people want to restrict immigration in the U.S. because the schools are overwhelmed.

Now, Vancouver and Toronto are going down the drain.

Like a lot of the cases you read about, this was was about the girl allegedly spreading rumors about the other. *cough* Check out the comparative size of the victim and you might be skeptical about that excuse.

Absolutely disgusting video. Korea Beat picked it up now, and it says that the girls have all made up.
Quote:
Subsequently, although the two girls had since made up, the name and home address of the girl being kicked spread through the internet, making her the latest victim of the dog poop girl phenomenon. The girls have asked police to find out who could have uploaded the video, though you�d have to think they already know.

Makes me want to kick somebody repeatedly in the head. Thankfully I have somebody in mind . . .
