Gang Rape of 15-year-old girl while her schoolmates take pictures
You know this shit is on YouTube. To kids of this age, this is just replicating what they see online, in movies, what they think girls want or deserve or are asking for. I think our culture sucks.
Authorities said people took photos,laughed and some joined in as the girl was repeatedly assaulted. The victim, a student, remained hospitalized Monday with injuries that were not life-threatening.”She was raped, beaten, robbed and dehumanized by several suspects who were obviously OK enough with it to behave that way in each other’s presence,” said Lt. Mark Gagan, a patrol supervisor in the city’s Northern Policing District. “What makes it even more disturbing is the presence of others. People came by, saw what was happening, and failed to report it.”
Rape prevention tip that works: When you see a 15 year-old girl lying comatose on a park bench – don’t rape her! Even if your friends are! Instead, you could perhaps offer her some assistance, or tell your rapist friends that they are not behaving appropriately. Something like that.

Filed under: the feck?, women's issues | Comments (2)Investigators said as many as 15 people, all males, stood around watching the assault, but did not call police or help the victim, a 15-year-old student at Richmond High School in suburban San Francisco.
“As people announced over time that this was going on, more people came to see, and some actually participated,” Gagan said.
Authorities had interviewed the victim, and the search for other attackers and bystanders who watched and did not report the rape was in “full-court press,” according to Gagan.
“We have checked Facebook and YouTube to try to find any revealing evidence,” he said. “We’re looking in particular to see if anyone posted any video of the incident.”
Several other individuals were detained at the scene but not arrested, Simon said.
The attack occurred on school grounds as the annual homecoming dance was under way inside the school Saturday night, authorities said.

“This just gets worse and worse the more you dig into it,” [Police Lt.] Gagan said. “It was like a horror movie after looking at the evidence. I can’t believe not one person felt compelled to help her.”
