People being ghetto. I can understand both sides though. There was obviously many different ways this situation could've been handled. Unfortunately not everyone is gonna go the higher route or contact the police if someone steals their belongings. People these days are crazy and will attack and kill people over the most insignificant things so people should think twice before they act.
The sad thing is the attacker won't have to deal with much, especially if he's involved in athletics. The coaches will do anything to lessen the punishment for their star players. The most he'll get is a semester suspension.
No, all of them are expelled. Look up Dean College.

Right. I don't fight though. I never have and everytime I see this type of coonery it makes me just shake my head, but hey in some countries you get your hand chopped off for stealing.

Wait, including the one that got his ass whooped?
I am surprised they got expelled, but then again the video is all over the internet and it tarnishes the legacy of the university. Is Dean College predominantly white?
You don't have to be from the hood to know that basic principle that you stealing will get your ass beat. Like I said:
These are college-level students. If this had occurred in a middle school, MAYBE even a high school, then I would understand and comprehend the whole situation a bit better. However, the fact that this took place on a college campus and that these college students didn't have enough sense to resolve an issue as trivial as misplaced (supposedly stolen) shoes is sad to me. You honestly believe that it's acceptable for this boy (because that's what he was) to attack another student because said boy assumed this other student had stolen his shoes?
I would have tried to scare him off by saying that I was calling the police.
"N!gga, yew wanna cawl tha pohlice? Huh, n!gga yew wanna cawl tha pohlice? N!gga yew think yew hawrd oh some shiiit? N!gga I **** yo ass up too bitch!" *pow* *pow* *pow*

He may not personally believe that. However, in the hood, violence is quickly the first answer to any sort of conflict -- no questions asked.
This video isn't really surprising. I've heard of worse happening in situations like this, even in my own city, with people who turned out to be innocent of have no implication.
The image of African-Americans in the general media has already been ingrained and reinforced over decades. The majority of the time when a non-celebrity African-American makes the news or headlines, it's usually something negative or a crime.
If you were to ask ANY other race in American to "act like a black person" what do you honestly think you'd get? My guess is it would be something close to this for a male and a ghetto Shaniqua/Sheneneh impersonation for a female.
That's how we're viewed in general. We're dumb. We're ignorant. We know nothing. We steal. We kill.
Is it completely a lie? Not really.
African-Americans comprise the majority of the prison populations nation wide.
African-Americans are always at the VERY bottom or next to last in any standardized testing category.
The African-American high school dropout rate is alarming.
The African-American teen pregnancy rate is alarming.
The list could go on all night.
African-Americans are so crippled, diseased, and plagued as victims of a culture that they themselves maintain.
People discuss all the time how X has four or more different kids by different women. He's with none of the women, takes care of none of the children, sees none of the children.
It's shrugged off. No one really cares. It's now assumed standard that a young black mother is a single parent with the father not around.
Honestly, the myriad of problems that exist within the Black community will not be solved in any of our lifetimes.
It's easy to control someone that's ignorant and dumb. They know nothing.
Why would anyone legitimately want to help that plight? Seriously? Is anyone really concerned with this filth on a national level? Nope.
TBH I feel the other races would be happy if African-Americans just stayed in the projects/ghetto and never left.
It's not an issue so much as the problems that exist, but how they spill over and affect other people(specifically whites).

There are no excuses. There is no point in even trying to engage them on this.
Did you see the video sweetie, or did you just assume that because it included black male youth that it was placed in the ghetto? Clearly, there were at a university from the background, and im pretty sure that teacher and those two white girls who walked past were not just hanging around in the ghetto.
Actually, no. I don't need to see the video (I grew up in the BX, I have seen enough coons fighting over dumb ****), but I can read the thread to get the context of it and I knew that they were at a college.
I'm talking about where they may have grown up, which almost all of you assumed was in the ghetto. And if that's where they came from, you can not expect these young men to willingly go to the police. In those parts, snitching is bad enough to get your ass whooped. I'm not saying that it is a good thing, but that's the answer to questions like "Oh, why didn't they just go to the police?"
But you know some people were raised fighting for everything they have and earned. It's sad. I was raised to turn the other cheek and handle it in a more civilized manner, but some people grow up in areas where reporting stolen merchandise is ignored so they handle it themselves.

You can't be surprised even with them being college students because ANYBODY can pretty much get into college these days with how the economy is looking, even the dumb girls can get in depending on the time of the year they apply to a university. Some schools will be a little less strict, especially if they're looking to expand the diversity of the student body. And some schools will accept anybody just like this university accepted these ghetto things.

Oh girl please, you better get into 2009-2011 court cases about bullying and physical abuse.
After that one boy got attacked at that party and ended up dying, the courts are not having this tomfoolery. Sports or not, if or rather when this video hits the local news, that community is not going to let that boy walk free. People are fed up with having to worry about their children being murdered or beaten when they leave the house.
As if it wasn't bad enough in the neighborhood, the brining the mess to colleges now.
