Definitely written by their lawyer, so not really their words.

I think the parents put up the daughter to posting on social media and everything done and I don't think it was sincere. I think it was to stop the boys parents from going after them, which I hope they still do.

The police in Northern Virginia are investigating a report by a black 12-year-old girl that three white boys in her grade held her down, covered her mouth and cut off lengths of her dreadlocks on a playground at their private Christian school.

The girl, Amari Allen, who is in sixth grade, and her family spoke to media organizations this week about what she said happened to her on Monday on the playground of the school, Immanuel Christian School in Springfield.

How many white 12 year olds do you know who use the word nappy? I think this is the first time I am using it and I am 40. The family was really quick to alert the news. Sounds reminiscent to the N word incident on a school bus at Frost middle school 1-2 years ago.

I know, I’m so sorry to say that the first thing that occurred to me in reading about this was that white people don’t know and use the word “nappy.” I would think especially white teenage boys would have no idea what this means. It did make me fear that whatever happened was not exactly as the girl recounted.

Tell me more white person. Explain how this black girl made this up. Go on. Share your wisdom about these matters.

Please be fair as a reader. I never said she made the incident up. In fact I was a prior poster who is appalled that a 12-year-old is being put through a media grinder and had her face all over the news and had to repeatedly recount a traumatic incident. I don’t doubt that something happened here but I know from many years of working with children (and frankly adults) that what people describe as having happened is not always exactly what happened. The word “nappy” suggested to me that she was telling what they said more from her perspective.

It would also be a kindness to her if you were not part of politicizing a child with your righteousness.

You sure as hell implied she made up the part that they used the term “nappy.” Your vast survey of white teenage boys leads you to believe that the term is something they wouldn’t use. So for argument’s sake, let’s say that’s true. They didn’t use the word. Then what exactly is your point? Does it make it less upsetting that she was grabbed and held her while cutting her hair. Please explain.

Beck today’s headlines. I think she was quite moderate in her skepticism

Is there any adult supervision at the NYT? They get so much stuff wrong, and it’s always going in one direction.

It took me 25 years to tell anyone about the violent sexual assault I experienced at age 13.

How long did it take your caretaker to figure out what an asshole you are?

Seems like a fair thing to ponder. And look here — the whole thing turned out to be false. Hmmmm

That will never happen. Even if they were convicted, they will be sentenced to read books on the holocaust or some type of or visit the museum or study some discriminatory invent that wasn’t even against black kids similar to this girl.

So now what should the punishment be? What books should she be sentenced to read?

I'm surprised that the school allowed that hair style. My son has longer hair and all made it clear it had to be cut and conform.

The Diary of Anne Frank and I Am Malala, so she (and her family) can drop the bs and appreciate their privilege as Americans.

I bet you have been fast asleep and #MeToo blew past your bed silently, lest your sleep would get disturbed and you would wake up and know what is happening in the world around you.

How about some people just make shit up – and now is a particularly good time to do so for certain segments of society with the liberal media actively facilitating. We recently saw it on the Mall in DC, in Chicago, and here it is again in VA.

In the original headline of the NYTimes, the race of the kids was in the headline. Guess what was omitted from the story today?

Don’t even know where to begin with this comment.

This country has a history of perceiving young black girls as less innocent than their white counterparts. This girl is attacked and assaulted, yet she MUST be making it up? Sickening.

And she was....!!!!
