When he got hit there would have been blood spattered against the wall.

That was uplifting.

Nice to see Gary Coleman still getting some choice parts.

For the guy in the back seat, why in the hell would you attempt a drive by with only a round or 2 in the gun? He must be very confident of his marksmanship...

Hard to tell but...


Pussies all of them.....this is where it's at!

'Happy Slap' attacks rise


FULL NEWS INDEX

THE sick teenage craze of "happy slapping" is spiralling out of control as rival gangs compete to pull off ever more violent random attacks, a TV probe warns.

The grim trend emerged six months ago with youths filming each other using mobile phones as they carry out unprovoked assaults on passers-by and then posting the footage on the web.

The sick craze is highlighted on ITV's flagship current affairs show Tonight With Trevor McDonald, which has been moved back to 10pm tomorrow night as producers fear the attacks featured are too shocking its usual prime time slot.

One unrepentant youngster interviewed boasts: "If you see someone sitting there who looks dumb you just run up to them slap them and run off. It's funny."

Another "happy slapper" gives a chilling warning that the spate of attacks can only escalate.

He says: "I've seen quite a few violent things going on - and they are going to become the norm and then the next person is going to come out with a more violent thing."

The "happy slapper" mobs display a complete contempt for the victims who suffer the injury of attack and then the added humiliation of "starring" in their films

One thug hooked on the craze tells the show: "It's a little joke. People have a laugh. When people are bored they do it and that's what the police need to understand."

But victim Andrew Greenwood fails to see the funny side of the trend after being left with a fractured eye socket and severe bruising during a brutal attack by a gang of thugs who filmed each other as they set upon him on a late night London bus.

He said: "The actual motive of the attack, I believe, was purely for kicks. For some sort of enjoyment, or dare, or challenge."

Police warn that the psychological damage done by the random assaults is often as harmful as the physical pain.

Metropolitan Police Commander Jim Smith said: "There's nothing remotely funny about it.

"Many of the victims suffer severe injury from the more serious assaults, but even in the minor cases the effect on people's mental state can be quite damaging."

Commuters are being increasingly targeted by the "happy slapper" yobs with British Transport Police recording 200 incidents since last December.

The sick fad is believed to have originated on the UK garage music scene last year, but police and anti-bullying organisations say it has now spread through school playgrounds and gone nationwide.

Incidents have included reports of a youth approaching a woman at a bus stop and punching her in the face - the senseless assault was filmed in a mobile phone clip called "Bitch Slap".

Others have included "Knockout Punch" featuring a group of boys in school uniform leading another youth across a playground before flooring him with a single blow to head.

Newsflash: Bullets don't always pass through bodies.

That's really fucking disturbing if it's real.

Thats a fun website.

If it's real those guys are smart, I hear the best way to get away with murder is to film yourself doing it.

I think it is fake though, the number of bangs from the guns dont match the number of flashes........just my thoughts
