Beating Death of 16 year old In Chicago

This is a very sad turn of events that is very appalling to see.  You may have seen this video already as it has gotten plenty of hits online, but I decided to post this video in an effort to show the senseless violence that goes on in inner cities. My biggest issue with this video is, where are the police? and / or school officials, or any other adult for that matter?  How can this many people fight without any authorities showing up?

Just awful. The video link (1st one) has been pulled and doesn’t play now.

Definitely awful.  Down right crazy that something like this could happen.  It’s a wonder that more people weren’t seriously hurt or killed.

Thanks for the heads up on the video.
