Re: School says girl lied about assault over immigration poster
What's worse, someone who beats someone up or someone who falsely implicates innocent people of doing so?
Bruises heal, reputations last forever. In the end, words can often do much more harm than fists.

Re: School says girl lied about assault over immigration poster
The supposed ****** might be chalked up to emotion and heat of the moment anger.But the girl being caught on camera inflicting the scratches to herself shows cold calculation to create the story she was attacked.Sure if they snatched her paper that was wrong, but her trying to use the ill feeling towards hispanics and immigrants and fabricate a story like she did is much worse and less understandable.I'm sure even initally the students who were accused said no that is not true what she says but for some reason the media didn't seek them out for their side.More anti hispanic bias maybe,take the little white girls word for it.Thankfully the school looked into more and had that tape.
As to punishment ,suspension or something would be about right I guess.But if she had any integrity she would also apologize to the students for creating this false story that was reported nationally.I'm sure her parents are at fault here somewhat and encourage her attitudes that would lead her to do such a thing.

Now before I post this - I should point out I don't agree with all the statements, but I was surprised to see a politician show some backbone so here you are ladies and gents - Australian PM John Howard on Immigrants, wonder what those school **** would say to him?
"IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians."
"However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the 'politically correct' crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to Australia."
"However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand."
"This idea of Australia being a multi-cultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. And as Australians, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle."
"This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom"
"We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society. Learn the language!"
"Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture."
"We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us."
"If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like "A Fair Go", then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from. By all means, keep your culture, but do not ***** it on others.
"This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'."
"If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't ***** you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted."

Actually he is the former PM as he was ousted in elections last year.He was a typical conservative who fought against unions and workers and was anti-enviorment and was widely seen as being racist.Those **** would say "how are ya loser"? :1orglaugh

lol, very well.
So, what does it say about her initial "argument" (I'm always reluctant to call any kind of bumper-sticker-sized message an "argument") that she fabricated the assault story and was willing to scratch HERSELF to smear her fellow students and push the violent-Hispanic-(*******)-immigrants narrative? Does that say anything at all? Does it say anything about the "type of person" who would make such a sign or cheer on the sentiments of such a sign?
I'd be happy to bet $20 that the FIRST part of this story (before it was discovered she was lying and scratched herself up to tell the tale and falsely accuse her classmates) will be floating around on racist right-wing blogs and chatrooms for years to come, and the eager consumers of such stuff will pass it along at their local taverns, very happily oblivious to the subsequent events that show the whole thing to be largely a sham/scam.
"if" they didn't hurt her? The story makes it seem pretty clear that they (The Hispanics) (don't forget to say it with a deep Voice of Doom!) did NOT assault her, and in fact, the girl's own ****** said, in the article you linked to, Will, "'I see that my ******** was not assaulted and put the marks on her body,' Shera Bowers, the girl's ******, wrote."
So, even the girl's ****** herself doesn't seem to be pushing the assault charges at all.
OK, I might go along with a petty theft charge - assuming the poster wasn't trimmed with gold-leaf or something - but the basis for an assault charge seems awfully weak at this point. And of course, the girl should have been allowed to go home from school after the whole thing (preferably to go see a good psychiatrist), but that's a different issue altogether.
Will, I suspect you are only a bit less eager than the self-********** girl to see these Hispanic students characterized as violent thugs. So, are you actually DISAPPOINTED to find out that they didn't ****** her?
It seems pretty obvious to me that the girl is troubled, and perhaps some brand of sociopathic racism is one aspect of her issues.
And what's up with stainedblueeyes posting Howard's immigration lecture? Um....as the thread has shown, the girl lied to try to make the Hispanic **** look bad (and has it EVER been established that the Hispanic **** are actually ******* immigrants????), that seems particularly transparent to post that now. In other words, you just don't like immigrants, and facts to the contrary be damned, they're just bad, violent people who need to be booted out? [It also strikes me as funny for the then-PM of Australia to talk about immigrants needing to adapt. If immigrants should adapt, then why didn't UK's CRIMINAL REJECT PRISONERS who were shipped there to populate Australia as a penal colony (in many places) adapt to the aborigines' way of doing things, including speaking the languages of the aborigines??? Or did this rule about "adapting" only take effect once the white people moved in?]
I bow down to your assesment lol.:bowdown:Yeah funny how countries full of decendants of immgrants talk isn't it.I can't rep you since it says I have repped you too recently though.:crash:
Thats not the point I was trying to make, Like I said above the post - I don't agree with some of his statements - I was just trying to show how extreme views can be in perspective of this "******". Lesson learnt for me huh
I know this may not be very popular but I feel the same way about the US. I mean seriously, since when do we have to adjust for someone else's culture? If I recall correctly if you come here, then its your responsibility to assimilate, not the other way around. This a big problem here in Miami, there are signs in 2 languages and etc etc etc. And I find this a continual problem, if you come here then its your job to adjust not ours. If I went to any other country in Europe or elsewhere, its my responsibility to assimilate, not for them to change it for me.......just my :2 cents:
"If I recall correctly if you come here, then its your responsibility to assimilate, not the other way around."
