2 white boys beat and sodomize Hispanic boy, use racial epithets. The boy is in critical condition and is not likely to live.

I dont care what the race is of the boy they did this to, its just plain sick.

I do care about the race of the boy and am thankful for hate crime legislation.

that shouldn't matter

it is sick and disgusting no matter who it was done by, or done to.

they are animals

Motivation of a crime plays a part in the severity of the punishment.

Take first vs. second degree murder, for example.

... where THEY can be sodomized and beaten.

They might like it.

True...

Well, as long as they're behind bars and having to have the humiliation of $hitting in front of a bunch of other people, having to eat ####### for food and having no freedom!

Ugh. I hope those boys get thrown in jail until their trial, tried as adults, and thrown in prison where THEY can be sodomized and beaten.

I think they should be sentenced to death...

Don't worry, just because they're "pretty" enough, they will get sodomized and beaten!!

it's sad to hear about stories like that, very sad... I hope that some day though i'll hav enough control over my son for him to not go to parties like that at 16... I think it's still too young! The boys shouldn't have been there in the first place.. The 12yr old girl even more so! (was she really at the party, did i understand this well)??

I really hope the boy lives thru it..It's sick!!

Not long ago, a homeless man was beaten to death in florida...A HOMELESS MAN, and for no reason!

I heard about that homeless man and I think it was videotaped.

I just saw something on GMA the other day about these little punks going around attacking people for no apprent reason. Sick twisted little bastards! Where are the parents of these monsters?

Stories like these are why I don't watch the local news anymore.

so sad

[nina1 0]

yes, the florida homeless man's tragedy was videotaped.

I have a weak heart so when i hear stories like that or stories about kidnappings in Iraq (more precisely about the gruesome killings), i almost want to throw up..And i get teary and stuff.. It makes me sick thinking about how someone can put absolutely no value to a human being!

sick little fu*kers!

I read about this on cnn.com........what is wrong with people? I think it is horrifying.

Such a scary world we live in

i agree, for those of us that have children, boys or girls no matter, it is our constant fear, at least i speak for myself, my son is 9 and he is too trusty for my opinion, kids dont understand bad things happen to good people and they have to be careful, no matter what nationality they are

That poor boy.

I pray for his recovery. This is just so sad and wrong.

How horrible I hope that they are tried as adults...

I wonder what they would do to me.......white boy with a latina

I'm high 5in ya. Good on you

Sick yes - attempted murder - and if he dies - murder.

Maybe race 'motivated' the ferocity of their attack - they look like cowards from their pix - and the fact he was younger and therfore less likely to fight back - also there were 2 of them to his one. Cowards.

I'm sure one of the reasons they kept on until he was almost dead was because they found they enjoyed it.

I see no life in their eyes.

Death penalty if possible I say.

I guess next we'll see the 'excuses' being trotted out - they were abused, they were poor, or uneducated - what a load of @@@@s.

Fry em

There was another Hispanic / Anglo murder case in Houston / Harris County that made national headlines. The rape and murders of Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Pena by a gang of mostly Hispanic punks and a white punk in 1993. Thirteen years after the crime these gangster punks are still exhausting their appeals.

Another sad, but true example of a disfunctional criminal mentality. I see no possible rehabilitation for any of these thugs. Kill them or lock them in a cage till they die on their own.
