This is heartbreaking! Susan Boyle, AKA the woman who stole Simon Cowell’s heart on ‘Britain’s Got Talent,’ was attacked by a group of teenagers who threw burning pieces of paper at her, according to a horrific new report.
So, if the police won't do anything with this ongoing gang issue, why don't a large group of neighbors get together, and beat the snot out of these kids?
The British public just takes it, and won't fight back even when their lives are at stake.
Poor thing. Didn't she stop performing because of her problems with crowds? Something like that because she has some form of autism? Anyway she does have some sort of problem and I hope this doesn't make it worse.
People can't really do anything but the police should. One problem in the UK has been cutbacks on the number of police due to lack of funds.
Are these gang of boys from that peaceful religion? I noticed they left out the description of the "gang"...
There are lots of gangs and it doesn't sound like the "peaceful religion" type. Probably just "normal" gangs. Not enough police to keep it under control.
What to say anymore - my cats are more human than a large percentage of people. Fortunately, Susan has dealt with a lot in her life and strikes me as someone who can handle an incident like this. (Yes, I know she has some issues.) I must watch her performance on Britain's Got Talent at least once a month because it has to be one of the most astonishing things I've ever seen. I love the confident little smile she gives the judges just before she starts singing: "Uh-huh, listen to this, you smirking twits."
Verbal abuse was also involved, as the young boys reportedly called her an “ugly old b*tch” to her face.
I'd want verbal abuse to be involved as well!
I mean, if bunch of 15-17 yo girls ran up to be and just threw burning pieces of paper at me and then ran the hell away without saying a single word, that would be even more disturbing. If they yelled something like "You old, fat dork" while doing it, then I'd know what their issue was.
Btw, how do you throw a burning piece of paper? If it read, burning paper balls then I'd understand but a burning a piece of paper?
Yes, the above questions are rhetorical and facetious.....sort of.
