I do think it plays a role. It would also be nice for parents to parent, be role models, discipline, talk, etc.
At last glance .. it was against the law for parents to do their job as parents .. The state thinks it can do a better job of parenting.
If parents, and everyday people in general, would wrest control of their schools from the department of education .. and if parents were free to dicipline their children, then we would see much less of these kinds of situations happening.

And please don't try the because spanking is illegal, since of course, it is legal in all 50 states.
I am disappointed that there is a racial spin being put to this. I saw this far more as a gender issue then a racial one. My heart bled for this young girl when I heard of this story. I know first hand how sensitive a young girl can be especially when it comes to her sexuality. I hope they get go to jail till they die. I would even condone castration (kidding....maybe.)

Me too, I think this isn't an issue of race, but one of cultural values, sexism, mob mentality, and a lack of empathy with the urban youth of today.
This is what happens when promiscuity is promoted and there are hundreds of thousands of pornographic images of mostly white girls doing unspeakable acts cluttering the internet. Girls are going to bear the brunt of the violence that sexual license incites.
Young men are going to act on their inflamed passions in this pornography soaked culture. This is the sexual revolution in action. It all started with innocent playboy and has progressed to the intense violence of teenage gang rapes.
No, this is what happens when there is an acceptance of violence against women in our culture. From music lyrics and music videos, to video games, to television and movies, violence against women has become so commonplace that teenagers are becoming numb to it all.
LOS ANGELES, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Incidents of violence against women on mainstream U.S. television has increased by 120 percent in the past five years, with the depiction of teen girls as victims rising by some 400 percent, the Parents Television Council said in a report on Wednesday.

WHAT???? Oh yeah I forgot sort of like the old comercials Dont let a good boy go bad, lock your doors.
I understand that your post was about sarcasim. However in this day and age it is never the criminals fault anymore. It is society's fault.
I am waiting for the excuse. Its blow back from years of oppression etc.
Following up to my earlier post here - Now we are seeing coverage.
That's good. Bravo to CNN and the others.
I would like to clarify what I said.
I am not saying that one group or another is worse than others. Let's face it, these types of creeps come in all colors.
What I am concerned about is that when it comes to a white victim, there is rarely the issue of bias brought up. And this is wrong. Bias should always be investigated when you have a group of one race targeting someone from another race - That is only fair.
Otherwise there will be a great backlash - And that will lead to divisions in our society.
It's just like I mentioned about this Attorney General, a few months ago making all the noise about the lack of honesty about race....Nice sound-bite, until it sunk in just what may come out in an "honest discussion". And now it's a sound-bite no more.
And by that, I mean that perhaps an honest look at things would show that all groups are closer in "bad doings" than some people like to think.

Reason: To clarify a point
If there is absolutely no sex involved in rape then why does the penis penetrate the vagina during the act? If it is only an act of violence why not just use a bat or knife? Why don't they use penis' to rob banks? Why deny that rape is the marriage of sex and violence by saying that it is only violence? The truth is is that the sex urge drives the whole act.
This is like saying that there is no death in hunting only eating. Indeed there is death in hunting and there certainly is sex in rape. It is the strong sexual passion that drives the violence in rape, the same way the hunger urge drives the violence in hunting. Overheated sex urges along with anger is the emotional cocktail that drives rape.
