It does not show either of the two teenage girls -- both of whom were dressed in tracksuits and trainers -- suffering significant injury.

Not really sure how that is relevant?

AwayWithFaries · 12-10-2012 9:21am

What is wrong with people. One stand out line for me is around 1.12 you clearly hear some say "Get the face." .

I feel sorry for the two girls fighting and reckon that, unfairly, they get most of the shít for this. Peer pressure at it's worst here.

I went to an all girls secondary school and never once took part in, saw or heard of a fight in the five years I was there. In fact, I've never seen two girls/women fighting. It must be the circles I move in.

In fairness, you're not going to see a whole lot if you keeping going around in a circle.

Just the same thing all the time like.

There is way too much media attention being given to it, its kids fighting while its not nice and definitely bad behaviour this much talk about it is ridiculous.
If it were not on U Tube the school would have dealt with it privately same as every other incident that happens in schools everyday.

The kids will be loving the attention.

A lot of posts and radio comments are identifying THE wrong school

There are two schools close by:

Gardaí in Co Cork are investigating an internet video which shows two teenage girls fighting while surrounded by a group of up to 50 other teenagers.
[URL="javascript:void(0)"][/URL][URL="javascript:void(0)"][/URL]Gardaí are investigating the video

The footage, which was shot on a mobile phone, was uploaded to the internet on Wednesday and has been viewed several thousand times since then.
Three teenage girls have been suspended while their school carries out an investigation into the fight, which happened outside school hours.
The footage, which lasts for just under three minutes, shows two first year girls as young as 12 and 13 hitting and punching each other on the ground while being cheered on by bystanders.
The fight is understood to have been pre-arranged and over a teenage boy.
Christ King, a prominent Cork city school, has since issued a statement in which it condemns what happened.
The school says that while it cannot control the actions of its students outside of school hours, they still represent the school, and if it is found that they have brought the school into disrepute, disciplinary procedures will be invoked.
Furthermore, it describes the video as appalling and unacceptable and says the school authorities are not just disappointed by the behaviour of those involved in the fighting but also by those who urged them on or who made no effort to intervene.

For your information gardai are now investigating.

Proper order too. For too long now stretched garda resources have been tackling gangland violence and the war on drugs while ignoring the real social problems like this.

If a complaint is made what are they to do they can't ignore it, parents have probably complained. It is assault no matter how trivial we think it is.

kunst nugget · 12-10-2012 10:34am

Imagine the size of the head on the pimply little fúcker they're fighting over.

mickydoomsux · 12-10-2012 10:55am

This kind of thing used to happen nearly every week in my secondary school with both guys and girls and no one batted an eye. It was just normal teenager stuff. This was in the late 90's.

Everything is bullying now and kids are so coddled. The fact that the guards are involved is laughable, a really great use of limited resources. **** dealing with real crime, we need an investigation into a couple of young wans pulling each others hair a bit.

edellc · 12-10-2012 11:05am

i have no idea what school you all went to but I never ever experienced girls scrapping like this EVER, the worst it got was one girl hitting another a punch on the back in the last few weeks of secondary school in 6th year, other than that never seen happen and even that was disgusting and made me look at the person doing the punching in a different manner. I went to a school in Dublin that had near 1000 pupils in it so it was a big school not fee paying or private but not knackerville either not that, that should make a difference, being dragged up and being brought up shouldnt be about where you are from.

Incidents like this should not happen its yob culture and in my eyes not acceptable both girls should rightly be suspended and so should the little trouble maker who pushed the first girl over to the other one.

Shame on all involved and it makes me sick to think of the spotty little **** theses girls where fighting over, the sooner we teach out girls that men or should I say boys are not worth dragging yourself down to such low depths for the better, dignity and class go a long way but sadly seem to be lacking in society these days.

kunst nugget · 12-10-2012 11:20am

I reckon the people that think these two girls scrapping are somehow indicative of every single teenager out there and the crumbling of society need to cop on a bit.

plahc · 12-10-2012 11:35am

I attended this secondary school and also i never witnessed any fight i did here of 1 or 2 over my years there. That was late 90's early 00's. The difference now is social media having an impact and allowing it to go public. I think this is an occurance of naiivity, immaturity and stupidity. Peer pressure being a determining factor. I just hope that this having happened will just make teenagers more aware in future.

Can't understand why people are having a go at the guy they were fighting over. As far as I can see he didn't have any part in it and maybe he's not even pimply at all. No need to tar him with the same brush as the people in the video.

gimmick · 12-10-2012 11:48am

School yard fight terror.

Seriously, get a grip. This has happened everywhere for years and years but there was no one around to put it on youtube.

Moral compass that is AH really has gone potty :rolleyes:

ZX7R · 12-10-2012 11:51am

So who do you all think won the fight, for me the girl in the dark tracksuit she won on points she got more slaps in

lukesmom · 12-10-2012 11:54am

It's not the young lads fault? It's not his fault that there are two girls stupid enough to pull the heads off each other for him. Hope he chooses neither of them after this and finds himself a respectable girl.

Light Switch · 12-10-2012 11:56am

We used to have a regular fight in 1st year when I was at school a few years ago.

(A very we regarded school BTW)

Proper organised too, Used move the tables and chairs and clear a ring, Then get a referee so no-one got seriously injured or fought unfairly (Kick someone into the balls etc...)

But the way it's been blown out of proportion will have MORE of an effect on the girls than the actual event itself.

Assault is assault. There are rules in society for a reason.

Ellis Dee · 12-10-2012 11:59am

Two little bitches act like --- two little bitches. Meh!:rolleyes:

As regrettable as an incident like this, and a few others, may be, it hardly portends the downfall of society.:)

Interesting to see that the Indo reporter mentions some of the comments made on Boards.ie to the effect that these incidents are commonplace, but ignores those that say it is just an isolated incoident::D

The clip has sparked an internet debate -- with Boards.ie receiving a number of posts that such 'phone fights' are now commonplace near Irish secondary schools.

Defiler Of The Coffin · 12-10-2012 12:26pm

Folks,

The moral fabric of Irish society has broken down. Historians will look back on this fight as the moment we began our slide into savagery. Kids had never before fought with this level of brutality...

:rolleyes:

I can't believe the Garda wasted time looking into this.

Tefral · 12-10-2012 12:38pm

I think I was in a fight when I was in Ard Scoil Ris once a month and they were a damn sight worse than whats in that video. We used to have fights that was basically bare knuckle boxing with your school uniform on.

The reason for these fights? When I look back we used to kill eachother over stuff you would laugh off now, but if you didnt stand up for yourself you would be bullied. In fact if your known to fight your corner, the bullies leave you alone.

Those fights thought me alot about myself and really made me an assertive person. To this day in work in your life, if you dont stand up for yourself you get walked on, the trick you learn as you get older is you do with with words and actions rather than the two knuckles on your right hand.

Not having a go however 99% of teens are spotty little ****s

Yes he had no part in it I never said he did

And I never tarred him with same brush he had no part in it

So don't quote me if your not going to use it in the context I used it and make out I am saying something that I didn't

Make your point without misquoting people

KayR · 12-10-2012 1:13pm

It is undignified to say the least and it is sad that 12 year-old girls have to fight over a boy...have they anything better to think about?? The boy in question is probably running scared at the thought of being the butt of their tempers.
The people who encouraged the fight are the bullies and that needs to be addressed for sure. It is not the first fight and won't be the last but this must not be ignored. It doesn't matter if the kids are from 'good families' ... sometimes used as an excuse to brush the whole episode under the carpet ... they have to be made accountable for bad behaviour.

Abi · 12-10-2012 1:16pm

[QUOTE=Teyla Emmagan;81207201]I have never seen two girls beating into each other like that in my life. I never even saw the lads in school lift a hand to each other. And all the little horrors standing around laughing and filming it? .[/QUOTE]

Nor have I. It was just vicious.

There are so many things about that video that disturb me I hardly know where to start

That is exactly what I thought.

1) The first girl was pushed in to fight with the other girl.

2) The viciousness of the fight itself.

3) They were watched by a gang of them, while being egged on.

4) Several camera phones filmed it.

5) Not one person tried to break it up or get help.

It's not particularly nice to be accused of having a 'sheltered life' purely because you never got involved in brawls or witnessed one. What the fúck did that fight achieve anyway? The boy probably doesn't give a shít about either of them at the back of it all, and what the silly girls did has gone viral and have to live with the shame of it.

Are you crazy? They just achieved legendary status at School. TV3 will probably pick up the rights for the re-match.

Seriously though, they are kids, they will give as much of a f**k about this as any teenager would. Slap on the writst, it won't happen again mammy I swear, back to school and life goes on.

Not so much sheltered as I don't put myself in the way of being around 'skangers'. :rolleyes:

It's that kind of mob mentality only interested in capturing the action for Youtube that is going to ruin this country eventually. How many of them standing around and yet not one of them had the gumption to separate the two girls and tell them to stop acting like fools? I remember rolling my eyes when the nuns would go on about having the courage of your convictions and other things like that, but now I appreciate the standards of behaviour that they drilled into us. Manners, courtesy, self-respect and respect for others. Sadly lacking amongst all the peer-terrified teenagers on that video. :rolleyes:

Reading that back I now see that I have now become an auld wan.

If they were my fücking kids they'd be sorry they were ever born when I was done with them. Maybe that's the problem, the whole lax attitude to punishing kids. Theyve no respect for authority. I'd wipe the fücking smiles off their faces in a flash.
