Ever Changing Times In April of 2008 six teenage girls attacked one of their peers while a teenage boy stood on hand to tape the “event.” The word event comes to mind because these teens planned and extricated the whole “event” to put on the website‚ YouTube‚ perhaps in some hopesthat the world would see it and notice them.

I was a little worried after booking it as some reviews on websites were quite negative but I am pleased to say that these worries did not come true.
