I was just going to say. This is suprising in the sense of what the older woman actually did. What's unsuprising is that the attacker would be cast into an uncontrollable rage by behavior that she perceives as "insulting to women." It's really a pervasive attitude in most societies, only a bit more extreme.

I should know.

More statutory examples of this can be seen in American law, but I don't want to bore everyone.

Also, I wonder if the attacker is guilty of some sort ot statutory sexual assault... there are some wierd insinuations in the news article I posted.

I GET IT!!!!!!

It's okay if you didn't know, there is no need to be embarrassed. I know because I'm part indian, I don't really expect other people to know. I was taught how to scalp a person when I was five years old.

Yeah that was lame. I didn't even know I was part indian until I was... last year.

Wow... yet another person on this site who claims to be indian. Was your great grandmother a Cherokee princess?

i'm sensing some bitterness from you, grl. i doubt most people would lie about something that obscure. it's not like how i'm half-faerie, and everyone around me aaaalways wants to get in on the faerie genetics action.

Being Native is "obscure"?

Every other white person I know (myself included) will drop mention of Native blood (usually Cherokee) at a moment's notice. I guess it's supposed to make us cool or special or something.

No, it's a half-assed attempt by white people to try and distance themselves from feeling guilty about how badly the tribes of North America were treated. "My great-grandmother was a Cherokee princess, therefore my great-grandfather simply couldn't have raped, pillaged, and murdered his way across this nation." No, Buffy, you're wrong. There IS no such thing as an "Indian Princess", because chiefs weren't considered royalty. Get it straight. You're white.

Also, Fun Fact: the actual medical term for being "scalped" is called being degloved. Now use it in a sentence, children.

Jesus.

That's gross beyond belief! Disfiguring another being is unconscionable.

The punishment will never fit the crime. This is when "an eye for an eye" almost makes sense.

is it bad that i was thinking it'd look cool if i scalped lots of kids with all sorts of cool hair colors and made a nice skirt out of them?

I'm confused. This lady apparently is part of this punk clique as well, so why did she scalp the girl? And didn't they say that the 'scalper' only has bangs and the rest of her head is shaved?

I am confused as to the motives.

what's even lamer than this article is the handful of people replying and touting their native american heritage as if it mattered.
they should be scalped too.

Well they're proud of their heritage? Someone earlier commented about "fucking indians" I believe. Me, I've 0 native blood in me and I'm just fine and dandy. I'm a good old Kraut
