@TStandeckm6931 This isn’t “teens being teens.” A young woman was dragged by her hair and beaten unconscious for entertainment while people filmed.

When people film instead of help, and police arrive only after the damage is done, the system has already failed her.

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a mob of Black "teens" dragged a White female college student off her own porch BY HER HAIR, dragged her to a stop sign, and then beat her UNCONSCIOUS... TWICE...

...while a crowd stood around FILMING it!!!

The girls called 911 **FIVE TIMES** that night, but police didn't show up until AFTER the beating was over.

This happened near York College in Pennsylvania.

A group of students, young White women, were on the porch of their off-campus house when a stranger walked up and picked a fight and a mob of Black "teens" rushed them.

One of the girls was ripped off the porch by her hair, dragged to a stop sign, then roughly a dozen people jumped her at once, kicking and punching her from every angle while a crowd of up to 30 encircled her.

She blacked out TWICE... once from a kick to the ribs and again from a blow to the back of the head.

And the whole time, she says, people were recording it on their phones and laughing... filming her get beaten unconscious for entertainment.

Her friends were dragged down the steps by their hair too. One was already in a knee brace, recovering from an injury.

The girls say they called 911 FIVE separate times.

The first calls went out BEFORE the violence even started, when a crowd was gathering and cars were street racing so recklessly that one of them smashed into a parked car next to the firehouse.

Five calls. They were told each time that officers were coming. Officers didn't arrive until it was over.

Students say this isn't new and that large crowds gather there constantly, and that another student was attacked just two weeks earlier by what they believe is the same group of non-students.

"The cops haven't done anything to protect us, and campus safety hasn't done anything. It feels like they're scared to get involved with 'these' people, but then it puts us at risk when they're doing nothing."

WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!

@902Dv8 We don’t have to accept this. Protect our girls. Enforce the law. No more excuses.

Baghdad, 2003.

Shortly after departure en route bahrain, a surface-to-air missile struck a DHL Airbus A300's left wing, leading to a loss of pressure in all three hydraulic systems and leaving the crew, consisting of two belgians and one scotsman, without normal flight controls.

The aircraft pitched rapidly up and down in a rollercoaster phugoid, oscillating between a nose-up and a nose-down position. in about 10 minutes of experimentation, the crew learned to manage turns, climbs, and descents through differential engine thrust alone. against almost impossible odds, they managed to land the crippled widebody safely.

Pilot and co-pilot of private jet that crashed at Misrata International Airport on Monday have been detained for flying while intoxicated.

The prosecution did not identify the pilots, however said that the captain is a German national and the copilot is Turkish.

Prosecutors said investigators had found evidence that the pilots flew the aircraft while drunk and ordered their detention pending the investigation.

A normal airport landing gives you a runway thousands of metres long. Luke Czepiela had just 20.76 metres.

He landed his aircraft on the 27-metre-wide helipad atop Dubai’s iconic Burj Al Arab, a 56-storey hotel with virtually no room for error. Before the attempt, Czepiela completed more than 650 practice landings to perfect the approach, touchdown and braking.

When he finally went for it, he touched down and brought the aircraft to a stop in just 20.76 metres.That’s the difference between landing on a runway and landing on a tiny platform 212 metres above the ground. ✈️🔥

Fascinating piece of Hong Kong aviation history. To those who flew it, hats off to you…

9/11 image. Zoom in on the ground in this photo. Those pink pieces scattered around are human remains, likely from passengers on the planes that hit the tower.

This is the photo that haunts me most…. the last taken before the second tower collapsed.

Dad was FDNY Rescue 3. Rescue companies are the FDNY’s elite, each firefighter was had three additional specialties. Two shared by everyone in the truck - HAZMAT & Collapse for R3 - and one from civilian life (Dad’s was Major Trauma).

After getting promoted he helped create a dedicated HAZMAT unit as covering LT.

Then a roof collapse crushed Dad’s spine and he was moved to a desk job at Emergency Services. He hated riding a desk but poured his passion into getting a dedicated purpose built Collapse Unit truck for R3: a rolling lumberyard of shoring, jacks, saws and rescue gear.

Often he worked from home and I would return from high school with sketches and spreadsheets of a collapse truck spread out across the dining room table. We would talk about it until mom told us to clear the table for dinner.

In 1995 his plans materialized and Rescue 3 got the truck but his cancer became terminal and I was away at college so we missed the commissioning.

This was before the internet so I only saw a photo of the truck twice. His FDNY brother Eddie Sere, showed me one at his funeral and I saw it again when I turned on my TV the morning of 9/11

This truck.

On 9/11, it was FDNY’s only dedicated Collapse Unit but was buried in the rubble of the north tower before it could be used.

Every man of Rescue 3 manning the truck that day perished in the collapse.

Please say a prayer for Dad’s fallen brothers of Rescue 3:
