And I thought this only happened in Chicago or Detroit. It's terrible no matter where it happens.

Men muck up student's last day

Attacked with baseball bats

"We did nothing to deserve that"

A STUDENT remains in hospital with severe concussion after an end-of year muck-up party in a Melbourne park was raided by a group of masked men wielding baseball bats.

The group of about 100 students from Mount Waverley Secondary College had gathered in Valley Reserve, near Waverley and Blackburn Roads in Mount Waverley, when a group of people "came out of nowhere" and attacked those celebrating with baseball bats, the Herald Sun reports.

One student is now in hospital with a broken jaw.

Mt Waverley Secondary College student "Tina" said up to 100 year 12 students had gathered at The Valley Reserve for end of year celebrations, when the party was crashed by several masked intruders wielding bats.

“We just grabbed each other and headed up to the main road,” she said.

“It was unprovoked, we did nothing to deserve that.”

“It was really nice up until that minute … and they ruined it for us.”

A Mt Waverley Secondary College class of 2010 Facebook page carried the motto: “Pary hard, rock n roll, we’re the class you can’t control, naughty ladies, pimpin men, we’re the class of 2010.”

Three students were taken to Monash Medical Centre

Clearly Australians haven't moved beyond their convict roots. Pity.

You must have missed the United Nations Human Development Index.

or the World's most livable city, where that school is based in.

I wonder why no US city ever wins let alone ranks in the top 20. For a superpower an all. How about Boston where all of these liberal geniuses are supposed to be located?

I wonder why students got attacked by masked men with baseball bats in a country with no crime. Maybe you can find a chart or graph to explain this.

Someone else tried to pull this ####### today. They too are using incidents of crime (the exception) to justify the United States massive problem with crime (the norm here). Much like the drive-by article you pulled from Perth. Why don't you go have a look at their drive-by rate or homicide rate and compare it to any similar size city or even larger in the US. Then come talk to me.

Less people are killed in my entire state from road fatalities than are murdered in Chicago yearly.

I never claimed that there wasn't cirme in US cities. I merely posted a few stories of crime that happens all over the world, not just in the US. I posted a few from Australia, one from Rio and one from Iran.

That chart is odd.

Those Kiwi hoodlums sure must be tough. They beat the lord and took his rings.

Kiwis are tough and brutal. You definitely don't want to mess with those guys.

Ever seen the film 'Once Were Warriors'? Great film might I add.
