I saw that and was disgusted. I hope the parents of the kid that got beat up presses charges, and the kid should be kicked out. It wasn't even a gig, it was cold blooded abuse

They are cousins. The ones standing around are the smaller kids brothers. The smaller kid is the bully here and He has picked and picked and picked at the bigger kid all year. Making fun if his situation in life and begging him to fight. The bigger kid finally had enough and took him up on his offer.......But go ahead and make statements about things you don't know about. Everyone else is.

If he truly is special needs( I do not know if that is true).... It does not matter if they are cousins. They all look white trash and I hope the proper lawyer gets a hold of this and tries to throw the book at him legally if the kid that was kicked is truly special needs like is being claimed. Anyone that would kick a special needs person in the face even if they are related needs a dose of the judicial system.
He's no where close to being special needs. He's as normal as any other kid other than picking on a much bigger kid.
My question is why is that being pushed by the initial person who posted the video then? I'll look up their name if that helps

Sad, looks bad no matter
Nastynice should get his eyes looked at I don't give a sh-t no one has the right to kick someone in the face when they are already on the ground there was no way the smaller kid was a threat to the big kid. I hope the big boy meets up with someone his own size and try's that crap!!!!!!!!!!
Hope he is proud of his little video show, should be charged with assault and battery.
Agreed, giving someone an old school whoopin is one thing, but kicking a kid in the face while he's already almost unconscious and your friends root you on, is uncalled for.
Sad to see someone even attemptimg to try and rationalize that behavior. I'd be lying if I said I was shocked.
What does this have to do with high school football?
Depending on the consequences a lot for next year
Let's just say the Doc's chances of winning conference next year could increase dramatically.
Sounds to me like a kid with an alligator mouth and hummingbird butt really struck a nerve. Kids don't have the maturity to handle sensitive matters sometimes. I don't know, though, because I don't know either one of them.
Seems to me we should all leave the matter to the people who do know something about it. It's being looked into, so let's leave it at that and get back to football.
The whole thing is a horrible deal and other than the actual video, nothing else that has went viral is the truth. You would not believe the evil that is the human race and what has spurred from a false headline posted from and outsider with a video. Regardless of what led up to it, yes it did obviously go to far. Social media is a wonderful tool but also seems to be a tool straight from the devils tool box.
All I know is that the boy that kicked the other kid is huge. He better hope he doesn't match up with Pea Ridge next year cause there aren't any pleasant things being said about him.
I don't know if Booneville and Pea Ridge are playing week 1 like they have the past couple of years, but they definitely won't be matching up against one another in the playoffs.

Agreed. The trial by social media has turned into a lynch mob. Prayers for peace and calm in Booneville.
Social media, didn't make the big football player kick someone in the face! Then when you have a bunch of retards standing around with a phone broadcasting it as it happen, what the heck would you expect? But you can bet some where down the line he will get a dose of his own medicine, their is always someone tougher and meaner than he is. If I was him I would be looking around ever corner never know when someone will be looking for him.

Barbi Adair. I don't know her personally, but she's always looking for an opportunity to bash Booneville football. She started some false nonsense a couple of years ago too, so this is not her first rodeo. Why? I have no clue. I hope someone takes legal action against her for stating false information.
In no way, shape, or form do I condone what happened by ANYONE involved. But this would have never gained national attention (or local news attention) if it weren't for this Adair clown. The aggressor's legal guardians didn't even stay in their own home last night bc they were afraid from all the nasty threats they received. Needless to say, it has been blown WAY out of proportion, yet no one cares about the facts. And again, for the record, this fight should have NEVER happened. The video is hard to watch.
Pea Ridge does not play Booneville at all next year. I'm pretty sure that booneville dropped to 3A- correct me if I'm wrong- but that would prevent playoff matchups too. As a member of the high school football and basketball teams I can tell you nobody over here is happy about the situation. I'm still a bit confused though as to if the smaller boy had special needs or not. Does anybody know what is true?

He is NOT special needs in any way.
There is a factual statement from the police chief that has been made. I hope all you that are quick to jump the gun on anything are just as quick in helping spread the truth. I know the truth is never as fun, but get after it big boys.

"But but but.....I saw it on Facebook...."
If it wasn't falsified that the boy had special needs this would not have blown up the way it had. This was an agreed fight between the two and apparently they worked out whatever was the cause. But I will say this, kicking the boy in the face while he is on the ground and defenseless is downright cowardly. Let him stand up and have a chance to defend himself. I am not condoning the fighting in anyway though.
From the police statement big kid goes to the little kids home and gets him to come out after an online argument. Probably not the smartest move because now he is the instigator. I would want anyone to think twice before tanking similar action the consequences could have been much worse.

It's not that often that I am glad to be old but for having grown up b4 the age of social media I am truly grateful.
And like a true dinosaur I also manage to function wo Facebook :)
Ultimately if the parents have worked this out and don't want to press charges, I it will be up to the prosecutor to decide what he is going to allow in his jurisdiction. The video is not your typical Facebook news. Video the majority of the time doesn't lie.
Well apparently the smaller boy had made fun of the big kids family issues. I think it's because the bigger boy was adopted by the assistant head coach for booneville. But I don't know how the prosecutor can deal with that considering that should be considered Cyber-Bullying.
Possibly two seperate issues and how they were dealt with previously between the two and anyone else made aware of the situation.

Probably wouldn't have been the issue it became if the big kid hadn't tried to dropkick the little kid's head through the goal post of life. (Bobby Bare reference for the young folks out there.)

I should have been born in the '50's I guess. Two cousins handled their disagreement the way it was done until the feminine movement stop letting boys be boys. I don't agree with the kick. Up to that point, it was two young men proving their mantle. If the little guy had been Jackie Chan and whooped the bigger kid, there wouldn't be any outrage on here. The consensus would've that it was ok because the bigger kid more than likely deserved what he got only because he's bigger.
Families are going to argue so let boys be boys.
Facebook is my 7-Up, never had it never will. Never understood why "men" feel the need to post pics and express their feelings to other people who honestly don't care or judge you for what you do or say.

KASH, if you'd been born in the 50's then probably every Saturday you'd have been paying 50 cents for a haircut and rehashing the town gossip in the local barber shop. Folks socialize, the conduit just changes and there's always somebody who wants to one-up somebody else.

I don't agree with the kick. The fighting was a civil thing but if the kid is defenseless on the ground the big boy should've let him stand up. That kick could've caused some serious injuries to the kids head. I mean the video showed the kid afterwards. He was out cold

Fought much in your life? I've been in a few a long time ago and letting the other guy stand up was never in my thought process.
Yes I've been in plenty fights. But since I know I can win standing up, it doesn't seem right to kick a kid if he's defenseless and on the ground. Now if your on top of him or vice versa and there are punches being thrown then obviously hes not defenseless but it was definitely uncalled for.

Not disputing that part just the letting them stand up part.
