Teenager Bounces Baby Off Pillow, Is Arrested (VIDEO)

A Georgia 16-year old, the star of a hard-to-watch YouTube video in which he catapults an 8-month-old baby off of a pillow, has been arrested for cruelty to children. The boy was apprehended after one of his school teachers saw the video and informed police. The child, who was in the care of the boy's family at the time, was taken to the doctor by its parents and there is no word yet if there were serious injuries.

Yuk.

And yes, I'll lay part of the blame at this Administration's feet - this boy spent half his life learning that even the President of the United States will throw away human lives if he gets something out of it for himself or his friends.

"son, waterboarding is not torture, and it's okay to bomb innocent men, women and children if they are brown, worship differently than you, and have something really, really valuable that you want . . . but be nice to white babies!"

The MSNBC story was done as responsibly as possible, I figure.

But who are the morons behind that second story!? Was it really necessary to show it 18 times on an endless loop and in slow motion? Geez. It's like they found it funny instead of deeply disturbing.

I agree. That was gratuitous to say the least. I cannot believe how cruel people can be.

I just hope that poor baby is ok his cries were very difficult to hear.

The second story is from WALB, the local TV station in Albany GA where the incident took place.

Yeah, nice job WALB. Not. Does that station not have any editorial common sense? The last few seconds were the worst, with the constant repetition of the actual bounce. I wonder if producers of the piece were just as vicious when they were teens.
