Two 9-Year-Old Girls Terrorize Australian Shopping Center

By Madeline Aggeler @ TheCut.com, March 28, 2019 WITH VIDEO

Two tiny, 9-year-old agents of chaos terrorized a Helensvale, Australia, shopping center on Monday afternoon, jumping on top a car, shouting obscenities, and threatening security guards. Videos taken by passersby captured their expletive-laden rampage.

“This is our car, so get fucked!” one girl can be seen shouting at security while the two danced on a white Toyota sedan in the Westfield parking lot.

As security guards tried to diffuse the situation, the girls kicked at and spat on them. When one guard yanked away the girls’ scooter, one shouted, “If you take it, I’ll bloody kill you,” and the second leaped off the car, shouting “Give me my fucking scooter.” Moments later, video shows the second girl speeding away on the recovered vehicle, and doing a sweet ollie.

According to 9News Gold Coast, the girls reportedly started acting out in the parking lot after getting into a fight about cigarettes, and abusing an elderly woman inside the shopping center. [....]

A real good reminder that most violent extremists are quite a different thing than plain vanilla hatred of the other and prejudice. It's just that they seek out amenable groups and hatreds, and just happen to find one more to their liking for stoking the personal anger they already have. It's rarely the other way around:

If anger at Muslims and immigration wasn't a major populist topic right now, these guys would pick something else. Should the world be so lucky as to have this kind of hate fall back, they'd just find something else! So solving the problem of these violent guys with personal grievance is not like tied to getting rid of Trump stoking this or that. Not going to work, they will just find another issue they find simpatico.

Extremists who take intractable unreasonable positions blackmail thethe world. The whole Tea Party was based on that, as was Erdogan's rise over 10 years, Brexit, etc.

In reply to Related, but also lots of

Just saw Steve Schmidt on MSNBC say he sees a real clear message from the elections of an extreme hardening of the forlorn rural mouse vs urban/surburban mouse, as in the above, as in angry tribalist populism. Remains to be seen whether that means that the suburban soccer moms dragged (fairly happily) married hubby over to the other side of the divide, leaving the lusers behind, also as in the above.

There was a comment to the above article that I found quite striking, a one liner, I can't find it now, too many to scroll through, it was something like Incels blackmail the world!
