Shocking Baby Launch Video Lands Teen Behind Bars


www.foxnews.com
LEESBURG, Ga. — A Georgia teen is facing child cruelty charges after an online video showed a young man launching a baby several feet across a room using an inflatable pillow.

The video posted on YouTube shows the boy putting a baby on one side of a large yellow pillow and then jumping on the pillow, sending the child flying several feet across the floor, where the baby lands and cries.

Even if the video worked why would you want to see such B.S. I am glad you don't get to see it you twisted fool.

Me too. I was so disgusted by the news already. Repeating that part in the video made it worse for me. I feel really sorry for that baby.

I hope that boy gets what he deserve.

By seeing the video you can form a better response to it, it's not sick and twisted. The description from Fox for instance, is misleading. They use powerful words such as 'launched' and 'flying' to make it seem worse than it is. If you watch the video, you'll see why it wasn't a nice thing to do, the baby was not launched and certainly didn't fly.

Seeing it, it was a stupid thing for the boy to do, but babies can take alot more than that and walk (well, crawl) away from it. I'm in no way condoning it but hasn't anyone realised that babies kind of, well, bounce?

The guy got what he deserved though, babies aren't toys and shouldn't be treated as such.

Wanted to see it t make sure it wasn't being hyped up and it turned out to be something innocent.
CLEARLY in this case it was a stupid thing to do to that poor baby.
Letting it land on the bare carpet like that.
They have absolutely no respect for human life. They see that baby as a doll not a human being. I bet they wouldn't even do that to a cat or a dog.

I sure hope that teen is not the parent. I wished they would interview the parents and their reaction.

This reminds me, when I used to go to school, one of the kids mom was in the newspaper for microwaving a kitten to death!?

Anyway I just don't understand some people.

With all due respect, I hardly think that's a fair comparison. Did this boy act with caution and maturity? Of course not. However, I think it's a far stretch to claim the boy wished harm upon the infant.

that may be true, but do we know how many times they did this before recording it? and what else they have done!?

Well, what was the boy thinking when he did this? Was he thinking, "Hmm, will the baby be hurt if I try this?"

we have kids being thrown accross the room, beaten, starved for days, burned and even thrown down garbage shoots and other hidious crimes.

I completely agree with you Phoenix, I just take issue with someone wishing death upon the moron that did this. I truly hope this boy is punished for his misdeeds, but I hardly think wishing death upon him is fair.

Best regards,

Jono

Babies can take a lot, but if by chance they end up with spinal damage because they land wrong that is a big problem. Sheesh there are kids that were shaken and survived and can't walk, talk, feed themselves etc...
