The family of Kaylee Gain, a Missouri girl who was critically injured during a fight 10 days ago near a St. Louis high school, said Monday she has suffered a fractured skull and hasn’t regained consciousness.

“The full scope and extent of Kaylee’s injuries and prognosis for recovery cannot be determined until, with God’s grace, she regains consciousness,” attorney Bryan Kaemmerer, a spokesperson for Gain’s family, said in a statement.

Video shows the 16-year-old was punched during an altercation near Hazelwood East High School on March 8.

Gain can be seen in the video getting thrown to the ground and punched in the head by another teen girl. The video also shows her getting her head slammed ont

    Jesse what the fuck are you talking about?

    If someone calls you a slur on the schoolyard, you go to the teacher with witnesses or walk away.

    Being called a mean word is not a call for self defense.

    Obviously teenagers fight, but this most certainly wasn’t “self defense”

        First sentence. You said violence is right for self defense from bigots.

        In general, sure, violence is right for self defense from physical risk. but hate speech is not that.

        Edit someone breaking into my home and stabbing someone is not someone saying hateful things to me.

        Your comment is junk.

          So everything I’ve said is true, and you admit you were full of it in your initial comment.

          I never said anything about the girl in the story. You’re making shit up to disagree with because what you said was wrong.

          Thanks.

            Nearly nothing you said is true because it was predicated on the above situation and my comment you replied to.

            Being called a racial slur is not a reason to us violence.

            Further, my comment never implied anything inconsistent.

            "Source? Or mods should remove misinformation.

            If she did say it, violence is never right, nor is hate speech"

            In this comment I called for information confirming a racial slur was used. Then, I state that even if it was, the victim of that hate speech was not in the right to use physical violence as a response. Lastly, I make clear I’m not giving a pass on hate speech, as it is always wrong.

            Edit my statement “violence is never right” is specific to the situation of response to hate speech, essentially non self defense

              The word never is not for singular occurrences lmao.

              But whatever 5 page bullshit narrative you need to weave to feel better, have at it.

                I’m speaking about a specific situation and clarify it in my statement. So basic critical thinking makes clear the scope of my discussion. Sorry this confused you.

                Anyway, your hostility is super uncivil.

                  Sorry you expect people to read your mind instead of your words.

                  Jesse what the fuck are you talking about?

                  Don’t be a hostile prick if you don’t want a hostile chat. Of course, you cry victim after being disrespectful to everything said to you.
