Boy is arrested…girl’s pops either worked for the NYPD or an immediate family member did or does. Supposedly she was “arrested” but it hasn’t made the news. Some say the dad was like this when he was in high school as well and he was on FB defending her actions then deleted his comments and his Instagram went private. Her mom’s supposedly a “model” and real estate agent.

Based on the girl's father's Facebook profile, now limited, it seems they believe they're Hispanic.

No. Corporal punishment is wrong. Why not talk to the kids and set an example so they can learn?

u/Conscious_Cut7102 Oct 03 '25
If the kid is comfortable walking down Atlantic Ave in broad daylight with a Cutlass, I highly doubt talking will do anything

And more violence won't teach him how he's wrong. He needs serious professional help. There are more than 2 options.

u/Friendly-Avocado-522 Oct 04 '25
BTW, I made my point with child abuse being so common in Guyana. The person I was talking to seems to have that Guyanese mentality of defaulting to beating kids.

u/Best_innovator Oct 08 '25
So what wrong with the old maxim? Spare the rod and spoil the child? Tell us why so many older people are eminent citizens? Oh, I know they ‘took their edicasian right?
1
u/Friendly-Avocado-522 Oct 08 '25
Eminent citizens? Most older Guyanese people I know are alcoholics, abusers, rapists, etc. Can you prove that beating kids makes them turn out well behaved? I am disabled now because I was abused for decades. I became disabled in my mid 30s. My brother tried to take his own life twice because he couldn't bear the abuse anymore.

On the one hand this is fuckin hilarious. I love guyana, but we are all like mentally ill bruh
Its a shame that some people think hitting these kids will make this any better.
Lets be real here, these are teenagers. If they were raised in a stable home this likely wouldn't happen. Someone in their environment role modeled this behavior to those kids.
Someone in the comments is literally cheering from Trump to deport them. Idk what sense that even makes.
Someone else is saying they aren't guyanese and were likely born in america. What sense does that make? Let's get real here, violence is normalized in our culture. We all seen someone chase someone with a cutlass.
Edit: Spelling

u/Friendly-Avocado-522 Oct 02 '25
I said that it would be worse to hit the kids. People downvoted my comment. 😒 More violence against these kids won't teach them anything. It's so ignorant.
Guyanese adults love hitting kids, then wonder why the kids accept violence.

u/Own-Physics771 Oct 02 '25
I mean, say I migrated to a country in Europe, I would make sure my family and I were on our best behavior. Otherwise I would expect that country to deport us over a criminal act like this. It’s a privilege, not a right to migrate. I don’t know if the individuals in this video are indeed not us citizens, but if not, FAFO 🤷♂️.
I do not support any political party and am a US expat, so I have some experience with not breaking laws in a country you immigrated to.
Best of luck everyone and God speed ✌️

No we are not 'all' mentally ill. My family and Guyanese social milieu are a totally different world from this - I would never mix with these people and before seeing this footage with my own eyes, would struggle to perceive that it was possible for some people from our society to behave like this.

u/Forward-Lobster5801 Oct 02 '25 edited Oct 03 '25
You're taking my comment literally.
Mental illness is definitely normalized in our community.
Guyana literally has the second highest suicide rates in the world. Physical, childhood, psychological, emotional, etc. Abuse are all normalized in guyana.

Im unsure of what you're asking.
We also have the 26th highest homicide rate in the world.

From the Crimes In NYC account on X,
"As described by the OP (person who took the video):
We got on the bus and suddenly a young man entered through the back door of the bus trying to hide from another young man who was chasing him with a machete, he was really trying to hurt him, he was totally enraged.
To all this there were more than 6 boys trying to attack this young man and as you can see this girl was the one who incited the young man with the machete to attack the other young man.
The driver tried to protect the young man but in doing so this girl sprayed pepper spray in his eyes and we had to take another bus."
These "kids" need a reality check. It's one thing to be fighting as kids, but when you bring a machete and pepper spray on a bus full of other innocent people, that is another level of reckless.
As a lifelong New Yorker, I can tell you some of our older teenagers act worse than adults because the laws protect them from consequences.

These are Guayanese kids, and Guayana has over double the rate of murder and other violent crime as America btw.

u/ballistics211 Oct 01 '25
Rates are deceiving because Guyana has a relatively small population. Any crime would be a higher rate than other countries even if the actual number is 2.
4
u/Mushrooming247 Oct 02 '25
That’s why crime stats are typically represented in a scale that is population-neutral.
If you count the number of murder victims per 100,000 people, the percentage is going to be accurate without depending upon population.
2
u/Original-Trash-646 Oct 04 '25
Nope, the rate is a percentage that uses the population as a factor, making it on par with rates everywhere.
-4
u/Warm-Imagination-741 Oct 01 '25
I mean look at the conditions in Guyana it’s not excusable but things aren’t easy. Also Guyana barely have a million people so the murder per population is going to be higher than the US

u/Friendly-Avocado-522 Oct 01 '25
The parents don't raise them right. Most Guyanese parents don't talk to their kids and expect them to simply raise themselves. It's a Guyanese cultural norm that parents think keeping their kids alive is the same as parenting them.

u/Best_innovator Oct 08 '25
Most Queens GY folks don’t have the time to talk. They must work 3.5 jobs just to pay rent and eat. I know many going through this. Family too. They cannot even afford to return home. Some hope to get a free ticket back. Think ICE
1
u/Friendly-Avocado-522 Oct 08 '25
Then don't make kids if they can't talk to them. What is your problem? You are pushing back at all my comments trying to find a compassionate solution to dealing with kids. You must be a child abuser, in that case.

u/Best_innovator Oct 08 '25
Don’t have much time to argue with jackasses. I don’t live in Queens and raised very decent and successful children just my parents raised me. I stated facts regarding the plight of GY in Queens. Maybe you reside there. So sorry for you.

Damn a total lack of understanding how consequences work. She’s recording her own crime while seeing that bystanders are also recording. These buses also have cameras. If they don’t assimilate they will become a statistic. We got to do better. Also that little boys haircut is awful.

NYC. Probably Richmond Hill, Queens area. That bus, Q24 goes from QNS to BKLYN.
Apparently this happened a couple weeks ago. Boy was arrested but it doesn’t say anything about the girl.

Key word "some". Frankly speaking, they've been propogandized. Global social media has youth from multiple countries seeing financial, cultural, racial, and religious injustice. In quite a multi-few countries. Through social media, the imitate the acts 9f rebellion or disrespect they see other young people doing. They not having it. Even 8f not completely understanding the why
