14-year-old 'gangsters' organise fights online via their blog

This blog belongs to a 'gang' of 14-year-olds, who use it to plot fights and 'hits' on targeted youngsters. The blog includes a list of members and hierarchy, including details like 'Fighting skills' and terms of membership.

STOMPer Amused also claims one member had earlier encouraged the use of vulgarities in his own blog's shout-box in a previous STOMP article. The full story can be found here.

In an email today (Jan 24), Amused wrote:

"Recently there was an article on STOMP about a 14-year-old student openly welcoming vulgar comments in his blog shout-box. The article resulted in much uproar, which caused the owner to close the blog and apologize.

"Yet here another blog has been set up and the owner (if I'm not mistaken) could be seen participating in the gang, encouraging more to join their 'brotherhood'.

"Apparently nothing can stop these youngsters until it is too late."
