... There's a bully about to whale into a nerd; a gang of kids stands around
them, some yelling "Fight! Fight!" as the miserable bastard will. Then
another kid pulls out her cell, holds it high, and yells, "Sight! Sight!"
Other kids take up the digital record crusade. ....

What surprised me is that the debate, with actual criticism of the kid doing
the body slam.  The only thing I can see he did wrong was fail to stomp the
bastard while he was down.
