Three sixth-grade boys at a Christian school in Northern Virginia pinned down a black classmate and cut off some of her dreadlocks while telling her her hair was "nappy" and "ugly," she told News4.

Twelve-year-old Amari Allen said the three boys, who she said are white, cut off her hair on Monday. She's a student at Immanuel Christian School in Springfield, Virginia, where Vice President Mike Pence's wife, Karen Pence, teaches part-time.

"They said my hair was nappy and I was ugly," she said.

Amari's grandfather Dewaune Allen said the ambush hurt him.

Story has my blood boiling. Also mike pence's wife teaches at the school.

Disgusting.

Kids can be horrible - and no doubt this trio was instilled with wonderful values by their parents.

On Monday, she was at recess and about to go down a slide when one of the boys grabbed her and put a hand over her mouth. Another boy grabbed her arms. A third boy cut off some of her hair.

surely this will lead to severe repercussions from the sch-

Immanuel Christian School is an evangelical private school that that explicitly bars its employees from engaging in or condoning "homosexual or lesbian sexual activity" and "transgender identity," as NBC News reported earlier this year.

In January, Karen Pence started teaching art there two days a week after previously working at the school for 12 years.

The office of the second lady did not immediately respond to an inquiry about the incident this week.

oh

Another fucked up "Christian" school where little white boys probably get a full lesson in Trumpisms at home from their parents.

Fucking disgusting. This type of behavior is learned, not inherent. Their parents should be taken to task for sure, but this is also a moment for the boys to learn about accountability and consequence.

The school itself also sounds pretty fucking garbage.

Why would this girl's parents send her to this type of school? Like, I'm not trying to victim blame (or more accurately, victim's parents blaming), but having Pence's "mother" teaching there should throw up a bunch of red flags for a family of color. Immediately when I saw that it was THAT school, I stopped thinking that there'd be any sort of punishment from this.

This type of behavior at a school like this isn't a flaw, it's a feature.

Springfield, VA is supposed to be the slightly less-racist part in Northern VA.

of course the minorities accepted there trend Latino and Asian more than black, and Virginia is still Virginia.

Three sixth grade boys are already targeting a girl, covering her mouth, pinning her down and assaulting her.

They fucking need to be expelled and some serious therapy. Jesus.

quality of education, distance to school etc

Big issue with US and education is sometimes you're stuck with the best of the worst

I hope these kids get punished for doing this to the poor girl. What a bunch of assholes. Fuck their parents too.

I hope the girl overcomes this.

This is horrible. I don't want to think about all the things they've been saying to this poor girl before this assault.

I know it's unlikely but here's hoping for expulsion and some healthily shame thrown on the parents.

I gotta say, I totally knew what I was doing when I was in 6th grade. Those are teenagers, not children. They need appropriate correction.

All three of those boys thought this was a good idea.

Well let's see what happens.

fake edit- of course I'm not going to say what I really want to say, but ERA doesn't like violence so.
