#orphans?

it looks NOTHING like those shitty fan-arts people kept making. the new zaku looks fantastic, and there are tons of tank-like weapons. i like the uniforms, the space craft they showed off, and the fact that the series takes place on mars.

This news doesn't exactly make my day ...

Roughly two dozen teens, reportedly chanting the name of an Atlanta gang, invaded a MARTA train early Sunday morning, beating and robbing two Delta flight attendants.

The train's other passengers, overwhelmed by the aggressive youths -- believed to range in age from 13 to 18 -- watched the attacks unfold.

“There was blood everywhere, people were hollering and screaming,” a witness told Channel 2 Action News. “We were intimidated. People were terrified. People were trying to run. But there was nowhere to run.”

Flight attendant Parker Stanea, 28, told officers a diminutive black male, no taller than 5′4″, emerged from the pack of teens to hit him over the left eye with a soda can. Stanea was pushed to the ground by the other youths and his wallet, stolen.

His friend, Jose Souza, said he was assaulted by the same suspect, according to the MARTA police incident report. The pink-clad teen punched him in the lip, the 24-year-old Delta employee said, but before they could take anything two unidentified male passengers intervened.

Meanwhile, witnesses said they heard the youths chanting "B.P.F.L," an Atlanta gang that appears to have established a presence within Zone 3 on the south side. They departed the train at the Oakland City station.

Their victims told police they intend to press charges. Neither sustained serious injuries in the attack.

MARTA spokesman Lyle Harris said the transit authority "will not be commenting about what might have prompted the attack or whether those involved were affiliated with any organized group." The investigation continues, he said.

Asked if the attack might prompt MARTA to place more officers on patrol, Harris said no decision has been made.

"Our police department constantly evaluates their plans with regard to patrols and other security measures and makes changes as circumstances dictate," he said.

I'm definitely going to be keeping both eyes even more open for roaming gangs of angry street youths from no on.

Blergh.
