Snow video isn't the only thing that pops up on local Youtube searches. The Brazos Valley also has it's share of fight footage.

Some local posters say they're using Youtube, to vent. "If something happens throughout the day and I get mad about it, I'll post it on Youtube," said Dustin Kemp. "I have a documentary about my house when I lost central air and heating."

Some users say they just post for the fun of it. "I like to make just stupid drum videos with my friends," said Sam Lubinsky.

A few local folks have displayed musical skills online, looking for their 15 minutes of fame.

There are also plenty of Aggie Videos on Youtube. Different videos, they're all on Youtube for different reasons.

"I think everyone's got their own reason for posting stuff on Youtube, but it's a good way to get your message or whatever you're trying to get heard, heard," said Sam Lubinsky.

If you don't like what you see, go to another site. If your children are watching YouTube and you don't like it, be the parent and take and active role in raising your child. Don't blame or expect the schools or media to do it for you. You had the kid; take responsibility.

I think youtube needs to add an idiot clause. Not for us but for the user. It should say "STOP!!WILL THIS VIDEO PUT YOU IN JAIL? IF YOUR ANSWER IS YES, DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH MONEY FOR A GOOD LAWYER". There are some people that you know are going to end up in jail and then there are some that take the fast lane to jail like those kids who beat up that young girl. What a bunch of idiots. HA HA

KBTX needs some new help in the news room. Is this a news team? LETS MAKE OUR NEWS THAT WAY WE DO NOT NEED TO GO OUT OF THE OFFICE. HOW CAN KBTX HAVE A LARGE NEWS ROOM 9 or 10 person staff-news room only and NO RELEVANT LOCAL NEWS?

I understand that asking or making utube monitor and restrict videos is harder than it may seem but the people making these videos do not deserve an outlet for their violence. By becoming news, they are given the thrill they are looking for.

youtube and myspace should be outlawed

I have to agree with Duff. This is just a waste of someone's time. I love the stories about people helping people, but, this?

Let the idiots post the awful things they do. It may be the only way they get caught and held responsible for stupid, cruel things they do.
