Don't Go To Oniontown

Two teenagers who drove to Oniontown, New York after a series of YouTube videos portrayed the hamlet as a run-down, backwoods dump were pelted with rocks by an angry group of young residents, authorities said. Well, I guess that fixes that image misconcecption.

The two 17 year olds from Mahopac, about 30 miles south of Oniontown, suffered head and face injuries. Troopers arrested a 17-year-old from Oniontown on Thursday and charged him with criminal mischief. Additional arrests were expected, police said. but also admitted it wasn't the first time out-of-towners were attacked by local residents.

"The biggest recommendation at this point is for everybody to stay out of there," they said. "Anybody that doesn't belong there, anybody that's not a resident, just stay out of Oniontown." What kind of lawless badlands are they that the police are warning people not to pass through?

In one video called "Oniontown Adventures," three boys with foul mouths drive up to the town. While there, they mock the poverty they find — giggling at the garbage strewn along the streets and the abandoned cars in the front yards of trailer parks. Other videos with different people on camera similarly depict the tiny community as the brunt of jokes.

Just as frightening as that podunk town - the boy band O'Town. Also stay away!
