The murderers are getting younger and bolder...

D.C. cop injured in shootout with 15-year-old suspect | Emily Babay | Capital Land | Washington Examiner (http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/capital-land/2011/05/dc-cop-injured-shootout-suspect - broken link)

Police responded to a report of a disturbance at a house on the 700 block of Crittenden Street NE shortly after 5 a.m. When officers arrived, an armed 15-year-old boy was on the house's second-floor awning and "ambushed the officers," D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier said.

My point here is that kids aren't any more, or less violent, than they were 100 years ago .. This thread is a fail

Yeah, its very common for 10th graders to mow down cops.

If that is just another day in your neighborhood then my condolences to your family.

Are you 6 or something?

.. read this failed thread .. the argument presented says that "younger and bolder" has more to do with it than what might be considered common.

Kids aren't any more or less violent today, than they were 100 years ago ..
