I don't understand why kids are turning to violence for entertainment now! It's like.. when I was younger, I played video games, watched tv, hung out with friends, went to the movies.. did SOMETHING, but we were never violent. I just don't understand why kids are changing so much. Are the parents neglecting them? So many people having kids before they should and not being able to raise them correctly. I admit some people have mental problems but it's just sad how horrible the generations are progressing, or should I say degressing, regressing..
"Changing so much?" This is typical ghetto thug behavior for generations.
"We were bored" is more likely a politically correct euphemism for "he was white."
Todays youth are dangerous in their nature. When in groups of two or more they are more dangerous. They can be just as dangerous with a baseball bat or something else or just their hands. Keep this in mind when you are on a jury and they walk in dressed in a suit and carrying a bible.
When I see titles of threads that don't give a clue as to the topic, I often just skip over them. Some folks like mystery threads, I leave those to them.
Meanwhile, back on topic of what I asked earlier in THIS thread, anyone know what the hand signs mean?
I agree part of the problem is the parents. When they are absent, in jail, and not teaching values or using discipline, this is some of the crap that goes on in the world. And then look - the parents deny, deny, deny - "Oh, not MY baby boy! He's so innocent!" and even if their "baby boy" does murder, they don't care. All they care about is their own. People do not value life anymore.
This is just sad. I mean the guy didn't do anything wrong, he was just there. The one thing that I did decide is that if someone ever attacked me, I don't care if it's a teen or not, I will defend myself. I would rather that, then end up dead in a ditch somewhere. People say, "Awww, but they are children" and maybe so, but they stopped being kids in my eyes the minute they stepped into an adult role and picked that gun up, fired and killed that man.
Maybe it's the lack of feeling, of having real relationships, of feeling emotion. We're all glued to electronic devices, easier to type anonymously to someone rather than have a conversation with a family member, friend, etc.
Who do we blame? - the National Rifle Association (NRA) for making it FAR too easy to obtain guns.
When a drunk driver kills an innocent bystander do you blame the car or the drunk driver?
