These kids are adults, and they deserve to go to jail for a good long while.
Taro T Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 I wonder if they will think the "joke" is still funny when they are spending the next 20 or so years in jail? How flippin' stupid can you get?

VABills Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Won't happen because they are white 622020[/snapback] I am not sure why that matters. Sounds very racist on your part to even state that.
Mickey Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 I thought these arson attacks were supposedly the work of jewsish black anti-christian homosexual democrats. Hmmmph. Go figure.

John Adams Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Not sure what a Jewsish is. But otherwise it descibes you to a tee. 622069[/snapback] Who hijacked VA's account? We all know he can't spell cat even if you spot him the c and a.
VABills Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Who hijacked VA's account? We all know he can't spell cat even if you spot him the c and a. 622115[/snapback] Umm.. I didn't spell everything correct. I had describes spelled wrong.
KD in CA Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 What a bunch of scumbags. I'm sure the homeboys at the Alabama State Pen will make them feel right at home.
Campy Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Just waiting for the hand-wringers to ooze from the woodwork and tell us about how we must understand today's troubled youth... 621514[/snapback] I really do think we have a major misunderstanding of today's youth. We fail to understand that most of their "issues" can be resolved with either a smack upside the head or a boot on the arse.
stuckincincy Posted March 9, 2006 Author Posted March 9, 2006 I really do think we have a major misunderstanding of today's youth. We fail to understand that most of their "issues" can be resolved with either a smack upside the head or a boot on the arse. 622198[/snapback] The articles will soon be showing up in my newspaper about parents agonizing about their precious ones getting in trouble during their "Spring Break" vacations to Florida. It doesn't seem to occur to them to not pay to send their kiddies there in the first place. See also the angst about fat and sugar-laden school lunches (doesn't take a lot effort to make a peanut butter sandwich and throw it into a paper bag along with an apple and give it to Junior or Juniorette along with a quarter for a half-pint of milk) .
Ghost of BiB Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 The day before the arrests, authorities spoke with Cloyd's parents, Kimberly and Michael Cloyd. The father said his son admitted that "he knew who did it and he was there," according to court papers WTF??? Way to teach values, Dad. Had they not tracked the tires, mommy and daddy would have sat on this?

Sounds like the 60s, only they didn't have a Vietnam War or a McCarthy to protest...wait! Oh man we have really sunk to a new level. Guess the guy who wrote "Rioting Mainly for Fun and Profit" was right!

pdh1 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 I am not sure why that matters. Sounds very racist on your part to even state that. 622044[/snapback] Meaning they will get the book thrown at them, and no one will make excuses for them. Which is they way it should be. Concern about the perpetrators' upbring and social environment only are brought into it when the criminals are part of a perceived victim class. Example: The thugs who burned France, destroyed property, and even killed someone, where described by the BBC as: "Frustrated and desperate youths who feel left out of French society"
Mickey Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Not sure what a Jewsish is. But otherwise it describes you to a tee. 622069[/snapback] Its like Jewish only better.
Ghost of BiB Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Yeh you do... 622303[/snapback] Can't beat the classics.
YellowLinesandArmadillos Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Can't beat the classics. 622320[/snapback] Ever read a book about Denis Kucinich when he was mayor of Cleveland, something called Crisis Politics... It was interesting about an anti-establishment guy, still is a left wingnut, fighting a corporation over a municipal electric company. Led to his demise as mayor, but still a very interesting read about local hard ball politics.
