[QUOTE="BigPoppa, post: 15691829, member: 177587"] I was a complete douche when I was younger (did things worse than those kids, including running from the cops in a car). My brother was an angel (completely). Same parents. I was even disciplined extremely well (got my arse beat, etc.). You can't parent away personality, you can only demonstrate what good choices are. The child still makes the decision on whether or not to make good or poor choices. Fortunately, I eventually grew up. Somewhat. What is truly sad is those who really think these children deserved to die for their actions. Think about what you've written. I know this is the internet and one can exercise a bit more brevity due to the anonymity, but do you really think this "crime" should carry a death sentence? Think really hard about that. As I said before, the police did the right thing backing off and believe it or not, they tend to due that when they find out the suspect is a juvenile. Not always, but often. Stating these kids got what they deserved is akin to saying that someone running a stop sign deserves to be put to death. Our justice has already determined what is a capital crime and what is not. Running from the police and/or speeding is not a capital crime. I understand your "zero tolerance" ideology. I've seen it quite a bit over my life. It is usually from people who have held sheltered lives, never interacting with those they believe beneath them, either in stature, race, and/or religion. It doesn't make me angry at you. As a matter of fact, I understand. I don't agree, but I understand. Many of the statements made in this thread are.....disheartening. <3 daughters, 1 grandchild on the way [/QUOTE]
