Why does a child have an ipad? And where were the parents?
ReplyDeleteHell, I don't even have an IPad. Pretty scary to think these are the children we're leaving this country to. We are so screwed.
ReplyDeleteThe information has been updated. According to one source, the victim is a teenager.
ReplyDeleteThe question shouldn't be why does the victim have an iPad. The question should be why do these little hoodlums feel they have the right to steal property from someone else, regardless of what the item is. Where were their parents? Criminal activity at this young an age has a chance to grow into larger, more dangerous actions. I wonder what these "kids" will be doing 5 years from now, maybe forming gangs and beating innocent people with a baseball bat. Maybe they will stab an innocent person on the street as we have seen all to often. These little hoodlums need to be stopped before they become full fledged violent criminals, hopefully it is not too late.
ReplyDeleteTo Towanda,
ReplyDeleteFortunately, these are not the children we'll be leaving the world to. The children who will be prductive & running the world will be my children & the children of people like me, these ghetto thugs will just continue to be ghetto thugs like those befor & after them.
Big Al,
ReplyDeleteI sure hope you're right. I can only hope. Right now, all these ghetto thugs, of all colors and ages, are simply bleeding our society dry with all the handouts and robbing law abiding, hardworking, taxpaying citizens blind and I see no end in sight. Their children only learn what their parents do and on & on it goes through generation after generation with no lessons learned. "PC" just hasn't worked and it's time we, as a society, stop acting like it does. The more these ghetto thugs and the parent /parents of these ghetto thugs get, the more they want and the more they scream racism/discrimination when they don't get it. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! SCREW "PC"
Towanda,
ReplyDeleteI hope I'm right too. I know that I cannot change how the parents of these kids raise & teach them, rather I can only teach decency, respect, intergity, honesty & work ethic to my own kids.
No matter how much money is thrown at the problem of kids having kids, single parents, non-parenting in the home, gang life being the role model, nothing will change in the communities which are struggling most. It will take a wholesale attitude change. Until then, the gaps between the haves & have-nots (not just financial, but social, behavioral, etc), will continue to grow more wide.
