"Weise gunned down his grandfather and the man's girlfriend, put on his grandfather's police-issue belt and bulletproof vest, and drove his marked squad car to a high school, where he began shooting his classmates at will."
American youth is full of in your face attitude. It is boiling over.
Lack of parenting, watering down of our judicial/penal system.............lack of accountablility...everybody's a victim and then some...
What else would you like me to call it? We haven't done a very good job of showing them how to grow up.
Seems to me that our youth (and all aspects of ourt society) just feel like they haven't been given enough time...probably too much candy, money, cars, tuition, ........but just not enough time and energy.
It ain't the kids...it's the parents. It's baby boomers' legacy. They were the first ones to put their own needs before their kids' needs. They were the ones who pushed for women to leave the home to work so they could have the "finer" things in life. These are the dad's with the Trophy Wives for leave their wives and kids to fend for themselves while the new wifey gets a new home and sugar daddy bitches cause he has to send a child support check. These are the parents who work 50 - 60 hours a week so they can drive a BMW and have a summer cottage at the lake.
We have a generation of boys raised by women, a generation of children who came home to empty houses, a generation of women who are worthless as wives, and we have a generation of men who think that their little thingies are more important than their children, and it shows.
Don't blame the kids...the chickens are just coming home to roost. As ye sow so shall ye reap.

Try swatting your kid and see how fast you're hauled off in cuffs.
Tard you need to move to Virginia, corporal punishment by parents is alive and well, I actually had a policeman explain that to my oldest girl just a while ago. It is perfectly legal as long as it is a spanking and not a beating.

It is perfectly legal as long as it is a spanking and not a beating.
And who makes that decision? I would LOVE to see what they consider a "beating"....
defn: A "beating" consists of applying a force of 6.7 Newtons or more with a velocity greater than or equal to 3 Meters/second in an area smaller than 300 square centimeters .....
Beatings leave injuries like bruises, cuts, stratches on the low end.
My dad had it down to a fine art, he could make my arse feel like it was on fire yet never left a mark! I don't recall going down and killing people at my school.
I have lit up all 6 of my kids bottoms on occasion and never left a mark, I spanked them, I didn't beat them.
I was injured once spanking one when the inside of my knuckle met with a rivet on a pair of jeans, hurt like hades for almost a week!
