Former NFL player's house is TRASHED by 300 drunken teens after Labor Day weekend break-in

A former NFL player’s home was broken into and thoroughly trashed by teenagers in upstate New York over Labor Day weekend.

Brian Holloway, a three time all-pro lineman for the New England Patriots, arrived to his second home in Stephentown on Tuesday to find it covered in urine, graffiti and empty cups and booze bottles.

While he and his family were in Florida, the area high schoolers broke into the $1.5 million house and then with the help of Twitter quickly attracted hundreds of their peers from miles around.

Now Holloway, himself a father of 8, has used the same social media methods to gather 100 of the kids’ names and posted their Twitter messages and photos to a site called HelpMeSave300.

‘So my apologies, I don’t really know what else to do,’ writes Holloway on HelpMeSave300.com. ‘ It’s been quite a gut shot dealing with all of this. I guess I’m still in shock.’

Holloway decided to channel the shock into action.

‘But I want to aside the very strong emotions I’m feeling and focus on the one thing that is extremely clear the lives of these 300 students. I want them to live. I’ve seen too many young people die because of excessing partying, drugs and alcohol.’

Based on the photo with the article, apparently not.

Teens holding a massive party, for the express purpose of destroying himes, is an equal opportunity activity.

Unfortunately.

It amazes me what we are teaching in public schools. It’s bad enough that a dozen kids think it’s OK to break into a house and have a party. But how do you explain 300 kids all thinking that since someone else broke in, they can show up and trash the place.

It is all about “what you can get away with”.

An estate like that and he either didn’t have a security system or it failed miserably. I’d be demanding an explaination from the security company and these little brats’ parents. Each and every one of those brats would be doing major community service and getting menial jobs (not daddy’s money) to pay for the clean up. There would be no time to party for the next year of their snot nosed lives.

This is the story. Quite impressive to try and save the kids who trashed his home.

Ok. Sorry, just skimmed the post and didn’t see pics. Just a bunch of spoiled punk brats. Criminal conduct nonetheless.

That’s pretty bighearted of Holloway to desire what he did, rather than wanting to wreak vengeance.

I don’t know if he has a living gospel faith in the Lord (a question quite apart from “religion” or even “denomination”). But such an anchor is required to truly deal with evil. If one goes at it with halfhearted secular liberalism, the intentions may be nice but the power is not there and so it doesn’t achieve anything. This is not to criticize without knowing. For all I know he’s as devout (whether or not he’s as overtly demonstrative) as Tebow. I haven’t looked it up yet.

But how do you explain . . .

It is the nature of mobs. Kinda' like congress.

Holloway said the partiers broke about 10 windows and glass doors, punched dozens of holes in the walls, dragged kegs of beer across oak floors and left behind an “enormous amount” of graffiti. He put the total damage at more than $20,000, not including personal items that were stolen.

Several teens who weren’t at the party but heard about it showed up this week and helped remove urine-soaked carpets and 10 large trash bags filled with liquor bottles, Holloway said, adding that drug paraphernalia was also found scattered about his property.

kids today are really stupid, they don’t get it that you don’t put your zitty smug face on camera when doing something wrong.

Now will the -parents do something about this because if it were done in SC or parts of the south and Midwest then those kids would be severely dealt with but this is New England which probably means a handful of cash if they promise not to do it again

End result of removing G-d from the classroom and from our culture.
