Oh well.

When will the lawsuits and congressional action begin against spray paint?

Agreed. Always a win when culling of the herd happens.

Jews, Muslims and Catholic theology says boys become men at 14.

#14: "Did I read that right? Since when is a 14 y-old called a “ man”?"

A 14 year old Negro vandal is always a "child" or a "boy" merely a baby.

A 14 year old White vandal is a "man" and should have known better.

“Not sure what to think. Was this kid just you [sic] basic punk...”

I’d have to see the artwork. If the tag was stupid looking he was your basic Punk, if it had merit maybe he had something going on but chances are... just a punk.

I remember riding the Monorail when it was brand new, during the 1962 World’s Fair.

And a 19-year-old of whatever race is always a “child” if he is shot.

“The news said some kid got hit by the monorail.”

“Oh dear, that’s terrible. That happens so often it seems. They should mark the railroad crossings better. Make them have radar on the trains to automatically stop them if something is on the tracks. The government needs to do something!”

“Um - it’s the monorail.”

“I don’t care how many tracks it has - something needs to be done to save the children.”

“It’s 30 feet up in the air!”

And to think he probably would have been a concert pianist or discovered the cure for cancer.

At the very least you can bet he was an aspiring rapper.
