Oh please! Yeah, we all know how whining innocent angelic teens never do anything wrong. If there weren't any problems, why would Sonic and K-mart want to runoff such a large number of clientele? You might want to consider renting "Heathers" to get a better perspective.

I grew up in Houston, and did my share of the 'Westheimer cruise' in high school. I have no doubt that this location must have been having an ongoing problem with teen mischief, you have no idea how large those crowds of kids can get. We did our share of rowdiness, and these days it seems to often escalate even further. If the cops never go in and never occassionally send a message, Houston might get their opportunity to enjoy http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial/20020819/1048514.asp or http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/735589/posts. Its already happened repeatedly in nearby Galveston.

And why is protecting private property rights and anti-loitering ok with homeless bums, but not with post-midnight hooligan teens?

I'm sorry if you've got a chip on your shoulder against LE, but sometimes they actually are doing the right thing. (Which you guys seem to NEVER admit.) You wouldn't perhaps be from Massillion, OH?

No police state here in Georgia! Must be awful to be so oppressed like you are.

You people need to get a grip!
