The socialist UK is a sick, evil joke of a country.

Fast forward to 20 more years under the Enemy Regime holding power in Washington, and USA will not be much power.

Three year old vandals, six year old thieves — give me a break! It's simply ludicrous to be using the criminal system to address these issues. Perhaps some child-welfare investigations are warranted; but that's it.

Violent crimes by older children is another matter; but, when you lump them in with three year olds having a temper tantrum, you render the statistics useless.

“Other alleged offences included possession of knives, ....”

The crime here is the criminalization of possession of a knife. When I was in elementary school, every boy had a knife for playing nimbly-peg, or whittling at recess. I gave my son a pocket knife at age 8 — because I wanted to teach him to use it responsibly, while he was still young enough to listen to me. Most boys (and many girls) in his elementary school carried pocket knives, with absolutely no incidents.

USA has no reason to laugh; remember, we had Baby Face Nelson.

My visualization of these criminals:


Toddler (pictured with accomplice) guilty of vandalism.


Sexual harassment? Guilty - even if the "victim" looks cooperative!


Grand theft - cookie!

There are terrible parents who doom their kids to a life of crime, and there are bad kids who go wrong regardless of what the parents do, but most of these pre-k complaints are nonsense.
