She could be a real a-hole.
So a 17 yr old can make a myspace page about how he is planning to kill his neighbor or even the president and you being the judge would release him?
btw ... Just for you, I'll swing by the graveyard and speak with my parents about my behavior back in the 50's and 60's.
After hearing so many bad things about MySpace, I asked my friend's kids and they are both on it and their cousins in Albuquerque are on it too. Those kids all have a 4.0 grade average, so it's not just the "bad" kids who are there. None of their parents knew that they were members, either. I've seen things that I would equate with soft porn. In my life, I've never seen anything like it. The language is laced with profanity of the worst kind, and sexual images/content are every where. I have read profiles of some of those kids and they've given out their full names, addresses, parents names, schools, etc. They could already be victims of identity theft. They won't even know it until they are old enough to have credit, and are rejected for bad credit. Obtained by someone who stole their identity while they were on MySpace. There are sexual predators who are stalking some of these kids and they don't understand the danger they are in.
