“When I f______d up at age 16, the chief of police recommended that I be hung up by my toes and the local kids be called in to use me for dart practice”

Seems pretty extreme. How bad did you eff up? Seems you got over it though

A little gunplay...nobody got hurt but the guy’s family supposedly got scared to death, which is what set off the chief.

The details are not important. It took me years to overcome the problem. Trust me, NOBODY got hurt.

I only mention it because of the chief’s “colorful” and “flamboyant” reaction, which I always remember when I hear about “yoot” crime.

In the ‘60’s, police were much more free-wheeling in how they handled things. No cop today would ever say something like that.
