>>>If these kids wouldn’t be out doing things they shouln’t or going into the bad parts of town or elements late at night this type of stuff would never have happened in the first place.

I'm sorry....but what a terrible...and dare I say un-American...thing to say.

As an American....and it doesn't matter WHO it is...if I want to be out at midnight...or 3 am...I have that right. If I'm out minding my own business in a public area...and something bad happens to me...THAT AIN'T MY FAULT.

What you are saying is like telling someone its their fault their car got stolen if they forgot to lock the door.

WRONG.

And yes, I am out regularly walking past midnight. I go on very long walks (at least 5 miles a day and 10 - 13 miles once a week) at night because its too hot to do it in the day here in SE TX. There's less traffic and its peaceful. If something happens to me...it ain't my fault. The responsibility lies with the person who did the illegal action.

Imagine a world where there’s common sense. A play where your brain tells you it’s not safe to wander into shared infested waters, to walk into gator infested swamps, or stick your heads into bee hives. There’s a book called “Whatever Happen (sic) to Common Sense” by a black guy named “E.T. Williams”. I like the guy. I suggest you read it.
