Twenty years from now we won't need guns to protect ourselves from these kids. We'll need rocket launchers and IED's

Finally, names and pictures of juvenile offenders! I am sick of the way underage thugs get a slap on the wrist and anonymity. I have to do background checks on anyone I hire, but it's practically useless, since no crime committed before the age of 18 will ever pop up.

Its not always the parents fault. There are plenty of kids in Salisbury University with two parent homes that go to church every Sunday...and they still cause problems..guns,drugs, underage drinking..you name it. Parents can only do so much! That age old story about..My mom would have done this to me or that is long gone. You can't spank you children the way it was done 15to 20 yrs ago.
