…aaaand how would "they" do this?They need to make the parents accountable. maybe then they will take a more active roll it there kid's life.
By imposing mandatory counseling, fines, parenting classes, anything to bring forth a level of accountability. when i grew up my parents knew all of my friend and there parents, if i did something wrong while i was out my friends parents would beat me call my mom and dad and i got another beating when i got home. hence the saying "it takes a village to raise a kid"…aaaand how would "they" do this?
I'm an old man. When I was a kid parents were financially responsible for their kids misdeeds. Didn't really make much of a difference, there still were asshole kids running around. Assholes and punks will always be assholes and punksThey need to make the parents accountable. maybe then they will take a more active roll it there kid's life.
I remember the sound of the belt whipping thru the pant loops right before I got whacked lol
True you can not save everyone, but dose that mean you don't even try to save at least one?I'm an old man. When I was a kid parents were financially responsible for their kids misdeeds.

Those mandatory impositions are already in place. Courts order these already and parents blow them off. It takes multiple no shows (from the parents) and fines that glut the court system for months and years. You can't legislate a value system or morality.By imposing mandatory counseling, fines, parenting classes, anything to bring forth a level of accountability. when i grew up my parents knew all of my friend and there parents, if i did something wrong while i was out my friends parents would beat me call my mom and dad and i got another beating when i got home. hence the saying "it takes a village to raise a kid"
Yes i am sure thats true but what about personal responsibility ? was there anyone else on the bus ? if so why no one intervened. we want to sit back and complain about our system of checks and balances as long as we don't have to get involved.Those mandatory impositions are already in place.

It's shouldn't be the government's job. People should be allowed to defend themselves when the incident happens. Granted the old lady prob. couldn't defend herself too well, but if another stepped in on her behalf and smacked those two little punks, they would learn right away that harassing someone probably isn't a good idea.

Exactly my point. The law protects the criminals. If anyone intervened and smacked down the teens, THEY would get sued. Like I said, if people were allowed to defend themselves and others without the law getting involved (these more minor issues) It would make people thing twice.Yes i am sure thats true but what about personal responsibility ? was there anyone else on the bus ? if so why no one intervened. we want to sit back and complain about our system of checks and balances as long as we don't have to get involved.
when will people like you realize you can't legislate morality? i'd worry about your own house and stay the fuck out of everyone's business.
your cliche of "it takes a village to raise a child" is more bullshit for the brain dead. it takes an aware and involved parent
If you would have read my first post i clearly stated that the parents are the ones to blame. but nooooooo i guess you missed that part hu ? we were discussing more ways to make the parents accountable. And i am a proud NRA member, and have a concealed permit and my baby bettsy goes with me every where. And why can't we have an adult conversation and agree to disagree with out the name calling.when will people like you realize you can't legislate morality? i'd worry about your own house and stay the fuck out of everyone's business.

sadly, not always lahada... , we have life, and what is called life without the possibility of parole.. if you get life, you can serve x amount of years and be eligible for parole, but if you have life without, obviously, that means that you're never going to see the light of day again..This happened in the UK???!!
Are you aware that the prison system is different there? Do you know that you get 10 years for murder and less for rape so in actual fact you are walking the streets with these people blissfully unaware.
At least in the US, life means life and you don't share society with released murderers, rapists etc.
The issue regarding this current incident is mainly that they are minors, under 16 and can't be dealt with. Fuck political correctness.
Where I live the elderly are majorly respected. The doors open on the metro and if it's busy people look up to give up their seat.
Over there, old people are undoubtably scared to go out and even afraid in their own homes.
ways around that .......just yell i am in fear for my lifeExactly my point. The law protects the criminals. If anyone intervened and smacked down the teens, THEY would get sued. Like I said, if people were allowed to defend themselves and others without the law getting involved (these more minor issues) It would make people thing twice.
We are no longer allowed to defend our person/loved ones.
This^^^
IT's not the village's problem or my responsibility to keep OTHER people's kids in check, but is SHOULD be my right to defend myself if one of those ill behaved little twits tried to put their hands on me. I would go to jail instead though.
