Good. Maybe it will save him from being a killer one day. |

I think his parents should also be charged with failure to |
|
supervise a minor child. If more parents were held accountable |
|
for the acts of their children, they might be better parents. |
|
But think about this. If he had thrown a rock at me and hit |
|
me, the cops might have arrested him; but he probably wouldn't |
|
have been charged as an adult. That's teaching him it's okay |
|
to throw rocks -- nothing that serious will happen to him. The |
|
laws in this country are not to protect the average citizen -- |
|
they're being used to protect the cops and other government |
|
people. |
|
It used to be the other way around: It used to be if I swore |
|
at someone, I could be arrested for it; but if I swore at a cop, |
|
I wouldn't be since cops were expected to be tougher than |
|
average citizens. |
|
So perhaps the moral of the story is, if you are a child who |
|
wants to throw rocks at other people, go ahead if you want and |
|
nothing serious will happen unless you hit a cop with one. |
|
A mentally ill woman once called me on the phone and threatened |
|
to kill me. I reported it to the police, telling them I thought |
|
she was mentally ill and needed help. They said they couldn't |
|
do anything about it. They said they had no evidence she had a |
|
gun that she could carry out the threat. I said, "I bet if I |
|
called you and threatened to blow up the police station with a |
|
bomb, you'd come and arrest me and wouldn't care if I had a bomb |
|
or not." (I know that was right since they had arrested a kid |
|
for calling in a bomb threat to a school -- and there was no |
|
bomb. They didn't care if there wasn't a bomb. They cared |
|
because the government was being threatened.) They had nothing |
|
to say about that except that I could call someone else about it |
|
if I didn't like how they were doing things. |
|
So I called the woman's sister and explained it to her, hoping |
|
her sister would keep her out of trouble. Her sister was |
|
worried about her too. She would have liked the police to talk |
|
to her since she had been doing other strange things. |
