[thughes]

Well, that should fix the problem, way to go NY!


"In a controversial move, Palmyra police have arrested the grandparents of two teenagers who they say are wracking havoc on the town with repeated crimes."

"According to the Palmyra Police Chief Kyle Dinardo, this was done to prevent the teens from continuing their criminal spree, which now includes charges of criminal mischief, and criminal trespass, amongst others."

"The teenagers, aged 14 and 13, are reportedly behind nearly 30 incidents, escalating from minor violations to serious crimes, causing damages nearing $10,000. This includes destruction of property, breaking into buildings, and defacing the canal trail with offensive graffiti."

"Police say that these teens represent a significant portion of local youth crime, with one of them being involved in 60% of the cases."

Well, half the Bronx & Brooklyn would be under arrest should this principle be applied non discriminating! Do it! With prejudice that the unlawful behavior is one that is taught! Hold all parents responsible along with the little miscreant's!

Back in the 50’s a family did not want to see a policeman at their house, especially if one of the siblings caused problems to warrant the policeman to be there. The Parents would be shamed and most likely soon to move as the neighbors would cease any interactions. Back then, no internet and tv was just sprouting roots so people depended on each other for news, help, borrow food..etc. neighbors wouldn’t put up with trash and if necessary, handle it theirselves and the Police would not get involved. But, that was then.

If they have terrorized the town why are they in the grandparents custody and why aren’t they in jail. So who is to blame?
