Point taken and understood, but the article was about a kid getting his ass kicked by some punks who wanted his shoes.
When I was that boy’s age I spent my free time working on the family farm. My money came hard and I never would have considered spending a bunch of it on some stupid shoes.
But if one of my buddies wanted to spend his money on stupid stuff I figure that was his business.
Understood.And yes,I did go off the rails a bit.But as I noted in an earlier post it was so obvious to me that the theft was so nauseating that it didn't really warrant a response.
Maybe I'm just gettin' old and insist on harping on the good old days when I walked 9 miles to school,in the snow.
