I think it's about time they took the tasers away from these morons. If cops don't have anything better to do than chase 12 yr old truants around, maybe they should also think about reducing the size of the force.

Even better. Fire them all, except for the one on-call for you, when you finally need one.

In the meantime, of the girl and her friends wish to party instead of go to school, and one of them drunkenly drowns, just chalk it up to "personal choice' and another victory for brainless Libertarianism...that is the kind that ignores the "responsible" parts, and only concetrates on the 'liberty' part.

We may not be our brother's keeper, but are damned sure his kids keepers, when he refuses to do the job.
