A 12-year-old and a 14-year-old are accused of trying to rob a police substation
Tough guys eh?
You can’t say no to a Double-Dog Black-Eyed Dare!
This is absolute proof that the school systems have failed.
They didn’t know how to read: “POLICE STATION”. What, did they think it was a bank or something?
Products of public education. They couldn’t read the sign that said “Police Station.”
These children have not learned proper manners. There are times when I object to calling young thugs like these two children. This time I think it is needed. Having the whole nation call them little children is sure to upset their precious little hearts. I would also throw their precious little buts in jail.
Yeah, 12 and 14 and already attempting armed robbery. I don't see a bright future for these two. I see only victims of their crimes.
LOL. There probably isn’t even a dollar in cash at that counter.
I wonder what they were thinking.
I think my pet rock has a higher IQ.
Officials Boys Tried To Hold Up Police Station (Florida)
No it isn't even close to absolute proof of anything other than there are a couple of sets of parents (provided these weren't siblings, then only one set) out there who didn't do their job.
Sorry you missed my sarcasm.
I guess I did. I guess it’s just typical of many people (especially me sometimes)to read a post and be in such a hurry to respond that we don’t read between the lines. Sorry for my hurried response.
BTW, I’ve never ascribed to the “Failed Schools” belief. I’m not defending public schools, but as you state, it usually starts at home.
