The shoving was just fine.
The kid is really lucky.
“Even if they throw a rock at the car, it doesn’t justify beating up a child. It just doesn’t,’ he said.”
Shoving isn’t beating up. Not even close.
Imo, it’s the father that needs the beating.
This will NOT be the last time Alex Anderson will appear in the papers.
Never ever have witnesses when striking a kid.
A takes a Real Man to shove a 12 year old child.
I suspect William Conte will experience similar actions when in the lock-up.
“Christian, however, says there is never a reason for an adult to put their hands on a child.”
Considering this article lists a case where it would be justified then that is just an insane statement. So the man can’t protect his own wife and children because the offender is child? Like I said- Insanity.
Christian [Christian Anderson?], however, says there is never a reason for an adult to put their hands on a child.
‘Even if they throw a rock at the car, it doesn’t justify beating up a child. It just doesn’t,’ he said.
OK buddy I’d give you one chance to discipline your little thug then I’d clean your clock.
Got my bat and went and stood in the middle of the street. They peered out at me and decided that was it. No parents came to complain. I was a lot more young a friskier then.
Dunno quite what I would have done if one of the little bastards had taken another run.
Throwing a rock at a moving vehicle is a felony, I believe.
I would support shooting the boy to death.
the more kids that end up on their keister for acting like juvenile delinquents the better
Wrong.
Should not be any crimes for adults dealing with minor thugs/crybullies.
Not dealng with these kids quickly trains them to be crybully assholes the rest of their lives.
These are kids that need the crap beaten put of them because civilized society isnt going to put up with their uncivil behavior, they need to learn this kind of stuff will get them take care of until it sinks in you arent going to get away treating people like this.
both his parents are worthless scum for raising and defeding such a monster.
The boy needs a spanking, and he needs a real father who will give it to him.
Puzzling issue this “low life” and other accusations, and throwing a dead snake. Is more going on or is this just kids taking brattiness to new extremes?
The teens in my neighborhood used to pick up the people across the street’s Volkswagon bug and put it on the sidewalk. My pop was home one night and saw this. He chased them. He kicked this one fat guy in the ass as he was fleeing. He said he almost lost his shoe, he got him that good.
BTW, that kid’s arm sling reminds me of Ted Kennedy’s neck brace.
Shoving a child was uncalled for. The adult should act like one, not lose his temper and act like a child.
Bratty boys bothering adults has gone on since the stone age. It is a pain to deal with, but you don’t deal with it through physical violence. The adult was an idiot. He is lucky if he does not get convicted for assault.
the writer shouldn’t confuse disciplining a child with beating one up.
Lots of crass talk from internet commandos on this thread. It is sickening.
I grew up on Long Island. There were plenty of punk asses that needed a good beat down from adults. I have no doubt this might be one of them.
