My dude, if you think telling a kid not to do something means they won’t do it, you’re obviously not a parent.

You can’t reasonably assume a kid isn’t going to do something at six. Even if you’ve told them not to do that thing every day of their life. It’s why child locks exist. It’s why kids end up in the hospital every day.

In a perfect world you could just type out on a keyboard “Johnny isn’t allowed to go in the pool area without an adult” and he’d listen. in the real world Johnny wants the ball, and it’ll be real quick, and mommy is busy, and he’s bringing the dog that counts, and oh shit Johnny drowned.

This seems overly knee jerky. So if good parents have a kid who shoots a teacher, with a gun that came from another kid at school, those good parents should go to jail?

You realize six isn’t old enough to know what they are truly doing. They don’t grasp life vs death, they would likely not even see “shooting the teacher” as anything more than play before they did it. It’s exactly for this reason that we don’t hold children accountable in the same way we do adults.

Are there outliers? Absolutely. But to just make a blanket statement that every adult involved should go to jail is an extreme I just can’t agree with.

A six year old is very unlikely to fully grasp what they are doing, and a parent wouldn’t necessarily “think their kid might shoot someone”.

If you want to be pedantic, I suppose “got the gun from another kid” is more reasonable?

Mad Max-esque convoys.

They explicitly said they weren’t there to stop Israel from arresting them iirc.

That’s insane to me. I’m all for not drug testing the guy working at McDonald’s, but anyone overseeing the safety of others sends like a common sense group to test.

Wait, bus drivers don’t get drug tested?

Yeah, this is proven by the ultra Christian types who lets their kids die “because it’s what god wants”, or the abusive parents, or the ones who are absent 99% of the time, or the ones who leave their kids in the car to do dumb shit, and on and on.

We still get that now. As if cold things can’t exist when it’s hotter.

Being ugly helps but the point stands. :D

I mean, let’s be honest here. In high school there was always at least one overly good looking guy everyone thought would become a model.

Doesn’t excuse the teacher for raping him though. I can be around beautiful people all day long and manage to not have sex with them just fine, nevermind the act being illegal.

“Criminal” in the same way as jaywalking.

While I agree, these laws aren’t being made because smokers keep accidentally smoking near others, it’s because a large number of smokers can’t be assed to keep their distance. The major place I notice smokers is when they are just meandering through a large crowd as if everyone around them is fine with the smoke.

The issue with smoking is the second hand smoke. It causes cancer, among many other health issues. Vape on the other hand doesn’t really have this same concern.

They aren’t banning smoking because of nicotine, they are banning it because it causes cancer.

Do you often spill drinks into the mouths of passerby’s?

The issue isn’t the substance, it’s the second hand smoke. Children are smart enough to know “this is a thing my parents do that I can’t” but no level of smart can keep the air they breath from containing smoke.

A lot of idiot parents assume “if the school is open, it’s safe enough together go. If there was an actual problem they would close it.”

“We” threw 2 million dollars at the problem and pretended that was just as helpful as sending actual aid, as had been done in the past.

Hey, so, can you highlight the part where he Denys that it was a Nazi salute? I must be blind because none of those words mean “that wasn’t a Nazi salute” or anything even close.

This is like when my kid would get in trouble, and instead of owning up to it he would get mad at anyone saying he did the thing he did.

<.< What are the cartels trying to intimidate you for?
