CJ, > It has nothing to do with Columbine.

Our sensitivities toward rebellious youth has been turned sky-high thanks to Columbine. The truth is that there are a LOT of Eric Harrises, Dylan Klebolds, and Cho Seung-Huis out there. Thankfully 99.999% of them don't carry out their threats, but all it takes is one.

By the way, a year ago, a bunch of teenage punks went around spraying racial slurs and death threats on garage doors and parked cars in my neighborhood. Anti-black, anti-Muslim crap. (And I don't live too far away from the "safest city in the nation.")

Another case of racism or just some rebellious losers thinking they're all bad and s--t? I'd rather not glorify them at all. Just catch the punks, force them to do a thousand hours of community service (minimum), and let the entire community know who they are.
