The media has educated today's youth about violence. Graphic portrayals of violent acts in movies have given teens a blueprint to follow. Those two boys didn't just think this stuff up....

In my HS days the "bad kids" snuck into the woods to smoke cigarettes...

How times change.

My sentiments exactly these media clowns are pitiful but I guess they ran out of Jon Benet Ramsay stories. Interview every lunatic group with an agenda, hell don't try to ask the hard questions keep it simple blame tv, movies and on and on ad nauseum. Here in the mountain community I live in they just banned trenchcoats, I wonder how all the business execs in NYC would take to having their London Fogs scrapped. These so called school board geniuses all espouse the same line we need to talk to the kids, involve them listen to them yadda yadda.Then when they get the chance instead of asking them and involving them in VOLUNTARILY giving up this apparell they just yank the rug out from them and drive the wedge in further. Hell now they can't even indentify those they are concerned about and even after having admitted changing clothes won't change behavior.
Unfortunately the media won't stop I have e-mailed them, insulted them they don't care it's a circus and they want their ratings.I become more sickened each day to be a member of the human race.
