Gone are the days we could just plank or Harlem shake. Sad!

Alpert pointed to a growing lack of accountability among younger generations as a contributing factor to the bad behavior sweeping the nation. "As a psychotherapist, I see a generation raised without enough structure," Alpert said. "Too many parents have been afraid to say ‘no,’ schools hesitate to discipline and society tiptoes around holding young people accountable. The result is exactly what we're seeing play out across our country: Teens testing limits because they haven’t learned where those limits are."


Pretty much

I am going to use this thread. This is a video of a police stop in which the woman tries to flee and it says she ran over a policeman.

They are able to get her out of the vehicle while she is taking off. There is a policeman down whose leg looks injured. They have to go deal with her. When the police come back to where the down policeman is at, the guy, not the one on the ground, says he was the one who was run over.

It all starts at 18 seconds.



How did that guy hurt his leg?

Sounds like they need some midnight basketball and poetry slams to let off that "wildin" steam

Welcome to modern day policing. Add in the ghetto culture of inner cities and you are in our world.

You don’t need to be a psychotherapist to know that.

These kids are idiots. We used to try to avoid having to deal with the police. They are in public doing whatever, knowing the police will likely get called on them. Then when one does something to get themselves killed it will be "he was just kids wanting to have fun. Its happened because he is black",

They need to start promoting abortions in the hood.

I'm not saying I'm advocating for it, but 6-8 rounds sent downrange into the pile of dumbasses would put a stop to this shite.

Welcome to the SJW world of 'disparate outcomes'... will never happen.

Jailing a 16-17yr old for a year for flash mob shenanigans really IS a bit much. I don't know HOW these things are going to be deterred.

Maybe, once busted for flash mob behavior, they can be geofenced into their own neighborhoods- excepting school and employment. ?? Like house arrest but hood arrest instead.

Yeah right. Like there is a judge in those cities that will give them a year in jail.

When I was a kid in the 70’s and teenager/college in the 80’s police would crack skulls with no apologies. Political correctness was unknown. That’s why we avoided them. No body cams or cameras back then. Kids today have been raised to disrespect all authority figures. We weren’t raised that way. I will say that younger people today are much more aware of the fact that their are some rogue cops out there that need to be scrutinized and have their actions questioned, however.

On Independence Day weekend, a crowd of hundreds of teens descended on an Illinois pool, disturbing families and partaking in illegal activity that led to the arrest of one individual.

While at the pool, officials observed some of the attendees entering the area without paying, smoking marijuana, drinking alcohol and setting off fireworks, police said.
