Heh, yeah, combine that with the ban on corporal punishment and suicide rates of parents are gonna soar.What if we had a law that said parents held equally responsible for any crimes their child commits prior to turning 18?
Do your think parents would then want to control their children? If they knew their child's actions could land themselves in jail?
No, bring back corporal punishment too.Heh, yeah, combine that with the ban on corporal punishment and suicide rates of parents are gonna soar.
Tried that. They cried "racism" and the Politicians shit their pants.What if we had a law that said parents held equally responsible for any crimes their child commits prior to turning 18?

"Parents"? You mean "Mommas" instead. And Momma would be far more interested in sueing the cops for putting her kid in jail in the first place.In fact, lock the kid up with the parents and let them mete out the corporal punishment.
Do you think the fathers are in those "homes"?What if we had a law that said parents held equally responsible for any crimes their child commits prior to turning 18?

When?Tried that.
I forget where (several places, including Akron, Ohio) but in the 1970s this was experimented with.When?
I don't recall there ever being a law that says parents are fully responsible for any crimes their children commit.
Where was it that it was tried?
Exactly. Even if they were even talked about, it's nothing like I am suggesting.I forget where (several places, including Akron, Ohio) but in the 1970s this was experimented with.
In Stow, Ohio, an Akron suburb, the mayor was briefly arrested - when his minor son was found with large quantities (trafficking amounts) of drugs.
I remember the CLAIM that other places had also enacted laws. Never heard moar - it may be that courts overturned those laws, on the reasonable principle that one person is not to be held responsible for the acts of another.
I'm going by memory here. The public-access censored search engines, which are not...they're no help. Someone with Lexis-Nexis can maybe research further.
I did, a long time ago.Add the whole state of Colorado to the list of shit holes.
Guy was shit faced drunk.WTF is wrong with peoples? When someone points a gun at you you reaction should NOT be walking towards them and cursing.
Don't matter if it's a cop or anyone else.
Dumb shits doing dumb shit.
We need to Make Policing Grate Again.Guy was shit faced drunk.
His f'ed up brain was telling him he was invincible.
Yep, like it was yesterday.Remember Bonnie and Clyde?
Probably.I always kinda thought that Bonnie was the brains behind that operation and Clyde just went along with all of it for the free ¶√$$¥
Do you think the "mothers," fried out on drugs, morbidly obese, would do anything but scream Ray-Sissm to the (also mine-ore-itty) judge(s)?
