Breaking and entering, vandalism, destruction of property? Just take some pictures and post them to facebook and twitter. My fucking god.

Hopefully most of them will end up with some nice felony records.

I don't they've gotten any stupider, proper... I just think now they have tech.

But, they may be getting stupider as the society they live in gets more and more liberalized.

I think they're getting stupider. Most vandals back in my day spraypainted an alias instead of sending a video of themselves doing it over a public network. When we had raves, we didn't leave signed notes behind with our phone numbers, addresses, or photos.

His website looking for help identifying them all.

Teens are simply stupid by nature. They basically don't know shit, yet think they know everything. We all went through it.

Get them in groups, and it's a bunch of young roosters trying to one up each other to impress the hens.

To them, that was the most important night ever. In 20 years, they'll barely remember it, and they'll think back and reflect on how stupid they were...

I support his move 100%.

The parents who got pissed at him are worse than the kids. The kids have an excuse because they're kids, and thus, ignorant. The parents should know better, and thus, are scum.

Nice open letter to the parents.

Although, I've heard 3 kids turned themselves in, not 1.

And how bad are these parents? Follow your kids on social media. Even if they set up fake accounts, it takes very little work to figure that out.

Holloway said that among those charged was a young man he had taken into his family for a time as a homeless teen, who's accused of organizing and promoting the party.


I feel bad about the fact homeless people exist. I would help anyone who was homeless due to a string of bad luck to help them get themselves back on their feet.

Lots of people, though, are homeless for a reason. Like this kid here. I am guessing his actual parents got tired of his shit and wrote him off as "defective."
