Thread Name: BS: Child crime.
Subject: RE: BS: Child crime.
It seems most probable, to me. I don't quite begrudge anyone having done what they have the power to do but I also think there remain those that don't have the power, don't have those to do it for them, or--wouldn't ask for help.

It's just brutish vanity to suppose that doing something like that is more than it is, it's one drop in one bucket. It's like those badass movies aimed at teens which pretend to teach a lesson, but just shift the win from the bad badass to the good badass. It's the kind of change you find under the couch-cushions. It's shortsighted, short-tempered, it's punk-stuff. I might do something like that but hope I'd stop short of kissing my own ass about it.

I think an apology would make sense. Care to grow up a little, Gareth?
