Grow old, be mature

No time to be young, no time to play. Being young will get you arrested and locked up.

US police pursue girl over rock

An 11-year-old girl who threw a rock at a group of boys pelting her with water balloons is being prosecuted on serious assault charges in California. Maribel Cuevas was arrested in April in a police operation which involved three police cars and a helicopter. She has since spent five days in detention, in which she was granted one 30 minute visit by her parents, and has spent a month under house arrest.


What respect does Maribel have for society and authority now? What has been achieved?

Ugh. Making an example of an eleven-year-old is pretty ridiculous.

I wanted to let you know that I've linked to you. I've been enjoying your blog.
