Anyone live near Gassville or Norfork? Man (Nazi) wanted in Mass. violence dies Copied and pasted just the first paragraph from the news article: MOUNTAIN HOME, Ark. (AP) -- A small-town police officer apparently had no idea he was stopping an armed teenager who had wielded a hatchet in a Massachusetts gay bar as he pulled over a speeding car with Kentucky tags. For more click this: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/A/AR_GAY_BAR_SHOOTING_AROL-?SITE=AR MOU&SECTION=STATE&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT The suspect had a web page: Beware, the comments will make you sick to your stomach. http://www.myspace.com/jakejekyll

You mean to tell me that no one saw this whacko for what he was before this? Where are his parents? Probably drunk.

Never ask me for my opinion, because you will get it. I too ask, where are the parents. Your question "What is this world coming to?" can be answered quite easily - the end, unless parents start doing their jobs with their children. It seems that everything is "me... I want it now..., I deserve it because ...., I've had an unhappy childhood...I'm poor....I'm not pretty....I'm , I'm I'm. More and more of today's parents are abdicating their jobs and authority, depending on the schools to teach not only the three R's, but morals, sex ed, manners, respect for others, just to mention a few. Young people today expect - no demand as their right - to have it all, but they are not being taught by their parents a work ethic and how to achieve what they want. They are not taught that they must EARN the privilege (yes, privilege - it's not their RIGHT) to a new car at age 16, and that right can be taken away by Mom and Dad if the kid abuses the privilege. I am absolutely blown away by reading and hearing about tragedies like this that could have easily been avoided if only the parents weren't so absorbed in their OWN wants and desires, long enough to actually take a look at their child once in awhile and see if he's doing OK. There was a blurb in our paper the other day where an 11 year old boy had been suspended from school for bringing a loaded gun in. This was the third time he had done this in less than a year. Know what Mom said. "They're his guns. He owns them. I can't tell him he can't use them whenever he wants". Off soapbox now Sandy

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Now Grandma Jacks, you know that ain't true. Well not exactly. They didn't have guns back then, but they DID have axes and homemade hatchets.

I don't know about parents but my big gripe is that tv shows (Ally McBeal and Six feet Under, are prime examples) make children...aka known as rotten little brats...smarter than the adults. It's dangerous. Charlie

Quote: "It may well have been that our state was just between them and wherever they wanted to go," said Baxter County Prosecutor Ron Kincade. In Charleston, W.Va., state police seized Bailey's (Jennifer Rena Bailey, 33) computer and would scan it for any recent correspondence between the pair, who had lived together in 2004 and early 2005, said Sgt. C.J. Ellyson. "She would never leave her kids," he said in a phone interview from West Virginia |
