Some people sure get "bold" about where and what they write.

Maybe I'm old...but have todays youth lost all control of their senses...or just the visible parts....

 

I could think of a couple other sentences...other than probation....

 

Maybe I should lose some of my controls (what ones are left) when I find someone with a can of paint out and about... :angry:

 

Do we have to deal with teenagers for the rest of our lives...why won't they just go away :blink:

Rusty, many times I get to thinking the same as you but when I take a step back to look at the big picture I put the blame (poor word choice) on our larger population. The percentage of dummies (a polite word choice) is probably the same as before (and to be optimistic, maybe even a little less) but the overall number has increased with skyrocketing population.

 

My initial thoughts on the sentence was the same as yours, but I was not the judge with a real person standing in front of me, nor have I read the investigation reports on her. I'm going to trust the judge used his wisdom but I'm going to hope her community service involves really getting her hands and clothes dirty.

 

I know a place in Yosemite she can go clean up.

Here's one way to deal with the issue...  [link removed]. if you catch them, get photos and forward them on to appropriate law enforcement if it warrants that action.

Oops! Mr. 3Pin just pointed out that discussions are members only, and even though I am an administrator, I can't change the setting.

A friend of mine used to preach what he called "Retro-Active Birth Control." At the time I thought it a bit extreme and I still do, but it has its appealing moments.....

Mr. Sage, you get me all excited, I click, and read this -

"This group discussion is for members only."

I'll sit back down on the group w bench.

Well rats! Since I'm an administrator of the group, let's see if I can fix that!

 

Nope, I can't, so here's a description of what the thread is about.

 

The group is for the photographers that frequent Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge.   To keep from losing privileges due to knuckleheads that can't follow rules, we have a thread where people can post photos of violations of the refuge rules.   Usually, it's just someone out of their auto during times that it isn't allowed, but sometimes it is a serious violation.  For example, idiots throwing rocks at coot chicks, or people harassing owlets.   The serious violations are sent in to Fish and Wildlife law enforcement.
