n Chicago if you see a kid that looks like he is ten years old trying to break into a vending machine and you try to stop him or tell him not to do it, he will just shoot you. And not even think about it. That is the scary part. It wont bother him the slightest bit.

Because it shifts the blame?
Guns can't be the blame, it has to be this generation!
Why? Shootings happened before as well.
Truth is a strong word, that means beyond shadow of a doubt.

Ya but what is the year range, from when to when.
Because they had a drop of crime as well, so that is why I am asking.
This generation is no different then the previous ones, it is just the previous one saying it was better so it must be that this new one is at fault.
The person to blame in all of this is the kid that pulled the trigger, plain and simple.

I am sure you would be able to back this up, that we just have 10 year olds running around murdering people.

I seriously believe that the problem with people doing these things is the massive increase in drugs used to treat mental disorders and being used on kids with developing brains.
That is why we don't pay attention to those numbers any more. Its a waste of time.

Why can't you just tell me where the 40% number comes from?
What was the before, what was the after?

Ok.... so we don't pay attention to the drops but on the raises?
