HMMM where to start.

At the age of 17 he can own property. Land, car, boat. Makes no difference. For that matter in the state of Texas you can own property at any age. So in that, Youre wrong.

Ive always disagreed with the fact that you can join the Army with parental permission at the age of 17, which in turn leads to the possibility that you can fight and die for your country but you arent responsible enough to drink, smoke, or vote. How rediculous is that?
The Surgeon General has determined that smoking is hazardous to your health. Arent bullets and hand grenades dangerous as well???

I, on the other hand, must fall into the hipocrate category because I believe that most people that are over the age of 4 know the difference between right and wrong. 17 or 15 are a far cry from 4. They know they arent supposed to murder people and yet want to hide behind the fact that they arent of "legal" age. They refuse to accept responsibilities for their actions. THATS a load of crap. If an 11 year grabs a gun and goes school and kills 15 kids because they made fun of his buck teeth, that kid should be charged as an adult. It took MALICE and FORETHOUGHT. He knew exactly what he was doing when he did it. Many of the kids that perpetrate crimes like that never feel any remorse whatsoever. Yes they apologise to save their ass. The fact is when the cameras go off and they are back in their cell, they laugh and brag about it. And they are held in high regard by other kids in jail.

How many cop killers are on death row??? how many get a hard time while they are awaiting death??? VERY FEW>>>> they are HONORED by the other prisoners. "You killed a cop??? Yous cool wit me man [img]smile.gif[/img] "

As Berreta used to say "Dont do the crime if ya cant do the time." In this case its a shortened life sentence.
