[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe we should make reference to criminals as "kids", especially if we don't even know their ages. It makes light of a very serious problem. They may very well be teens, but they certainly aren't kids. [/quote]

It's amazing how posters in this thread are inventing new ways to be divisive. The Post referred to them as "youngsters". Would you prefer that?

Regardless of your feelings for a group of people about whom you know nothing at all, teens are "kids".

I thought we agreed that we shouldn't believe everything we read in the press.

I also thought we agreed that some individuals engaged in criminal activity on Monday. That we know, don't we? I don't know if the police dept. has disclosed their ages. Do you?

I'm a believer in "It takes a village", but we need to step up here and call this what it is: crime. Not a few "kids" having a fun day at the Zoo. We can't hope to fix a problem if we don't think it was much of a problem.[/quote]

Ok, so no knows the ages of any of the alleged criminals?[/quote]
