THANKYOU!

Honestly, Spyglass, stay away from my children. I don't need you deciding whether they are old enough to drink alcohol.

Spoken with all the ignorance of someone who has no idea what they are talking about. The law is the law. We don't get to choose which one we think are real laws and disregard the others. You say that it's ok to serve and die for your country but not drink. Obviously you or no one in your family has earned the honor of serving this country. If you did, you would know that it is perfectly legal to drink beer or wine in any U.S. military installation as a member of any branch of service at the age of 18. Yes, you can die for your country at 18 and you can also have a beer too. I think these fine men and women deserve the exception not the children of Fayette county. As stated by jevank, I too hope you and your thoughts never cross paths with my children.

And obviously you and I disagree. It's not the end of the world. Reasonable folks can disagree.

As to why you think I'm advocating yours ( or anyone else's children for that matter) should drink alcohol, I'm perplexed. I never implied that should be the case.

I have kids at my home all the time, cookouts, firepit fires etc....believe me, we agree more than we disagree on this.

I'm talking about ADULTS.

they aren't old enough. I was referring to adults,persons of legal age. I think they are old enough to make that decision, especially when they are out in public on their own.

In your house or mine, the house rules dominate, no doubt. That said, the parents providing the booze are certifiable nuts and should and will face charges.

where did it say the parents supplied the booze, i'd like to know!

But a little bird told me that very well may be what happened...at least some of it.

you weren't even there...you know nothing...i know for a FACT the parents did not supply the alcohol..rumors rumors...don't believe everything you hear.

The drinking age is 21 so it's against the law in this country for drinking "booze" under 21. It's agianst the law to buy it, provide, consume it, and/or allow it for under age kids!

If the same kids were driving under the influence or excessively speeding and killed someone they they would be punished for breaking the law...this is not different.

I disagree with the law. But I do not advocate breaking it.

When is the hanging? This cannot stand.

I have no clue what your comments about someone getting killed have to do with the price of tea in China.

...with this archaic standard/law. Given that if parents wish to host such events they merely need to keep the numbers within their span of control. Otherwise, they pay the piper.

Now, if kids are being responsible and noise levels are reasonable other than the Ms Cratchett types, who the hell cares?

Your an iddiot. Dont even comment on crap you dont even know about.
Whats the point of trying to get the kids in trouble at school??? to learn a lesson?? there are no lessons learned jus futures ruined. And if u think ur kid is so damn good, he or she was probly at that party! the parents did it so it was safe place for teens to do what teens do. and iddiots like you call the cops and get all of them in trouble. u should be ashamed.

The irony of calling someone an idiot, and misspelling idiot. Ya gotta love it. My kid is so damn good, and I'm 100% percent sure she wasn't at that party.

I yam what I yam....Popeye

Im sure ur kid sucks then.

Just another keyboard commando, its so easy to act tough on the internet, but so much harder to do it in person. You seem like a very "tough" kind of guy.....at least on the computer.

I yam what I yam....Popeye

Didn't you also enjoy the misuse of "your" and "you're". This cup runneth over with intelligent statements today.

quoted,"Your an iddiot". This works on so many levels. Thank you. I shudder to think that you are a product of a Fayette County School.

I think i know how 2 spell it. And the only thing you people look at is spelling... i mean come onn. and yes i spelled on wrong

"And the only thing you people look at is spelling..".

Wrong! I admit that I did look at the spelling; but not exclusively. I also saw the improper capitalization of words, improper construction of contractions, weird tense usage, incomplete sentence structures and faulty punctuation.

You say that you think you know how to spell. Trust me, you do not. I'm hoping that you are still in elementary school because you appear functionally illiterate. Trust me on that too. You need to get to work studying. Otherwise, even if you manage to graduate, your job prospects are going to be limited to carrying a stick with a nail in the end of it up and down the ditches stabbing discarded hamburger wrappers which have words printed on them that you will have to struggle to read.

. . . texting. Please Little Man - heed Jeff's words.

Is that he has not been taking advantage of our public government schools and therefore may not have learned that a liberal like myself should be assumed to be an expert on deciding what is good for him.

My fear is that this youngster is so locked into technology, that he has no basic communication skills! Your advice is good - liberal/conservative/ whatever - our kids need to value basic education.
Oh well - back to TV.

This time they were actually caught and some got arrested so if there was any property damage their parents will have to pay for it.

This isn't the first time and it won't be the last. As you can see from many of the posts here many people think this type of behavior is acceptable. Since people find underage drinking and assaulting a cop(if that is what happened) acceptable or normal behavior we will get more of the same. This behavior wouldn't happen if it was not encouraged by the "parents".

Is assaulting a police officer still a felony?

Dont send ur kid then. ur just as much as fault so dont go blameing anyone.

On July 17, 1984, President Reagan signed into law the Uniform Drinking Age Act mandating all states to adopt 21 as the legal drinking age within five years. By 1988, all states had set 21 as the minimum drinking age, which is where it should remain.

See, Brief History of the Drinking Age

Private property does not matter, parent consent does not matter, it's against the law!

Citizens Arrest!!

and take a chance that one of those kids would beat us up or destroy more of our property? (the same kids that hit police officers) No thank you, our neighbors prefer to call 911 and have the police handle the unruly behavior, property damage etc. I agree that many of the kids at the party are normally good kids and probably guilty by association, but there were many kids that needed the police to control their bahavior.

Yo retard no cop was beat up. The kids ran into the house to avoid getting in trouble. does it say anywhere a cop was beat up?? no so quit makeing accuzations

Some folks have ZERO sense of sarcasm/humor.

Nip it...nip it...nip it!
