  1. The driver veered onto the wrong side of the road, trying to sideswipe the cyclist.

  2.  @jeanettesmith765  That's great, except for the part about church. The least religious parts of the country have the least crime. The same is true at a global level.

  4. That sounds like the setup in a joke. "How do you get a naked criminal off your back?" "I don't know, how?" "[insert punchline here]"

  5. If you're talking about corporal punishment, there's a high likelihood that these kids have already been beaten by adults. It's counterproductive, among other things. Every major medical association in the world makes that clear. Don't hit children.

  11.  @cellphone7223  I hope that you avoided misdeeds for other reasons besides fear of violence!

  14. I can think of other, more genuine reasons why slavery was so bad.

  20.  @thomasholt63  Indeed, that's a bad idea as well.

  21. Crime in the US was much worse before social media existed. The Great Crime Increase began long before hip-hop existed as well, although the Great Crime Decline didn't begin until 1990 or so.

  22.  @YaVondo  It doesn't correlate.

  24. Authentic? There was no such person in real life.

  25.  @chriscalderin6677  It doesn't work that way. There's no profit in having children.

  26.  @chriscalderin6677  Come where, Houston? What is the name of the program with this free house in one's name, free medical, free food, and a phone?

  27.  @binderfan436  Do the math. There's no profit in having children.

  28.  @lennygarrison6836  It's not the most liberal area of Texas, and besides, most of the relevant policies are made at the state level.

  29.  @southsideQGTM  The world is much better now than it was then. Lurid videos distort perceptions. People always think that crime rates are higher than they actually are. The Great Crime Decline that began in the '90s is mostly still with us.

  30.  @SuzetteRobertson  In many ways (but not the most critical way, climate change) the world has become much brighter. Crime rates began declining sharply in the '90s, and most of that decline is still with us. These videos give the wrong impression.

  31.  @PoeLemic  There's a high likelihood that these kids have already been beaten by adults. It's counterproductive, among other things. Every major medical association in the world makes that clear. Don't hit children. You're not a better man if you think that sort of thing is okay.

  32.  @magnetshakur  Don't hit children. That's probably been done to these kids already. It perpetuates a cycle of violence, and it only teaches kids to avoid getting caught, or simply to fear consequences rather than understanding right and wrong. Every major medical association in the world makes this clear.

  33.  @dtyallen9864  These perpetrators have probably been hit before this. It just perpetuates this cycle.

  36. Not this canard again. Crime rates (including juvenile delinquency) peaked arudoun1990 and then began to decline. For the most part, the Great Crime Decline is still with us.

  37. You're missing a comma. Drugs aren't kids.

  42. There is no such epidemic. The media make people think that there is, however. See "Mean World Syndrome."

  47. Yes, it's bizarre. Did you listen to the reporters? It's believed that the attacker was under the influence.

  48. It is. Lurid reporting gives the wrong impression. That's nothing new. See "Mean World Syndrome."

  49. Crime rates are worse in Bakersfield and Fresno, both of which are either GOP-dominated or are represented by Republicans at higher levels, than in L.A. or SF. New York is pretty safe these days. In contrast, Mobile (Republican mayor) does not hold up well. "Democrap?" Grow up.

  53. Not so. Juvenile delinquency was worse in prior eras.

  54.  @PazuzuM666  Sure it was. Look up, among other things, the work Kevin Drum has done on this subject.
