Are you kidding? he confirms what I said. Teens are often out of control.

Well now that's Ib, Ali and I who understand Ib's statement and just Merc who doesn't get it. Any more voters?

...Oh wait -Merc is a USC in the US. We forgot to allow for the sarcasm/humour bypass.....

When read without this comprehension tool, he's right. It's worrying that he isn't the only one with this disability. Question is, should we allow him a special parking pass?

Yes.

And I just can't trust the opinion of teens with the worldly experience of zero years as an adult having never experienced any degree of adult responsibility. Sorry about that.

You're welcome Ibram. It's always a bitch when someone misquotes others.

Well the cops here gave them a fair go. There was no battering or anything like that. They just cruised around telling them to move along. Basically dispersing the crowd as much as possible. The ones who refused to go or were abusive towards them were the ones that were arrested. Probably half a dozen or so suffered this fate.

I think they did a good job or sorting it out.

Good judgement can come from age and common sense. You are only seeing the kids without the second Merc. You would be suprised how mature most teens can actually be, you are just not hearing about them.

I am sure they are out there. Just not in any large numbers.
