Finally anti gets something right. But I'm surprised she didn't find a racial angle...

7 year old is a bit young now days. Remember teenagers used to drive buses also. Could you imagine teenagers driving buses now.

That is just nonsense. I used walk all over my town when I was a kid.

This is horrifying to me.

The parents let their 7 year old son walk home from the store with his 10 year old brother. Something I did all the time when I was a kid.

But this time, the 7 year old darted out in traffic and was hit by a car. He died a few hours later.

The parents are now in jail, charged with involuntary manslaughter and child neglect. With a bail of $1.5 million each. They were even denied a request to attend their son's funeral.


That judge is just evil. It's tragic, yes... but an accident. The parents have suffered enough, what kind of monster thinks they should go to prison?
