Thug-

A vicious criminal or ruffian. A tough or violent man. A member of an organization of robbers and assassins in India.

Don’t think this had anything to do with anybody being a Thug. And it’s certainly not a racist comment. Before long, everything we say can be said to be racist by someone. It’s getting ridiculous.

REGARDING:
“The Comment Thug To Me Is Offensive Especially For Us Blacks I’m Not Making A Racial Comment But It Makes Me Feel Very Uncomfortable To Read”

Actually, that IS a racial comment. You admit you are reacting as a black person when you say you are offended as a black person by folks calling people “thugs” who commit criminal acts. You are seeing it in racial terms and offended that someone said something bad about a criminal because that criminal is black.

Per Encarta:
Thug: brutal person: somebody, especially a criminal, who is brutal and violent

Technically, calling them “thugs” may not be accurate since they didn’t commit brutal acts but they WERE violent acts, vandalizing a place of learning and thereby stealing from all the children who would have benefited by use of what we as taxpayers bought for them. If you identified with the children, you would be offended by the actions. Instead, you identified with the offenders simply because of their race.

That IS racial.

IHonestly Dont Think The Parents Should Be Held Accountable For Their Actions If Any Of Your Kids Did This You Guys Wouldnt Want To Be Ashamed Akind Blamed No It Was There Actions And Please Dont Say That Your Kids Have Manners Because These Days Kids Would Do Anything . No One Really Nows Their Kids Even If Yu Raised Them And Some Of These Comments Are Very Judgemental
And I Disapprove No One Knows Wht Anyone Struggle Is Most Of Yall Should Care Because Everyone Is Not Perfect In Fact No One Can Juge But Him Above & The Comment Thug To Me Is Offensive Especially For Us Blacks Im Not Making A Racial Comment But It Makes Me Feeel Very Uncomfortable To Read . But All Im Saying Id Only People That Should Be Held Accountable Are The Kids Not The Parents

I think their parents should help replace all the items stolen from the school, AND they should help pay for all the repairs. The parents should have been aware of where their children were at 9:00 at night. They are responsible for their children until they are of age!! Don’t get me wrong, the children should pay for their crimes. They should be put to work also, even if they are incarcerated. There are plenty of jobs even an 11 year old can do. Make them work so that they’ll know how it is to work and pay for things. I don’t believe in putting someone in jail and letting them sit there. They should have to work for their keep as well as repay for what they destroyed!! Hurray for the sheriff’s department!! AND the two adults should be put to work doing hard labor, digging ditches, clearing land, etc. Not sitting on their behinds in jail, getting 3 meals a day, watching TV or playing games. Make them pay for what they did!! not get a vacation to sit and do nothing, which the tax payers are paying for!!
