I would love to see God change the heart of this Man like He changed the heart of a man named Saul. I’m sure we all know the story. Evil Saul became Awesome Paul. I’m sure the chaplain of the Escambia county Jail murdered two people in California. But look at what God has done in that Man’s life. Think of how God can take this senseless behavior and turn it around for His glory. True enough, most of us want to see this man brought to justice, but don’t forget about all those red cents us tax payers fork out to the state of Florida and the department of Corrections in hopes of rehabilitation for men just like this. I’m praying more good comes out of this than bad.

REGARDING:
“How sad, everyone posting sound like a bunch of judgemental teens. Not defending his acts by NO MEANS, but how bout we be praying for this young man and his family. What if this was you or your child.”

If he were my son, I would be rightly ashamed of myself for my failure as a parent.

We probably ARE being judgmental, judging his actions to be shameful.
(Plus, I’m jealous of his relatively good looks, height and youth. Now you’re judging me for my professed shallowness — whether true or false.)
Being caught doing despicable things results for some reason with being despised. Whodathunk?

Feel free to pray for him. If the Lord listens to you, He doesn’t need others chiming in to respond favorably to your requests. If He doesn’t, you got other problems.

Shame is a feedback mechanism used to modify social behavior (and unsocial behavior). It may be too late for him, but many others are thinking, “I don’t want strangers mocking me for what my child does. JUNIOR! Behave!”

See? Now they’re going to demand better behavior from their young’uns, thereby saving many of them from a life of crime.

Shame — like greed — can be a good thing simply because it is a thing to avoid.

David for better outcomes

How sad, everyone posting sound like a bunch of judgemental teens. Not defending his acts by NO MEANS, but how bout we be praying for this young man and his family. What if this was you or your child. This was once a little boy who was probably a happy and good kid. No one knows what might have happened in this young mans life for him to turn out this way. No one thinks maybe something horrific or tragic led this person done the wrong path. As Jesus once said “he who is without sin, cast the first stone”. He’ll get punishment for whatever he did. Making juvenile comments on his hair, butter commercials and girlie garbage……really….how mature!! Have a heart, say a prayer and lets hope this young man can turn his life around. Look threw a mom or dads eyes. How sad and broken does he look?????

Now all joking aside, let’s get to the seriousness. Howie, all kids that are bad doesn’t mean they don’t have role models. There are some kids that just does not want to behave, some parents still believe in tough love, although if everyone isn’t supporting, it’s gonna be harder to do something with the kids, but those who don’t support but cater blames it on the good parent, the others never do wrong, but to them they’ve helped when they could. Oh they help alright, help the kids turn even worse, because the kid doesn’t see what they need to see. It could be where people kept telling the parents to lighten up & they did against their wishes. I don’t know about this boy but maybe he will get the help he needs, we never know if there’s something behind this or if they want to do good & just don’t know how to break the habit & just gonna do bad. Sometimes you have to break way clear of bad influences whether it be family or friends, if it’s not healthy or moral for you & others, you have to break free period, no contact at all.

I believe there is a bit of difference in this picture and the last one.
He must not have believed them when they said you’re going with us.
