    Remember when you were a kid and parents taught you a few things specifically meant to protect you?

    things like:

    -Respect authority
    -Don't play with fire
    -Don't play in traffic... etc etc

    These kids 'play with fire' everyday (again - the cat mouse games are apparently common-place) - sooner or later it's gonna go bad... ... which brings me back to that whole 'discipline' thing that occurs when you're a child...

    ... or are these just things 'white' people teach their children?

    • You are making excuses for the agent shooting an unarmed kid. Is this fucking bizarro world?DrBombay
    • and you're forgetting all the violence down there... and the fact that he doesn't have a clue of the intentions of those...PonyBoy
    • ... 'toying' with him (the agent) while he's supposed to be keeping his eyes open for criminal shitPonyBoy
    • But it's "commonplace" though, right?DrBombay
    • so is MURDER you fucking toolPonyBoy
    • but wait... the agent 'murdered' the boy according to you...PonyBoy
    • we're not going to get anywhere... I'm too white and I just don't get itPonyBoy
    • Did the agent fuck up or not in your estimation?DrBombay
    • Should he do time for killing an unarmed kid?DrBombay
    • Or should he be placed back on the border tomorrow?DrBombay
    • both sides 'fucked up'...
      ... no - he shouldn't be charged - it's a shitty outcome to a stupid prank
      PonyBoy
    • but he shouldn't be charged because he has no clue (regardless of home 'common place') what the intentions ofPonyBoy
    • the kids werePonyBoy
    • however... he should be removed from the jobPonyBoy
    • He should do time for manslaughter at least.DrBombay
    • tell you what - I want to know more info... ... if the man's intentions were in fact to kill just to kill... etc etc... throw the bookPonyBoy
    • at him.PonyBoy
    • right now - the situation is presented as a prank that was misread due to the normalcy of violence on the borderPonyBoy
    • If you are shooting guns at humans, what is your intent? To give them a Snickers bar?DrBombay
    • Manslaughter is what they charge people with when they kill someone even if unintentionally.DrBombay
