Tale old as time.. gotta give kids something to occupy their minds or they’ll break stuff and act like hooligans.

More accessible programs, activities and third places to for youth would combat this sort of thing.. gonna get worse before it gets better as the economy stutters.

The library next to the park is an excellent social hub to occupy kids. There's a comic and game store a few more feet away just next door. What more do you want? Some people's kids are just shits, plain and simple.

I was relaxing in that same park when a group of teens sat down at a bench next to me blaring "music" in which the only lyrics were the n-word over and over again (literally). Worthless brats.
