Robber tries to rob a store, gets shot. Tells cop that "they're supposed to just hand over the money, not try to stop anyone."

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You have a good point. No matter what background you have, you and you alone are in charge of the choices you make. But I said "likely." Lacking information on the subject, I can't help but wonder what percentage of our prison populations come from a good background verses otherwise.Abraham wrote:I blame the armed robber for his criminality, not the parents with a caveat: Perhaps, they're a criminal family...
I do know many times when teenagers turn to crime the parents are often well adjusted, well off, good people who are not to blame for their child's rotten behavior.
How many times have you known a family and all the siblings are good with the one exception?
I've known a number.

So true. I've known a few families the same. One family had 1) and Air Force PJ, 2) lawyer/teacher, 3) oil and gas business manager and 4) one strung out on drugs and alcohol who they tried to "save" with basically all their life savings.Abraham wrote:I blame the armed robber for his criminality, not the parents with a caveat: Perhaps, they're a criminal family...
