Welcome friends!
Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on with kids in UK? I commented a while ago on a story about a pair of UK boys aged fifteen and eighteen who tried to beat a homeless man to death with a table leg and got caught bragging to their little friends about it. (See my post Crime and Punishment, or Not from January 23, 2014.) Well, I guess it wasn’t just the bragging that gave them away. It was the blood spatter as well. Always a dead give away. Got to watch the spatter kids! I thought it was pretty damned weird at the time. We have violent crime in the USA, don’t get me wrong. We’ve got plenty of that. But monster kids I think are relatively rare here. Most of our violent criminals were at least somewhat normal as kids and only became truly rotten to the core as young adults. And usually our violent crime involves things like money, drugs, gangs, etc. The sort of stuff denizens of the low life get excited about all around the world. We have isolated serial murderers and so on but it’s kind of weird for two kids to get together and bash in the brains of a random stranger for kicks and giggles. But no big deal. I presumed the story was a one off. The sort of thing that might have happened anywhere. A pair of sadistic little nutlings found each other and did what came naturally. Freaks of nature. But alas that does not appear to be the case. (Reader alert: ugliness ahead!) No, I just read another horrifying story this time about two young UK girls aged thirteen and fourteen who tied a mentally challenged woman to a chair and slowly beat her to death by among things stamping on her face, throwing a television at her, throwing a printer at her, and hitting her in the face with a table multiple times. They took a little break from their torture session to take selfies of themselves with the dying woman in the background with “splits in her head” bleeding profusely. WTH? Yes, I’m talking about pure unadulterated evil. Spawn.
At first I thought once again no big deal this could have happened anywhere blah blah blah... Sorry but only selected archived (previous year) posts are currently available full text on this website.

If you find my timeless jewels of wisdom amusing or perhaps even amusingly irritating throw me a bone now and then. Thank you my friends!
