Trying to Make Sense of It All...

Remember When: Judge Reinhold was a name in hollywood?
Remember When: Stephen King move adaptations were actually scary?

Okay, the Michael Jackson thing. I think it's a setup, but, he did shoot himself in the foot last year on that FOX special. A grown ass man shouldn't be letting any child sleep in his bed, much less a young boy...who ain't even his. Furthermore, if Michael were to be convicted, which I doubt seriously (can you say "payoff" boys and girls?), the parents should be tried for negligence and endangering the child. If you knew the guy down the street was an alleged pedophile, would you let your child near them...much less stay over their house alone?! Come on now, the parents should be charged if Michael is proven innocent or guilty, because their irresponsible behavior was the catalyst to all this. Dude, he hung his own child off a balcony, what he gon' do to yours asshole?!
In other events, my high school alma mater, Suitland High School is officially wilding out. There have been allegations of constant fighting and rapes...yes rapes...since last Friday. What is a major factor in this problem...? Overcrowding, man. When I graduated in 1995, the school was swelling to 2,000 students. While I was there, the incoming freshman classes gained about 100 more knuckleheaded teenagers every year. So, I've been gone since '95, it's now 2003, which puts the school population at roughly 2,800 students. All those hormones, in a shitty educational system that's failing...what can folks expect? The other day, there were 15 fights and most of the student body decided to up and leave over an hour before school was over with. They showed students hopping the fence to cut school while a Prince Georges County police officer was ten feet away; that dude had his face on camera too, his superior is probably gon' light his ass up! We need more money, more educators, and more resources to catch these kids up. Leave it up to politicians and these youngyin' gon' fall by the wayside, man.
