Summer is here, and the media, obfuscating as usual, describes the latest round of disorderly issues in Blue State Cities to be created by"Teens" just happening to be out and about:
The New York Post: ‘Teen takeover’ descends into wild brawl inside DC Chipotle — as feds promise to charge ignorant parents
The Detroit News: Teen takeover in Detroit results in brawls, shooting. Sheffield responds
The choice of words by the media is typical in that it is technically accurate yet does not nearly accurately describe the perpetrators of the disorder. These deliberate word choices are interesting as an apt demonstration in how the media chooses to obfuscate the facts.
Apparently, Detroit Mayor Sheffield's response to the "teen takeover" is to re-establish midnight basketball and other activities to give the "Teens" something to do other than blocking the streets, starting brawls, and assaulting people - instead of severely cracking down on the behavior and heavily prosecuting the miscreants to deter such behavior. That should work just swimmingly.

It would seem that even leftists would have learned by now that allowing misbehavior without consequences will only result in more misbehavior. I guess that they really would rather use it to somehow blame conservatives.
Pigpen51: The left has learned nothing and forgotten nothing when it comes to letting their constituent ferals wander and commit crimes.
