some punk just shot a hole through my plate glass window |
|
About an hour ago. I've been having trouble with kids all summer because I don't sell condoms to minors (they have to be with a parent/gaurdian to be in the store).
So this kid is outside flipping me the bird. I flip him back then stop paying attention. I had a customer in the back so I couldn't really leave the register. I heard a bang on the window and got up with the camera to take their picture -- they were speeding away on their bikes.
About 5 of 'em in total. Little punks like 12-16yolds.
God I am so mad. I can't handle a monetary hit like this. The cop said that 20 windows were shot out last night.
I went driving around and saw the one kid about 6 blocks away, but he saw me and went riding off between the houses. I'm pretty sure he lives there. Adults sitting on their front porch, drinking. But it is next to an ice cream shop and I'm sure they would say he doesn't live there.
Damn white trash. I hate this neighborhood.

3. It is not against the law to sell condoms |
|
But since I have a back room full of porn which is against the law to sell to minors, I don't let them in the store without a parent/gaurian.
They can go to the convenience store and buy them.

6. I'm sure the parents are no better. |
|
There is so much crack around here. These kids think they are gansters.
I know they will get what's coming to them in the end. Karma's a terrible thing.

4. I don't know if this would cause trouble in the neighborhood |
|
But you may want to check out if Planned Parenthood still gives out free condoms for folks under 18 -then post it in your window.
It shouldn't effect your sales since you can't sell to that age group anyway-and you would be sharing some important info with these kids.

5. I don't know if you saw my thread or not |
|
But it sounds like something I would have done about 15 years ago. I'm betting the kid will grow to hate himself for doing that if he ever develops a conscience. I know that isn't any satisfaction to you now. I'd want to wring the little fuck's neck, too.

9. Yeah I posted to your thread. |
|
I guess I'm still working off some of that karma I brought on myself. I was a little hellion from 12-15.

The schools probably recognize the kids.
