Wake up and look all around you! You want a brand new cheap house? Well, you better be able to accept the kind of element this draws for neighbors.

Ummm... wrote on Nov 19, 2007 4:37 AM:What in the world is an adult and 3 juveniles doing at the park 9:23pm? Granted this type of thing should not happen but it does and if you are a transplant from Los Angeles/San Diego/The "OC" (yep, even the OC) area you would know better than to frequent a park after dark its common sense....

how sad.... wrote on Nov 19, 2007 2:19 PM:Why are the victims the ones at fault here? They were the VICTIMS not the criminals. So what if it was late at night. People should be able to go out as late as they feel. Just be careful about it.

The Wizard of Oz wrote on Nov 19, 2007 2:49 PM:Right, they're not the criminals as you so put it, but come on, you ever heard of COMMOM SENSE? If you KNOW the stove is hot, but go touch it and burn yourself anyway....COMMON SENSE... You stated "People should be able to go out as late as they feel." Well guess what, the criminals enjoy the cover of darkness to ply their trade...Oh yeah, there's that COMMON SENSE thing again.

Parent don't get it wrote on Nov 19, 2007 3:05 PM:You know if parents would drug test their kids from the time they are 12 years old till out of their home, crime would go down considerably. However most parents don't want to believe that their kids are doing drugs, and are scared of their own kids.

Get What You Pay For wrote on Nov 19, 2007 9:54 PM:Hey, Ummmmm, you ask what an adult and 3 juveniles are doing out at 9:30pm? The Wizard of Oz answered your question best. These folks have no structure at home because what parents they have aren't paying attention to the whereabouts of their gangster/banger offspring. Single mothers are trying to raise their rug rats on the lousy pay of their unskilled work while their fathers are unemployed because they're away in prison, doing 25-to-life for felonly murder.
