I work in a public library that serves a similar niche. These kids are terrors so their parents lock them out of their house until they get home from work and the library is the only place they can go. They're mostly burnouts so they hate it here and let us know it on a regular basis. We remove them when we have to (getting the police involved when necessary), but they're back in a couple weeks with the same chip on their shoulder. Politically we can't just tell the community "your rotten kids aren't welcome here anymore" so it's a problem we'll perpetually have to deal with. It kind of goes in cycles, fortunately. When all the kids in one bad group either get arrested, sent to juvie, get pregant, or run away we might have a few months of relative quiet before the younger kids grow up and repeat the cycle.

The library I used to work at had a similar problem. We had an off duty cop everyday basically just watches the kids til they all left.

And the OTHER library I worked at, whenever we called the cops it would be real quiet for a couple weeks. And as you said, we get one group of kids under control, then the younger ones come in and wreak havoc.

We just smoked dope and dealt drugs at the Taco Bueno across the street from my high school. And played video games, when every place still had arcade cabinets in them.

Besada probably got tyrannosaurs tacos and shit, that old fogey

That happens everywhere. Only dumbasses fought in school.

Weed and videogames?

 

[hodayathink]

Why can't they still punish the kids for fighting? Just because it is outside doesn't mean the school's hands are tied does it?

Not on school grounds + after school hours = outside their jurisdiction.

Now you listen to me. I want selling reopened right now! Get those workers back in here! Turn those machines back on! TURN THOSE MACHINES BACK ON!

I asked this in another thread weeks back and got no answer, but what is the meaning of this picture?

Is there a mirror video yet?

There used to be a pizza joint in my hometown called Al's Diner or something like that. One day, local highschool kids started fighting in his store. Al came around the counter, beat them both, and went back to making pizza.

Moral of the story: hire a bitter, thrice divorced, overweight mid 40's man who doesn't give a fuck.

This happens a lot in Baltimore. There's a strip of stores in a Baltimore suburb that do this in the afternoons. I was told it was due to their proximity to a Skateland lol. It happens in Essex too; Friend of mine had a door-to-door job selling ATMs to be businsses. He said a few places wouldn't let anybody in the afternoon.

josh freeman really likes taco bell

 

[Who]

Haha sounds like the Burger King and Steak and Shake near the movie theatre growing up in my hometown. There would ALWAYS be fights, group fights even.

God bless the workers that had to go through that.

Sure there is. Minors? You can take their parents to court and then lock them up.

You're joking right?

This is exactly what my HS pizza shop was like. There must of have been like 5 fights total at it during my 4 years of HS. Kids used to fight in parks instead.

 

[Toparaman]

Serious question, is this a recent thing, or have kids/teenagers always been such little shits?

They used to be worse, if you look at youth crime statistics. It peaked in the '90s, and now it's the lowest it has been since the '60s.

You were a former drug dealer? :O

 

[Bubbavelli]

We're not drug dealers, we're fundraisers

 

[Timedog]

We should make a thread where people on GAF admit to having been drug dealers.

 

[ponpo]

What was the video on the article? If you look up Antioch Taco Bell on youtube it's a bunch of fight videos so I'm assuming that?
