Exactly: so harass the criminals. What will be next? "Blacks are more likely to commit crimes, so they have to be off the streets by 9 pm?"

Hmm.... you need to check your wardrobe because your youth is showing. This sounds like the kinds of silly things that my kids said when they were teenagers.

The issue under discussion was a serious situation at the time. Serious situations, require serious steps.

Remington 870 pump.

Store owners have the right to protect their merchandise, if they don't criminals just take over like this.

Yep, they have every right in the world to protect themselves, their employees and their merchandise. It wouldn't take but one store security team taking out of a few of these punks and it would bring it to a screeching halt.

Come to think of it, has it happened in Texas yet?

I'm 32 and empathize more with the youth than some old bible-thumper(*) who managed to buy himself into the office of mayor. Then again, irrational solutions like his are typical of people who attempt to convince the world that some fairy up in the sky actually exists and gives a damn about the world.

(*) - Mayor Nutter's other job is "Baptist minister."
PS - this was not a "serious situation." This was a few punks who thought they were tough. Solution: put some plainclothes cops out with concealed radios and weapons. Pick the shortest and most fragile-looking ones, since they'd seem like the best targets. Then when a yout' mob tries to mess with them, send in the cavalry and bust some heads. Send a clear message to "flash mobbers" that they'll end up either hospitalized or in general jail population if they continue their games.

Nope because in Texas its too dangerous, store owners have the law on their side if they shoot a couple of them.

You really think that if a kid was shot in Texas, there wouldn't be a prolonged legal process at the least? Witness what is happening to Zimmerman in Florida, which is another "defense friendly" state.
