This is a brilliant idea. ‘Teens Arrested’
After reading a story about a recent murder, the idea occurred to me, why not just Google “teens arrested”?
I often mention that the news media loves to identify legal adults, aged 18 and 19 years of age, as teenagers, even though it doesn't really convey the correct information. And even when the teens are 14 or 15 years of age, the media hate to give the whole story.
So much high-spirited adolescent hijinks! So many mischievous young scamps! Stealing cars, stealing guns, shootings, beatings, armed robberies — typical fun for American teens! With few exceptions, the news media never identify these fun-loving youngsters by name, but when they do . . . Well, it’s ain’t Amish kids, OK?
