A young couple was robbed leaving the local movie theater last night. An 18 year old girl heckled the police officers and was bit by a K9, whose job it is to protect the police officers. A second girl was arrested for repeated heckling and refusal to leave the area. The worst part of all of this, as quoted from the St. Mary’s Today: Online Edition, “Both juveniles were charged with robbery, theft and 2nd degree assault and released to their parents.” RELEASED TO THEIR PARENTS!! THEY VIOLENTLY ROBBED TWO INNOCENT PEOPLE AND DID NOT SPEND AN HOUR IN JAIL! That is absolute bullcrap. Period.
There is a problem in today’s society and it is this: our judicial system. Granted, we have come a looooong way from the all-white male juries and corruptly-elected judges. But criminals, convicts, addicts, and scumbags are constantly imprisoned and released like it was there job! There is no personal accountability anymore. That flew out of the window when a woman sued McDonald’s for serving her hot coffee at too high of a temperature.
In light of recent news, I hereby refuse to financially support both the Loews theater in Lexington Park and the city of Waldorf. I will not so much as buy a 12-ounce fountain soda from the WaWa. I refuse to support a place that so neglegently takes care of its citizens.
