    Oh yes I remember all the times as a 15 year old I jokingly saluted neo Nazis. Classic childhood stuff, if this were 1935 Germany.

    This kid should be made to undergo some sort of community service or opportunity to learn and reflect on their actions. Not given a free pass and dismissal of racism.

        Yes they do and there should be some punishment, so they learn. Otherwise Tim will jump around on another kindergarten roof until it gives way and he falls in again, but this time someone might get hurt. Speaking from experience.

        A few hours community service will do the trick.

          Shitting your pants being taken for questioning and given an official warning… That’s not exactly getting away with it.

          And for the 50th time; they’re 15 years old, had not other issues, wasn’t known to the police and wasn’t part of the group.
