I had a more checkered pass too. (Well that's what my sisters say. I say "Colorful.") But that's when I was a teenager/young adult. Once jail turned into prison? Then I stopped alot of the foolishness. I've done ok sence. But me and my one sister were little *****. Far worse than either of our kids dared. I grew up to be an IT security analyst. She is a crime analyst for the same Brooklyn Park city where much of the Minnesota mayhem is occurring. Our kids couldn't get away with nothing. Surprising how what went around? Comes around? Just hopefully in a more positive light? In my case? Luckily true. Lost many of friends who I grew up with to the streets of bad choices.
