Should People Be Charged With What Could Happen?

I woke up this morning to a Fox New's segment showing a grocery store video of boy's in their twenties, smashing milk gallons in the stores aisles and slipping in the milk. A new fad called "Gallon Smashing".

My first thought was what a stupid prank. And then I heard one of the News Commentator's say, "Should they be charged? Should they be charged with what could have happened?" Those four words that can ruin a person's life.

Is today's Society made up of Psychic's? Do you have any idea of how many peoples lives have been ruined because of "What could happen". Not what did happen. Not what IS happening.
Though no-one was harmed in the making of this prank video, these boy's could face charges for what could have happened.

I'm not condoning their prank, but it seem's way to many people are being charged with what could happen.

Examples of the Psychic wannabes in today's society:
     A young boy is bullied in school, in his classroom. The Teacher does nothing. The boy takes an object and throw's it at a locked door. A door NEVER used by anybody. The victim is suspended for throwing the object, because someone "Could" have opened the door and been hit with the object. The bully get's nothing. No consequences.
     A Parent in today's society is charged with abuse and neglect. Not because they've abused or neglected their child, but because of "What they could do" in the Future.

Is this now the norm in today's society? People suffering at the hands of wannabe Psychic's? Parent's charged with "Neglect in the Future"? Losing their children because they "Could" harm them in the future?

Once upon a time, when Justice prevailed in our society, one could call the Police when they were threatened with harm. They could tell the Police the exact plan, date and time of the attack they would be subjected to. The Police did nothing. The person was told the Police could do nothing until the attack happened. No-one was questioned. No-one was arrested and the attack was indeed played out while the Police did nothing. Why has our society changed so much that people now suffer at the hands of the wannabe Psychic's? What ever happened to normalcy?

Children should not be allowed to drive the visitation bus!

Children's Rights: Children should not be allowed to drive the visitation bus!:

By Linda J. Gottlieb, L.M.F.T., L.C.S.W. ~
To any rational, mature, objective parent or professional, the reason for this declaration could be justified by merely pondering the following question: "How reassured would you feel if you were standing trial for a crime, and your jury was comprised entirely of 18-year-olds?"
