    Yeah, I remember when I was 7 I’d explore everywhere around my house for at least a few miles. There was a convenience store 2 miles out where I’d buy candy any time I’d scrounged up a few dollars of change.

    What happened was terrible, but it was an accident nevertheless. Nobody should have to serve time, especially not the grieving parents.

      Same, having the freedom to ride my bike wherever I could and meet and play with other kids was crucial to my social and personal development.

      It’s fucking insane that anyone thought to charge them, let alone actually follow through with it. Multiple people have to have agreed for this to be reality. Another shit stain on humanity
