if that were my 17 year old son, i think a certain 17 year old son's butt would be out on the street.

If that was my son he'd get a job immediately and start paying it back. The alternative would be my reporting him to the cops. He's a goofy looking little bastard too, which makes it all the worse.

I think the parents are partly to blame for this. It seems as if the kid got little or no discipline at all. If it was my kid I would make him pay it back and if he didn't kick his butt out on the street. After he realizes how hard it is to live and make money, then we would see how things are.

lol MC's gonna sue his ass hahaha...

I would let the little retard learn that you can't get away with being a moron in this world.

And then I would kick him out of the house when he turned 18 and told him to go learn how tough the world was for real.

..he took his father's credit card while he was out jogging ... and went on a]four-day spending spree

Something smells.

The father reported it stolen, yet the kid was able to spend on it for four days.

Yeah come to think of it...that makes no sense.

First off he looks quite flamboyant in all the pictures, i would definitely file charges and have someone "butter his bread".

Second of all, why the hell do all news papers make a hearo out of him? If that was my sun, i'd bitchslap his ass around and then have him prosecuted for theft. With the atitude thats he's got "its my body i do what i want and i aint sorry", he should spend 6 months in a cell too see if it was worth it.

lol public school in the bad section of town for him. This private education crap is obviously not teaching him that you get the crap beaten out of you in the real world for pulling that kinda crap.

Much less illegal than beating your own son lol. Send him to public school dressed like that!

I kinda knew a guy that did something like this about 1.5 years ago
I had a couple of classes with the guy and then I never saw him, about a year later(apparently he went sideways)
He shows up at a local pub driving a brand New 300z.
Has all this cash puts the almost the entire bar's drinks all nite on his tab, He does this four nite's in a row (at least 25-50 people each nite were drinking on this tab). The last nite he does it the card is declined and he ends up getting the crap kicked outta him by some rugby players, I kinda felt bad for him he obviously was having some sort of psychological breakdown. (BTW I could tell something was not right and told the guy I would pay for my own drinks)

It turns out that he had stolen his Dad's 300z and Credit Cards; and drove all the way from California to MO and then spent Crazy money.

Pretty wild, I never found out how much he spent but, it must have been a ton.

LOL!! Dude, that's evil :D :evil:

If he survived that, I'd send him away to a nice, harsh college with just enough $$ for tuition. Let him earn the rest if he wants a roof over his head.
