Our society is always looking to punish children or blame them for something.

I know fascist societies always scapegoat those with the least power to fight back, but it's always the most disturbing to me when its children and teens who don't even have a fully developed brain.

No, kids don't owe us anything. Yes, we owe them everything. No, kids are not meant to be obedient little soldiers. No, treating them like prisoners is not going to solve youth crime.

I fucking hate it. Poor kids.

    I also used to think the voting age should be lowered. I still do, but I used to, too.

    Yeah when I was 16 I thought it should be lowered to 16. Now as a grown ass man with a degree and a job, I see I was wrong. It should be lowered to 14 or possibly even 12 or 10.
