Boy, 11, Plays Basketball in Own Yard as He Awaits Delayed Parents. Cops Take Him & Brother Away for a Month...(link) - Walt_Disney Jun 10, 08:08 42
- How about instead of calling the cops the neighbor could have just asked the kid if he wanted to wait inside their place until the parents got home. - Krusty Jun 10, 08:49 1
  - ... They would have stolen all our things! - Neighbors Jun 10, 08:50
- Mind your own fucking business...if the kid is not out running the neighborhood, no call should have ever been made. Ever. -- nm - Jim Jun 10, 08:23 28
  - not to mention, I'd have asked the kid.."are your parents coming home soon? and are you ok?" If he said yes, I go back to what I'm doing. - Jim Jun 10, 08:24 27
    - maybe they were worried he was mentally challenged or something. Who plays basketball in the rain? -- nm - decline Jun 10, 08:26 26
      - as long as it is nice out. Rain never stopped me from playing. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 10, 08:48
      - Any kid with a hoop, a ball and a desire to be outside playing. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 10, 08:39 1
        
        or one locked out of his house on a rainy afternoon apparently -- nm - decline Jun 10, 08:43
      - I did all the time and I was in a park, not my backyard. Rain isn't a deterrent to playing outside. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 08:32 19
        
        I rest my case -- nm - decline Jun 10, 08:33 18
        
        I'm constantly amazed that there are people who don't love playing in the rain. -- nm - David Jun 10, 08:47 14
        
        Getting wet on purpose for no reason is dumb. -- nm - Shaun Jun 10, 08:50 13
        
        To have fun! It's fun to play outside and in the rain it can be more fun. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 08:52 8
        
        One of the happiest moments of my life was walking down the streets of Paris during a rainstorm. - David Jun 10, 08:55 1
        
        Nice! Share it if you can find it. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 09:00
        
        Football in the rain is fun, especially on a muddy field. -- nm - Shaun Jun 10, 08:52 1
        
        Yes! Difficult but lots of fun. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 08:54
        
        Not as much alone, though. -- nm - Spawn Jun 10, 08:52 3
        
        Yeah, that just looks sad. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 08:53 2
        
        which is why we called the police! -- nm - crazy redneck neighbor Jun 10, 08:54 1
        
        Heh. :-) People need to mind their own business unless they see real danger. A kid shooting hoops in the rain isn't one. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 08:55
        
        You don't swim? -- nm - David Jun 10, 08:51 1

        Many people disliked the basketball court we had due to noise as well as the bright lights we had around it. -- nm - Spawn Jun 10, 08:30
- the prosecuters are wrong, the cops were wrong, the anonymous caller was wrong and the parents were wrong for not giving their kid a key to the house - decline Jun 10, 08:14 10
  - I was wondering about the key thing. Do you think they are worried he'll ditch school and have people over while they are at work? Nm - ralph wiggum Jun 10, 08:16 9
    - He's an 11 year old boy...maybe they're worried he'll lose the key, drop it or something. - Jim Jun 10, 08:25 7
      - That being said - they could have put a key in the well stocked shed. -- nm - Jim Jun 10, 08:26 6
        
        *ding* -- nm - Spawn Jun 10, 08:29 5
        
        the key that was hidden in our backyard when we were kids is *still there in the exact same place.* -- nm - Andie Jun 10, 08:31 4

        BTW, I think you forgot to put it back last week. -- nm - Spawn Jun 10, 08:38
        
        heh -- nm - Andie Jun 10, 08:38
        
        I know! -- nm - Spawn Jun 10, 08:31
    - at 11, I'm sure they are worried about him having drug and alcohol fueled orgies - decline Jun 10, 08:17
