Well in fairness there’s not shit to do in Nebraska
The teen driver and the 11-year-old boy were taken into custody without further incident and placed in protective custody, the agency said. Troopers searched the vehicle and located a firearm and a small amount of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, according to the news release. >

Damn, when I was 13 the most exciting thing that happened to me was finally beating the elite four. Everything is gonna feel pretty downhill after this. >

We were attempting to get 100% completion for Ocarina of Time… >

Super Mario World for me at 13 with the whole family. >

Two families. One had Colecovision, the other Intelevision. Fuck, I'm getting old. >

+1 for Intelevision. Tron Deadly Discs... I miss it so... >

The best game they had. >


The passenger was cited 

Shit, 11 years old, already got a record. >

at leasy records for minors are private. aren't they even expunged when they turn 18 sometimes? >

My old roommate couldn't join the US Coast Guard due to having stolen a tractor when he was 12. Apparently it matters who is looking. >

Yep, I was a bit of a rambunctious youth what with getting in trouble for streaking and spray painting. When I enlisted in the National Guard they had all that info and I had to go into detail about everything with them to still be allowed to join. I was lucky they were desperate back then cause they even let a little tattoo behind the ear slide. >

I just listened to the last podcast on the left about them. >

So do people these days have children and then just immediately release them into the wild? >

Do you remember pre cell phone days. Our parents didn’t care where we were until they realized we were late for dinner. >

Sometimes I miss not being reachable and that being normal. >

If it takes a village to raise a child, then in this case, it must've been a loose township collective of raccoons and seagulls >

You just reminded me a line from a song, "It takes a village to raise a kid... but still can produce an idiot." >

The presence of the 11-year-old and the gun make this much less funny.
(The fact that it's still a little funny to me is just another indication that it's probably a good thing I'm not responsible for any children.) >

You just think it’s funny because it’s really funny >

It’s pretty much the Dave chappel crack baby bit >

Just a regular day in Nebraska. >

Ever been to Kearney? Like Rodney Carrington once said: "Ain't nothin to do but drink and farm and farm and drink. Nothin' wrong with that. It's just that too many of 'em are doing it at the same time. there's corn where it shouldn't be!"
"Whole state is flat, but they all got sleds, don't make no god damned sense"
"Why don't we go out and push each other?"

As the saying goes, you can't spell drunk without UNK >

Why does it seem like an abnormal number of very young teens/preteens are committing a bunch of crimes all over the country? Not something like shoplifting or steeling beer, but carjackings, shooting at people, and robbery? It seems people are just getting more brazen in general? (Not to say it didn't happen back than as well, and was just never reported). >

It is not abnormal. As you said, it was just under reported back then, mostly only mentioned in local news. Now stuff like this can reach nationwide and even worldwide status within hours of happening thanks to the web and social forums like Reddit. >

thats been the last 15 years though. Its not like social media appeared last year
And during covid certain crimes- like auto theft- increased.  Now theres the whole kia/hyundai tiktok thing which also increased it >

How many phone books was the driver using? >

that boy is gonna need lessons in how to pick out girls and when to say no lmao >

Not going to lie, she does sound exciting. But I was a glutton for red heads and punishment in my youth. >

Did chasing the children at 100 mph help with or harm public safety (or was it neutral)? Thankfully, it all worked out. >

At this point, the police not just bombing whole streets from a plane preemptively is a blessing. >

Tulsa has joined the chat >

Philadelphia has also entered the chat >

I wonder if the gun and drugs in the car belonged to the girl's parents and now she's the one who will take the fall for them. Obviously, she probably has a bad home life to have access to the keys of a car that contains a gun and drugs, and for her to think it's a good idea to take the car on a high speed chase. 
I swear, some parents should never be allowed to have kids. I work at a school and it's ridiculous and sad how often you realize a kid never really had a chance because of how bad their parents are. >

Now think of all the women being forced to have kids that didn't want them. 
Then go over to r/eyebleach or something equally cute. And donate to your local Planned Parenthood. >

Read girlscout, 13, leads troop on 100 mile chase with boy, 11, 
"In passenger seat" made no sense with the picture of a girl leading her troop on a chase. So I had to start over >

Imagine a world where children are supervised or taught how to behave… >

Yes, because both adults and children alike have been so well behaved up until the last couple of decades. >

I was hoping for the old reality. >

Well, when every highway is hundreds of miles in a straight line, top speeds are easy to reach. >

I am scared and impressed at the same time, imagine the cops faces when two kids pop out of the car. >

Luckily you can drive 200 miles in most of Nebraska and not hit anything. >

Where were the parents? If this is an example of their parenting, kids might be better off with the state. >

Parents are doing such a bang up job on the youth it’s just downright sad >

Same sad shit said by every person getting old. Decade after decade. >

Since their combined age is 24, they will both be tried as adults.
