Looks like the US courts have taken this maxim a step further and jailed the parents of a school shooter for 10-15 years. I can't remember what my folks bought me for my 15th birthday. It was probably OK, but I think I'd remember if it was a semi automatic handgun. The tight gets.

Anyway the convicted parents aren't eligible for parole for ten years. Although if things go Trump shaped in November they will be eligible for pardon in about 9 months.
 
It's worse than that, he got caught trying to buy ammunition in school and his mum text him "lol next time don't get caught" on the day of the shooting mum said she was to busy to take him home and then went and met her affair partner in a car park.

These parent knew their son was messed up and encouraged it, 15 years is not long enough.

Cant have been mine as it wasn't even a footy pitch, it was just the local strip of grass near my house.

It was black BTW, but thinking about it, it probably wasn't my 15th but probably my 13th.

Funnily enough, two years before chickenrunner found his watch, I was walking past a strip of grass and saw what appeared to be a jumping lizard. Imagine my surprise etc...

"The tight gets" :LOL:

I got a case ball as normal and my Season Ticket - as they always said it was part of my birthday present. "Boxing day boy". followed by the words "We don't mind spoiling you but we wont ruin you" I didnt quite realise what that meant at the time.
