Bank Robbers had options

Last night, someone must have complained about the article I referenced on my post below because the Enquirer changed the title, byline and added an author to the link.

Now the headline reads

Bank robbers had options

and the by line

Two young black men – who told a judge they robbed a Reading bank because they needed college tuition – had other options but didn’t use them, said the mother of one man and minority advocates.


Did either of these clowns think about something like..... getting a job. And yes I know tuition is a lot higher than it was when I went to school but $130,000. It's still not that high at Toledo or UC.

The whole reporting of this thing is a disgrace. Lot's of kids are faced with lots of challenges and somehow manage to not put a shotgun in the chest of a bank teller. I don't care if these thugs were up for Nobel Peace Prizes, they should be getting lots of time and the media shouldn't be trying to generate pity for these fools.

Next for the Enquirer..... They'll come out with a pity piece about the thugs who robbed some boy scouts selling Christmas trees because they needed a new car.
