How the hell are they NOT bad kids?

So these five "kids" beat a dude, cut his head open, stomp on his head, and steal his wallet.  They get busted.  And the parents claim they're not "bad kids".  No, they actually try to make that claim.

A Brooklyn mom, after her son surrendered to police for the savage stomping of a helpless pedestrian, insisted Tuesday the five accused teen attackers are “not bad kids.”

Yanika Williams, 41, spoke at the 75th Precinct stationhouse after her 15-year-old son turned himself in for the ambush that left the victim with a deep head wound requiring 35 stitches and 16 staples. The badly outnumbered Kenneth Wong, 35, also suffered a broken nose in Friday’s caught-on-video attack.

The fuck they're NOT bad kids!  Not only are they bad kids, they're violent criminal thugs who are a danger to every civilized person around them.  I don't know what made them violent criminal thugs and bad kids, but I don't really care at this point.  I want them locked up where they can no longer be a threat to everyone else.

The youths left the woozy Wong bloodied and battered after stealing his wallet — and then used his credit card to ring up $200 in food purchases, including a blowout dinner at a nearby McDonald’s, the victim said.

Good kids don't do this.  Good people don't do this.  I did my fair share of stupid shit as a kid, but I didn't beat someone up and steal their wallet.  Ever.  My friends didn't beat people up and steal wallets either.  Ever.  Because they were good kids, not a violent group of feral criminal thugs.  Throw those criminals in jail.  For a good long time.

"Good kids" my ass.  Maybe they started out as good kids, but by the time they're slashing a dude, stomping on his face and stealing his wallet they are no longer good anything, or good FOR anything.
