Honestly everyone I know that was like that, that broke the law when they were young, turned out to be unsuccessful. Many are addicted to opiates. Very few have real jobs. None of them are educated beyond high school. Frankly, they're all harshly considered "losers."
It doesn't surprise me these things happen in rural America. Small towns, your dad knows the local sheriff, you doing something "illegal" and getting arrested is them taking you to your dad.
- dx87 6y agoIt's not just rural towns. My dad grew up in the suburbs outside a major city, and he has similar stories of people getting drunk and destroying property in high school. The cops were just as lenient as well. He told me one time he was drinking with some friends and they got pulled over, and the cop just told them to drive straight home because it was the middle of the night and he didn't want to deal with a bunch of drunk teenagers.
