UPS Driver Attacked By Middle School Students

(CBS)BELLWOOD, Ill. A UPS driver was savagely beaten by middle school students while delivering packages in the western suburbs Friday.
The attack happened in Bellwood along the 3200 block of St. Charles. A teenager was arrested Monday after admitting he was involved in the incident. Another juvenile is expected to turn himself in Tuesday to appear in a line-up.

The parents should whip their these kids' asses.

And it was in suburbia, too. There's actually a movie coming out called Alpha Male about how these suburban kids think they're living some "tough" life. Get real. I feel the same way about the Olympia-area many times.

A lot of people talk a lot more than they've actually lived.

One of things I learned through living in my neighborhood in Portland, and from folks I met in the Navy who were from tough areas was that tough guys don't talk. Guys who have lived rough lives don't advertise it, they don't gloat about it, and aren't really all that proud of the things they've done. I rarely believe it when I hear people bragging about how "hard" they are.

Exactly.
