Your editorial on outrageous mail box vandalism this morning
( May 9 ) made me reflect on the possible inspiration for it. Most
young idiots lack imagination even for mischief and look to
Hollywood for great ideas.
View the film " Stand By Me " - based on a Stephen King
story. There is a scene in it where the delinquent leader," Ace ",
is bashing off country road mail boxes with a baseball bat
while riding in the front seat of a car. A dozen decapitations
were enough batting practice for the day !
Ace's " hobby " was worthy of his future occupation-
lounge lizard in a small town bar.
I won't blame horror writer Stephen King for this
mail box vandalism . But those movies DO give the less bright
kids IDEAS !
