    What is the social redeeming factor by naming these 2 law violators Parents names? Does Don Browne have a negative social agenda ? Does he think that the parents raised the violators to act this way ? I'm not sure why the parents name needed to be posted other than a typical news persons grandstanding. Had these 2 men been the children of a fruit picker or a sales clerk at Burger King, I doubt that the names would have been mentioned. No wonder we can't trust the media!
