Boy Set on Fire over video game

On Monday October 12, 2009 five juveniles set 15 year old Michael Brewer on fire over a video game!

This all started by Brewer borrowing 40 dollars from one of the boys to buy a video game, and did not pay him back. On Monday the boy who hadn't been paid back the 40 dollars decided to steal Brewer's father's bike. Brewer saw the boy stealing it and called the police. The boy was caught and in retaliation got 4 of his friends together. Went over to Brewer's house and dowsed him the rubbing alcohol and set him ablaze.

Before setting him on the fire the boys were yelling at Brewer calling him a snitch for calling the police on the one boy for stealing the bike.

Michael Brewer sustained 2nd degree burns over 80 percent of his body. The 5 boys are are now in police custody and being charged with with aggravated battery. The boy thought to of setting Brewer on fire faces the additional charge of second-degree attempted murder.

sheriff's Sgt. Steve Feeley told CNN

"A couple of them last night were laughing about it," he said. "One of them arrested today seems genuinely sorry about it."

Last night we watched this on our local tv news channel. To see that children from the ages of 13-15 years old are doing these kinds of things just proves that society is turning our children into monsters who have no conscience and that when we allow video games, tv, movies and all that society is throwing at us to raise our children this is the species it creates. Then we punish the children for doing the things that they are being exposed to all the time and are shown it is ok. Like horror movies and certain video games promote these kinds of behaviors. Why aren't we punishing the parents and those who are allowing them to be exposed to these kinds of behaviors to learn them along with the children for committing these horrendous crimes.

We ask this same question all the time, "WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?"

They are taking God and morale out of everything and replacing it with these kinds of things and our children and future generations are like a sub human species that have no heart and no compassion for anyone. America this is our future, and if we don't try and change it before this generation are the ones running our Country I think we are in for some dark times here.

Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
