Pakistan Is No Place For Crime.

       Well, it's about time! The Pakistani judicial system is finally cracking down on criminals. With a history of allowing many international criminals to live in Pakistan without so much as an investigation, criminals like Osama BinLaden and Hafez Saeed who has a $10 million price on his head, Pakistani police have arrested a grandfather, father and son for rioting and throwing rocks at gas workers trying to turn off the gas to customers who have not paid their bills.
       This criminal family who may have injured some workers, that's not clear in the report, have been arraigned and the youngest thumb printed. But what makes this incident so newsworthy, besides the fact that the courts are taking this crime so serious, is the fact that the youngest perpetrator is just 9 months old. But age should not be factored in. Guilty is guilty. Pakistan will brook no age discrimination. If he's found guilty of throwing rocks at those workers, that's it, period.
       In his defense, the boy's grandfather points out that the 9 month old infant can't even hold his milk bottle by himself yet. Of course we all know that can be faked. Babies scream and cry all the time just to get attention. It's a common ploy and one that should not be used as a defense tactic in such a criminal case. Next thing you know, the baby will be wanting the bailiff to change his diaper.
       So! If you're going to a rally against some gas workers, or any others and are planning on throwing anything at the demonstration, it would be best to leave that infant at home. Of course if the whole family is going, then leaving that baby home alone could be considered a crime as well. On the other hand, if that child can throw rocks, why can't he manage on his own. Nobody's gonna mess with a rock throwing, 9 month old hardcase. Especially if he's screaming and crying and needs his diaper changed. I can attest that any intruder will run the other way. Most dads too.
