hbrenWhen the officer stated to spider that if he wanted to be a real man he should get a job, I couldn’t help but think of the Chapter 5 where Ronny tried to do this but was treated less then and turned away. I just don’t understand why there solution is to get a job when the system does not try and help in any way. #so345
@hbren This is something more officers need to be aware of. They clearly don't realize that by arresting one of the boys for the smallest of offenses or classifying them as a criminal/delinquent, that gets put onto their criminal history, something employers look at straight away. Because no employers want to accept kids with "criminal" backgrounds, the boys can't get jobs, thus not allowing them to achieve the "manhood" the officers want them to have. There is simply no winning for them. #so345
