Just Harmless Fun?

What is it about Snow that makes people go crazy?  It turns perfectly normal young people into thugs and vandals.  You can't walk down the street without seeing someone being pelted with a snowball from behind a wall.  Then there is the traffic issue.  If driving along icy roads wasn't dangerous enough, you also have to contend with little white missiles being thrown from all angles.  I myself was on a bus just a few days ago, that was hit by at least twenty snowballs all at once.  They were hitting the side of the bus and the windows, all within a few seconds of each other.  It was like driving through a war zone.  I can only guess what the poor driver must have been thinking.  It is only a matter of time before this so called 'harmless fun' causes a serious accident.  Today they might just be throwing snowballs but tomorrow it could be concrete from the top of a motorway bridge.  I've said it before and I'll say it again, young people these days are out of control.  Teachers blame the parents and vice versa, therefore nobody is stepping in and taking control of the situation.  The real question is; Where is it all going to end?
