- One commenter said, “These 'children' live in a different society where the rules and values of our society do not apply.” “And by 'our society' I mean the type of society that works, builds, and tries to do its best. Physically we share the same time and space, but no more. We cannot leave. This is not a good ending for our country.”
- Another commenter said, “I'm a senior and Carrie.” She said, “25 years ago she would never have thought about carrying it.''
- Another said: “They are someone's children and they are out of control.” “They think they know what they're doing, but they don't know what the consequences or the prison sentence will be. This is a new generation of young people, and their mindset is to value themselves and others. They don't believe in the future, they're not taught to plan their lives, set goals, and strive to be better than previous generations.”
