With an arm and leg in casts from a recent motorcycle accident, one agent grabbed his good arm while others seized thousands of dollars worth of computers, video game consoles and other electronics. His parents looked on.

They aren't that Intelligent, obviously because they got caught. The sad thing is the fact that the parents are facing the same thing as the parents in the inner city. This time their kids arent dealing drugs because its quick cash. They are doing computer crimes.

School is boring, but being a script kiddie compared to being smart about it and getting a white hat job is a lot better. At least I dont have to worry about the FBI knocking down my door and I enjoy my paycheck.
