Should not let on property without a warrant they have no right to be on private property without a warrant
Let’em drink at that age. As it does appear Iowa might have it’s own virus variant. Imagine that. If this proves to be true it could be called the Omega variant. Meaning more money is coming along with boosters shots. Such a careless rush to go back to the way we were. So where’s the harm in letting these invincible young men drink.
We are the party of law and order until it comes to our kids.
Wow. Who’s the loser dbag that called in a rural farm party. Karen’s need to get hobbies. They are all old enough to die for their country but you wanna get on their ass for having a few drinks? Some ppl are a waste of space and oxygen. Whoever called that in I hope they have a massive stroke. Some folks seem to bust a nut on ruining anyone elses good time. Like they are so miserable they look for ways to ruin other ppls joy. There is an option for Karen’s and scrooges… You all don’t have to stay in this miserable life being a victim of everyone else minding their own business. You can opt out, you losers.
You would be whining a different tune if one of those underaged drinkers, while driving drunk, hit and killed someone from your family. There are laws for a reason, unfortunately even adults think they are above the law. Check out the young girl in jail right now.
I hope they do get in a car drive. The world is over populated, cull the herd. Probably drinking bud light seltzer too.
Strange I don’t see any owi tickets in the article. You’re assuming they where going to get drink and drive…. Honestly judging by the amount of busch light cans littering the ditches of iowa and the lack of constant death on the roads I’m less worried about a drunk driver than I am about one of my family catching stray bullets from some pos transplant from Chicago or detroit or their offspring during one of mason cities classic drive by shootings. Worry about actual problems you lamer.
FYI, OWI is an actual problem. There were no tickets because they were arrested before they had a chance to drive. How do you suppose they were going to get home, uber? Drunk driving happens daily, your drive by shootings in mason not so much. If your worried about getting shot, stay out of those areas and stay off the streets at night. It’s called personnel responsibility, of which you probably have none. Scofflaw!!!
Let’s use your dimwitted logic.
You said, “If your worried about getting shot, stay out of those areas and stay off the streets at night. It’s called personnel responsibility, of which you probably have none. Scofflaw!!!”
Let’s just change a couple of things, “If your worried about getting hit by a drunk driver, stay off the streets. It’s called personnel responsibility, of which you probably have none. Scofflaw!!!”
There, all fixed.
Stupid reasoning, remember,it is YOURS.
“Let’s use your dimwitted logic.”
You must be a Harvard grad, some great logic there.
Hey Ida, at least he graduated, even if it was Harvard. You, on the other hand, would fail a GED test.
