How did the people named in the article and seen in the photos become our representatives? Was there an election that I missed?

besides the need to teach the the laws of noach, truthfully , our boys would do a great job of teaching these as the teachers just cannot put any strength into it, quote from a public school teacher in flatbush, yes l had a lot of success giving them out, many kids took them and one teacher took a huge amount, she was thrilled,

In my humble opinion, these kids were bored, not too smart, unsupervised and made a huge mistake setting the bus on fire. From the video they appear caught up in the excitement of the blaze before realizing what a dangerous thing they did and then ran off not knowing what to do to or how to put it out. A swift and meaningful punishment/consequence beyond their arrest and Court appearance (at the totally dysfunctional Bklyn Family Court) should include making immediate financial restitution and apologies.

Let the parents pay for the damages their children caused.

These kids have too much free time on their hands and should be ‘punished’ with hours of community service.
