LOL ... omg that is the funniest article ever!

Well thankfully it wasn't mario kart or he would try throwing turtle shells out the window...

If this turns into another excuse to bash video games I'm going to puke. Video games didnt give the kid access to the parents keys and car nor did video games let a six year old buy a 17+ level game!

wow i just heard this story on my local philly radio station like 45 minutes ago, they didn't mention the video games aspect so i wasn't expecting to see it here too. lol

Hey now, let's put a positive spin on this thing. This could be the perfect example of how videogames and gov't education can coexist peacefully. That is some serious dedication to still make to school. Or maybe the kid was lying and really wanted to pick up hookers.

Well, it obviously didn't do a very good job of teaching him to drive.

@brando

Maybe playing GTA was the reason he crashed. If he thought the driving there is how the car would handle that might have caused the crash. Maybe next time his parents can get him Turismo or Project Gotham, then he would be able to make it to school on time and not crash. Also they'd be seen as better parents, because if true, letting a 6 year old play GTA is fucking awful.

Well it sounds funny from a 6 year old, but I do actually notice that I get to know the Nordschleife a lot better for driving it in real life by practicing it in games :-)

When I plan a trip there, I drive at least 2 times a day in the month before that and when I get there I really notice that I know the track better then some of my "racingfriends" that don't practice it in games :-)

Luckily with my G25 and GTR-Evolution, the track and cars feel a lot more realistic then they are in Forza :-)

From We are respectable negroes:

I have to ask: is this a white ign't or a black ign't? What do the clues tell us? I vote PWT aka Caucasian sub-human. Why? Let me share my inductive reasoning:

1. There was no interview or picture of the family. White folk tend to hide their shame, while ign'ts revel in it and grant interviews;

2. The child is driving a 2005 Taurus. This is a rather pedestrian vehicle. The fact that the car is only 3 years old implies it was purchased new. Ign'ts lease the most current SUV available and then have it repossessed within a year;

3. The child was desperate to go to school. He didn't drive around the 'hood. He knew that school was a good place because it had phys ed and breakfast. White ign't children know the value of an education;

4. The mother fell asleep and both kids were taken by child protective services. I propose that mom was tweaking on meth, the State found a house in utter disrepair, and it is in rural Virginia. These factors equal meth country. And, mom is white because ign'ts are not doing meth...yet;

5. Mom was named Jacqulyn and this could be a curve ball. Yes, the name is sufficiently ign't and "creative," but to my ear it screams more Caucasian cave dweller/PWT, i.e. sort of like Daisy or Tripp or Bristol, than black ign't. I could be wrong, perhaps this is a black ign't married to a PWT family? My, the progress brought by the age of Obama;

What do you, my respectable negro friends and allies, think? Is this an ign't family, a PWT family, or something all together different? What is the logic governing your conclusion?

the lolcano has errupted yo.

Old news. I put this in our newspaper yesterday. XD

"The Lord has been charged with aiding and abetting a minor in a stolen vehicle"

Holy shit did I laugh at that!!!

I live in Virginia. I don't find this story out of the ordinary at all.

I knew the Lord had something to do with this. winner

HAHAHA wtf.

I love you Jim. Just.. don't get any ideas.

The surprise punchline got me. Well-played.

Why are the kids in protective custody? The parents had nothing to do with anything! Besides, I know a couple of people who were playing M-games by age 6, and they made it this far in life OK.

Yeah when I was six pretty sure I never played video games, my form of fun at that age was digging holes with my friend outside. GTA taught this kid how to drive? Im sure he didnt learn anything at all when he was sitting in the front seat watching his mommy and daddy driving. But he's six, so why the hell was he playing GTA!?

that last line was fucking genius

thanks for that

I love your last line and your image. Seriously.

Im surprised your all surprised his allowed to play gta, my first online match playing duke nukem 3d am playing with a six year old and also get shouted at by another person in the room for swearing with the kid in the room WTF.
