A former Green Beret combat veteran and member of the Virginia House of Delegates who is active on X has provided a brief explanation why “barbarians,” i.e., unruly youth, run wild and break the law, requiring law enforcement intervention.
Nick Freitas posted a video spotlighting a recent incident at the Wisconsin State Fair in which a group of teenagers “started running around and beating the crap out of people.”
Freitas explains how the typical scenario following such acts is that one of the ne’re-do-wells ends up getting “beat or shot” by police – followed by the scoundrel’s “wailing mother” and politicians demanding an investigation of law enforcement.
Turns out in such situations, an ounce of prevention is in fact worth a pound of cure. Freitas points out:
“Every single generation we have an invasion of barbarians. They’re called children, and they have to be civilized as soon as possible.
“What probably could have solved with a wooden spoon across the a** of an unruly 6-year-old boy now had to be stopped with police, now had to be stopped with nightsticks, Tasers and guns.”
Later Freitas targets those “who didn’t take responsibility for raising their own children. … If you’re not willing to train your little barbarian, then guess what? Civilization will be required to stop them.”
