I wonder if this might not have been a hate crime. Sort of a 'beat the ....... in the skirt' type thing.

I hope he turns up somewhere safe and sound, but I cant explain what would make a 17 unable to come or call home if he wanted to.

I hope this story has a happy ending.

Reading this reply made me sad.

I've had people try to do this to me, for exactly this reason. I've lost a tooth because of this, and have been beaten badly. I gave as good as I got, but not everybody can do that.

I really hope the boy turns up safe and sound.

People are so hateful.

I'm thinking more along the lines of drugs and youth gangs. There's hardly a square inch of municipal footprint left in North America that isn't covered by young ruffians.
