Yeah, he's showing so much regret. This is the illness that America is going to have to deal with in the near future. What is going to happen to people like this? What are they going to do to our prospects of having a great country in the future?
I am so sick and tired of this ghetto culture that people glamorize. It's sick and it's corrosive. Are we ever going to wake up? It's not something that is harmless or funny.

Teen sorry for video of children smoking pot
11:18 PM CST on Monday, March 5, 2007
By DEBRA DENNIS / The Dallas Morning News and JIM DOUGLAS / WFAA-TV
Demetris McCoy
Demetris McCoy says he's sorry for the firestorm he caused after his two young nephews were videotaped as they smoked marijuana, but he says he doesn't believe he is the first to expose the boys to the illegal drug.
The Watauga 17-year-old is in the Tarrant County Jail, charged with injury to a child after police released a video of a 2-year-old and a 5-year-old boy doing drugs.
But even as he apologized in a jailhouse interview with WFAA-TV on Monday, Mr. McCoy talked about how his nephews didn't get high while smoking the marijuana. He predicted the youngsters would have eventually smoked the drug anyway.
"They wasn't even high," Mr. McCoy said. "They didn't even inhale it right."
The youngsters on the videotape are the children of Mr. McCoy's sister.
Mr. McCoy said he has been around marijuana all of his life and that drugs, for many, is just a part of growing up.
"Some people give their kids alcohol, let them smoke ice, methamphetamines. Weed ain't going to kill them," he said.
Mr. McCoy, the father of a 3-month-old daughter who said he is a high school dropout and pursuing a GED, said he has watched the video at the Tarrant County jail since his arrest last month.
"It happened, and I can't go back to the past," Mr. McCoy said. "I'm sorry for what I did. I'm sorry for the pain I caused my sister."
He described his nephews, who are now in foster care, as "puffing and playing with [the drug]."
Mr. McCoy said he allowed the children to smoke because he was high on marijuana at the time and also said he believed they had smoked the drug before.
Mr. McCoy's friend, 18-year-old Vanswan Polty, also is charged with injury to a child with bodily injury. If convicted, they could receive up to 10 years in prison and/or be fined $10,000.
The two were out on bail on a burglary charge in Watauga when the tape was made.
The tape was confiscated by Fort Worth police on Feb. 22 when officers executed a search warrant at Mr. McCoy's home in the 6000 block of Hickoryhill Road in Watauga.
Watauga Department of Public Safety Director Bruce Ure said the teens encouraged the two young boys to smoke a marijuana cigar.
The teens, laughing on the videotape as they offer the children the drug, call the boys "potheads." They also make jokes about the children having the "munchies."
"You're watching a crime in progress," Mr. Ure said. "This is their uncle, and he's encouraging them. They were so willing to go along, to please their uncle. Encouraging a 2-year-old who is clearly a baby – it's a baby, and they think it's funny watching him impaired."
Investigators, he said, were appalled as they watched the tape.
Mr. Ure said this was not the first time the children had been given marijuana.
"You can see that the 2-year-old, he's inhaling," Mr. Ure said.
The boys' mother told police that she was asleep in a back bedroom at the time of the recording.
Mr. McCoy said he is surprised by the attention the recording has raised, saying the media has blown the matter out of proportion.
"Nine times out of 10, kids are going to smoke," Mr. McCoy said. "Kids are going to smoke. It was going to eventually happen."
When told that media outlets across the world were showing the tape, Mr. McCoy said he did not welcome the attention.
"This ain't nothing to be famous for. This ain't good. I recorded it, and that's what hurt me most."
Police are searching a third teen who may have made the tape.
Mr. McCoy was arrested Feb. 23. Mr. Polty was arrested Friday in Fort Worth.
Both are being held in lieu of $150,000 bail.
A hearing to determine whether the boys would remain in foster care is set for March 26 in Tarrant County Juvenile Court, said Marissa Gonzales, spokeswoman for Child Protective Services.

If we had caning here that shit wouldn't happen!
For more information...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caning
The dude is a joke and isn't sorry one bit. Just look at his responses in the interview. Far as I'm concerned, they should lock him up for the full term of the maximum sentence. They should also require him to have no contact with any children unless he is supervised once he gets out.
Edit: I agree with ya on the ghetto culture thing as well, porgie.
He betrayed the childrens trust and violated them by subjecting them to something dangerous.
I say hang him, ok maybe not hang him but some serious jail time wouldn't hurt to knock some sense into his think skull.
This isn't something that is occurring on an individual or even just a minor scale. This is horribly becoming the norm in large parts of our cities and society. And it's not just in the rural areas anymore. This culture is being glamorized through various forms of media, fed into our kids minds who are becoming adults and perpetuating the whole thing generation after generation. It's only getting worse and worse. You hear people say, "This never happened when I was growing up", because it didn't!!!! It's spreading.
I'm not a fan of big government, but in order for a society to exist without turning to government to answer all it's problems, it needs to step up and take some responsibility.
So what are some solutions you guys can come up with that an individual can do to try to fix this problem that is going on? This is one generation already exposing the next to the filth in the streets and making another generation feel like it's normal. This kid made it into the foster system, so hopefully it will find a good set of parents and hopefully it's not too late. But what do we do with the rest of the people still in this? How do we break the cycle of this whole thing?
Or do we just turn to the government and let it be the governments problem so that when nothing gets fixed we have something to blame it on other than ourselves?

You guys think you have it bad?! We don't even have the death penalty over here!
A guy like that would probably be given a knighthood in the UK. IMHO people like that should just be hung.. it's a quick, easy solution to the problem.
I guess anyone can have kids. And since it's so promoted in today's society we get what we wish for, eh?

See where the gangsta life gets you kids. Lot's of fame and recognition. I guess he got what he always wanted that he saw in that rap video.

I agree. The sad thing is, it just puts one more kid in an already overburdened and ineffectual system. One of the main causes of the problem the OP brings up about the ghetto culture. It's just a big, vicious cycle.
Also, to be fair, it just says he has a kid, not that the kid is with him. Like I said, he probably left as soon as the girl said she was pregnant. Hopefully, she will be a good mother and save the child from the aforementioned cycle. You can only hope.

Call me negative, but I bet she's just as bad as him.How else would she have met this guy and gotten the idea that having premarital unprotected sex with him was the right thing to do?

True enough. Considering he's 17, she is probably the same age or younger. Babies having babies, ya know.
Drug dealing and morals don't usually mix. Granted, you have to draw a line somewhere, and I wouldn't have crossed that line, but selling to minors is a viable market, and they're just going to buy it somewhere else. Might as well cash in on potential profit.
I wouldn't video tape it or sell it to 2 year olds though.

Seriously, while thats pretty fucked up to do to a kid, video taping it just put him on the "you stupid dumbass" list.
Look if you are going to exploit youth, keep the damn film off.
What the hell is wrong with people.
On a serious note, atleast it wasn't crack.
There is nothing "Ghetto" about pot - You'll find it to be a part of many cultures.
I personaly think this thread is damn hilarious. According to some of the guys here, both me, my mother, my sister, my father, my uncle, my grandma, my grandpa, and.. Well, just about every member of my family, should be locked up for good, and never be allowed to get in contact with kids again - Unless supervised, ofcourse. Why? I've given so called drugs to kids. I've let my 6 month old niece taste a bit of beer, here and there - Not much, probaly just 1/100th of a liter. You see, there taste sensors haven't been fully developed yet, and they are therefor only capable of tasting certain parts of the beer - And they quite often like it. My sister have likewise let her daugther taste a tiny bit. My mom and dad let me taste their beer when i was a lil' rat. Once, when i was around 1-2 years old, i was having a very painfull throat, and was unable to sleep. My mom and dad gave me a tiny bit of schnapps, and i fell asleep. When i was around 6 years old, my uncle let me taste a bit of his liquor. Likewise, i've tasted my grandpa's beer here and there, as well as my grandma's "special drink" - Different herbs and vitamins mixed together with some alcohol(About the same strength as vodka), which she took a shot of every day.
I even once got a cigarret from my dad(Around the age of 8), to lit some fireworks during new years eve, but ofcourse i tasted on it.
But ofcourse, people are ignorant. Alcohol is socially accepted. Alcohol is not viewed upon as a drug, by most - Even though it's a mind altering substance.
If you read up on the facts about alcohol, and then on pot, it'll no doubt give you are more realistic view upon the things. Alcohol is more addicting than pot. Alcohol causes many more longterm damages to your body, than pot. Alcohol costs, at least Denmark, millions upon millions of dollar a year - Traffic accidents, alcoholics with failing liver, people drinking too much and getting "pumped out" at the hospital, alcoholics getting send to the psychiatric ward.. And people just pure and simply dying by ingesting too much. Did you know that nobody ever took an overdose of pot and died of it - That means, the medical staff could not directly link the death to pot? Did you know about the medical use of pot, which helps everyone from Cancer - and HIV patients(Increase lust for food) to Asthmatics(Two edged sword, the smoke disturbs the lungs and ofcourse carries the risks of normal tobacco smoking, if you mix your marijuanna up with tobacco)?
Ofcourse there is the negative effects of pot abuse, such as short term learning impairment, loose of concentration for some, cancer in mainly throat and lung area etc.. But several researches have proved, that if you try to compare pot to cigarrets and alcohol - Pot ends up as the most friendly, less damaging substance. And that is both in short- and longterm.
My post here is ofcourse filled with information that favours my opinion(I've smoked hashis each day for 6 months, currently just a few times a month), but look up and you'll be informed. Erowid.com is a great place to start. At least here in Denmark, the goverment teaches us nothing but propaganda about drugs - Always portraying only the bad side of them, not showing those that manage to increase their lust for life by "abusing them"(This is specially true about marijuanna, many people with an mental disorder uses it to better handle social contact - Eg., they're free from locking themself up inside their apartment). Always giving a heavy painted picture about drugs, the crackwhore who almost died of overdosing heroin, the high school dropout sitting on wellfare.. But there is weak people everywhere. Including in the world of drugs.
And lets be honest to each other, how many drug-related accidents wouldn't ever have happened, if the kids was actually learned something about these illegal substances?
You also have to consider the drug in question. I'm not going to use a 2 year old as my example because that is just absurd, but say a 14 year old is trying to buy some drugs. If he is looking for marijuana, he's going to find it with relative ease. Now if you're considering selling drugs to a 14 year old, it's important to weigh out all the options. Marijuana is mostly harmless, its addictive qualities are mild, and only on a psychological level, and the market is flooded with it. In the instance of a 14 year old trying to buy a dime bag, I would sell it to him (at a jacked up price mind you, I have to exploit the fact that his parents are paying for it and he doesn't know his prices.) Then I would just monitor the situation and make sure it didn't get out of hand. If he continued coming back to buy some, say, once a week, I'd continue selling it to him. If I suspected he was becoming a head, I'd refuse to continue to sell to him.
But being that profit margins on marijuana are laughable, I find it a pointless product to peddle. Without going into detail, my profit margins are 2-3x higher than weed, I am in much higher demand, and I make sure my clients aren't junkies. I set ground rules from the get go: don't call me after 3 am for any reason, don't try to bullshit prices with me, don't question what I give you, don't buy from me more than a couple times a week.
It's a business just like any other in the world, it just happens to be illegal at the time. You can say I'm contributing to the downfall of our youth/society, but all I'm doing is riding the demand wave. If you aren't an idiot like the guy in the article, you won't get in trouble and you'll supplement your income. I wouldn't call that shady, I'd call it smart.

In Italy, children are exposed to alcohol very early on and they develop a respect and and an education about it in a supervised environment....instead of experimenting and learning about it from their college or high school friends for the first time. Children in Italy are better off when it comes to alcohol. Same would go for marijuana i'm sure, and of course it is better than alcohol physically and mentally.
Of course if I was a parent I wouldn't give my child marijuana at 5. That is too young.

And lets be honest to each other, how many drug-related accidents wouldn't ever have happened, if the kids was actually learned something about these illegal substances? I see your profile says you live in Denmark. So I'm going to assume you don't know what "ghetto" means here in America.
In America a person can be ghetto without even touching drugs. It's a term used to describe a person who lives an urban trash life style. They never learn to speak English appropriately, never look towards being a productive citizen, show no respect for others, expect a handout from those who work their asses off each day, and live a generally trashy lifestyle while acting smug about being garbage. Most of the time this lifestyle is glamorized in the rap music that is released in this country. There a few rap artists who speak out against it, but they are a very small percentage of the rap community and are usually looked down upon or called "Uncle Toms".
Hope that clears things up.
Being in education, I have learned a lot about how a kids mind develops, and when a child this young is exposed to drugs like marijuana it can stunt the development of their brains.
Kind of looks like it happened to the teen in this story. Just look at the way he talks and the way he acts in the video. I know some people may not be able to spot it, but the first day of class I would know something is wrong with this kid on a cognitive level.
Sorry porgie, but this isn't the future of america, this is the PRESENT of america.
The world most people don't see (because they refuse to help the poor) is a world of reality...where by the time the child is 5 years old they have already tried Heroine and Cocaine.
There's an entire WORLD out there, in america's streets ALONE, where children are addicted to the worst of drugs before the age of 5.
It's not always an immature kid who barely knows what he's doing either. A lot of the times it's a fully grown adult that causes these horrible things to happen, sometimes by force.
It's not the future at all, it's been the present for quite some time now, people just don't know it because they are busy living in their happy spoiled worlds.
This news is not just nothing new, but it's weak compared to what really happens in america. Marijuana? Yea right, try cocaine and heroine. Despite the average ignorant's wikipedia-based knowledge against such a remark... Marijuana is of course bad, but imagine how much worse cocaine is. Cocaine is INCREDIBLY addictive.
Nothing new under the sun.
