A 12-YEAR-OLD New York City boy is accused of pulling a gun on a classmate and demanding that she give him her chicken nugget.
Police say the boy first approached the girl inside a McDonald’s in Harlem on Tuesday and asked her for one of her Chicken McNuggets. When the girl refused, police say the boy followed her as she walked to a nearby subway station and pointed a gun at her head, demanding that she give him a nugget.
Police say the girl smacked the gun away and told the boy to leave her alone.
The girl reported the incident to school officials the next day and the boy was taken into police custody for attempted robbery. The gun was not found, and it’s unclear if it was real.

If you want something kept private then don’t put it online. Least of all on social media. Users need to take some responsibility for the volume of personal information they happily put on the internet.
It’s a little more complicated than that.
No it really isn’t. If its private don’t put it online. No need to blame Facebook for peoples need to blab.
It isn’t solely what people put up online.
It’s about Facebook tracking your online habits, the sites you visit. Your GPS tracking data through your smart phone is also used. And it’s about the right of that company to sell people’s data on to third parties.
So it is a little bit more complicated than that.
Everything tracks your online habits not just Facebook as for the GPS tracking, if people didn’t freely tag themselves in every movie theatre, sporting event and restaraunt they visit then you might have a point. I’ve seen people gag themselves watching movies at “my comfy couch”
Online privacy is never going to happen. The sooner people realise that and adjust the information they share accordingly, the sooner we’ll all be safer “on our comfy couches”
Still, everything they track you put online or someone did because its interesting. Either way its never private and banning it online is just backwards.
Checking in at your home address or any other private home address always seemed unbelievably stupid….. There’s even a b
There’s even a bloody map
Everybody delete your Facebook!
i challenge anyone to delete all their private messages, comments, and friends on Facebook. then delete your account…Under Section 3 of the Data Protection Acts, you have a right to find out, free of charge, if a person (an individual or an organization) holds information about you. write to Facebook and ask them for everything they have on file about you within 21days you will be surprised to see that all these private messages, comments, friends and all other information will be pages long nothing is deleted from Facebook you may think its gone!!
