Reginald Gardner

Give me a break! The Times once again pulls out all stops to convince its readers that wrong is right.
Six-year-old Reginald Gardner gives the finger to the police and is turned into a hero. His mother claims she “sets strict rules and tries to show him the consequences of his actions,” then obtains a photo of the act and frames it. In so doing Reginald learns the consequences of his action is fame and celebrity status with a framed photo to prove it!
Only when the media stop making heroes out of vicious, self-indulgent scum can Reginald look forward to growing up in a better, safer Los Angeles.
