“Street hoodlums” is a good phrase that fell out off fashion. Or am I just getting old?
I disagree with Gruber. While the current calls against social media echo the comic-book/rap-music/video-game scares, there is hard(ish) data on their detrimental effects in some children and adolescents. Certainly enough to justify more scrutiny.

Have a great weekend, all.
