    They probably thought the drugs were kicking in a little early and it was time to go find a quieter place to hallucinate.

    The kids got guts, but not a whole lot of sense. It must have terrified his mother witless to see him burst into the room, liable to get shot.

    I doubt it. Would you admit to dressing up as a Power Ranger in a conversation when you're twenty?

    Heck, I a friend grew up during the fashion disaster that was the seventies. I have He has burned every photo he can get my his hands on and locked his mother in a cupboard.

    LOL. I thought it was funny how a 8 year old kid helped police catch a robber, but this is twice as funny. They got scared of A Powe Ranger, and I thought I was obess with them when I was a kid LOL good story

    It sounds like they'd got their stuff and were ready to leave already. Little kid aint too smart, I guess his parents let him watch too much tv.

    Your link leads to most recent article or something cowhead.

    Good thing he didn't panic the robbers enough to pull the trigger, would've been a tragedy then. Hope the kid grows out of his super hero phase, thinking he actually morphed into a power ranger can't be good for his development.

    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    I was a pretty dorky kid back in my day, but I never actually believed I could morph into a power ranger. That is just sad.

    Exactly - its funny, but could have been very very nasty, its not good for people to do things like that (although it makes good news)

    great googly moogly...

    Even when I was 4 years old I wasn't that stupid, but the least we can say is that he apparently is smarter than grown up burglars. And those burglars are still on the run. Doesn't that tell you something about the police?
