To the little shits who stand by the railing on the upper floor of the mall and throw coins at people walking on the lower floor, laugh and run away. FUCK YOU. You hit my infant daughter on the scalp and in the eye with a penny. She’s having trouble seeing out of it because a few days after the injury you inflicted, it got infected. It could spread to the other eye and even blind her. I just wanted you to know that you might have seriously damaged the vision of a baby girl for the rest of her life. Hope you can feel good about that. And to parents with small children especially small children in strollers walking on the lower floor, stay under the overhang.

That is absolutely tragic. I really hope there’s no lasting vision impairment for your baby girl. You should go to the media about it. Then maybe the mall cops would do their jobs (I’ve yet to see one actually stop juvenile behaviour, even when they’re in close proximity).
I don’t think this is the mall cops fault… I mean if they see it they should stop it of course, but did they see it? Probably not. It’s really easy to do something like that inconspicuously…
If one of my brood had been beaned like that, I’d be pointing and screaming at the little fucks to draw attention to their worthless hides. They’d scatter fast enough, especially if you alerted security.
good lord i hope your child is alright; if these little shits get caught they should be charged with assault
OP: First and foremost, I hope your baby girl is ok and that there are no long term effects from this. Secondly, hunt these little bastards down and shove a re-hot, rusty coat-hanger in their eye. And remove it through their ass! Little punks like this only understand one thing and the mall cops sure as shit aren’t going to administer it.
Seriously, that is fucked. Hope your kid is okay, OP.
That’s just effed! Where are the parents of these little idiots and what kind of parenting turns out this sort of behaviour?
You should notify the owner of the mall about the seriousness of your child’s injury and that this behavior hasn’t been stopped by the security.
exactly… what the hell?
why is this ‘fun’? hurting people at your expense?
fucking kids…
PAUL BLART!
Seriously, OP, you might have a case for a lawsuit here.
Kids still do that? We did that back in the 70’s…then we grew up.
Yes they’re the tween psychopaths who eventually get bored and move on to throwing cinder blocks off of overpasses for kicks.
When the fountain was at Mic Mac Mall I use to throw a penny into the fountain from the top level, but never NEVER at people, nor did I hit anyone… If I had’ve hit someone I would have made a scene by apologizing like a fool (from the top floor), and running up to said person and buying them ice cream/coffee/whatever…
But on topic, I hope these bastard twit kids rot for this, and get some serious karmic payback. You might not have been the first (or the last) person this happens to… Arg! Stupid fuckin people! (Not you OP, the little shits)
i am sorry about your wee bairn op…like ttfn said scream like a fucking banshee probably the word fire would attract some attention…people tend to tune out unless it affects them directly. on a side note: love that pic bluenoser
BTW, we never threw stuff at women OR children, except trying to throw the occasional one down some large breasted woman top…I mean we were teenagers…
It is a great photo, thx
OP, why not move your kid when you noticed the coins being tossed? Or whoop some punk-kid ass?
Of course it’s the parents’ fault someone assaulted their child, NGF.
Jerk.
Maybe the parents didn’t realize they were throwing coins over the ledge until it hit their child? I’m pretty sure no parent would be all “HAY! let’s stand under the rainfall of coins from the upper floors!”
And MAYBE the little shits ran away when they realized what they did, and I’m sure the first thought of any parent is the safety of their child i.e.: I’m sure this parent was more concerned with their child who was likely crying and who was injured than lugging a stroller up two/three flights of stairs to chase a bunch of little wankers who had a pretty hefty head start.
I love ya bud, but your comment was just a whole lotta asshole.
I hope your baby is ok, OP. What an awful thing to have happen 🙁
shit,if they wanna throw money at me,by all means,do so.just make it 50 and 100 dollar bills though.
yeah, these little bastards start off small. then they grow up to be real pieces of shit like that smelvin creep. speaking of which,the wanna be daddy man, is in jail again, bet he gets off with another fucking slap on the wrists. hang the fucking douchebag.
How was it that Mr. Lahey put it?
“A Shit Apple doesn’t fall far from a Shit Tree”?
Reshitivists, all of them.
If this had happened to my child (brought to you by Visa official sponsors of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics):
1. Obtain mall camera footage (bribe 300-500$)
2. Canvas 3-4 junior high school side entrances with 20$ bills for identities (1200$)
3. Trip to Canadian Tire and Gas Station (200$)
4. Old minivan and some imagination (800$)
5. Satisfaction of disposing of society’s dirt=Priceless
I doubt the youths read TheCoast or this section. Given they were throwing pennies, we can rule out anyone from South End Halifax or the other affluent neighbourhoods…..those kids throw silver dollars. Might want to check Spryfield or Sackville, or Preston if you feel brave.
I HATE IT WHEN DOGS SHIT ON MY LAWN!
I hope those dogs read this post and STOP!
*eyeroll*
It was probably at Hfx mall in which case these kids live in the west end and the pubs.
I hope the OP goes and speaks to the head mall people about this issue. And I hope your babe is okay.
I work in the HFX shop and this bitch doesn’t surprise me at all.
The Jr. High next door lets out for lunch/after school and the mall turns into a zoo of unsupervised monsters yelling, screaming and generally causing a giant headache for anyone in their path.
Security does try and curb the wild behavior but there are only so many of them VS the packs of children.
Most of the kids who get in trouble frequently are known by security and if I was the OP I would ask to see the tapes from the incident and hopefully they are recognized and banned.
Shouldn’t there be secuirty cameras in this area that could be of assistance?
Never Wrong. Use a hammer to crack open the skulls of these pieces of shit to find what remains they have left for a brain. I’ve also have metal coat hangers if you need them.
LIFE SUCKS. Like your smelvin comment. These kids will reek havok on the tax payers for court costs in the future.
Dr. Fever. Love the Quote. Also “The shit winds are blowing, Randy.”
I’d take some of the comments advice and try to lay charges via security footage or what not.
I would at least go the media for the small chance that the kids attention is brought to the serious of this matter, and maybe, just maybe, they would feel guilty and stop doing it.
Aw fuck…..this kind of bitch I do not like reading….. I really hope that your little girl is OK and that she makes a complete recovery. I often wonder how I would react if anyone (kid or not) did something to harm my daughters. I am sure those kids are lucky they were not in a closer proximity. I agree with the possibility of a lawsuit mentioned in one of the previous comments. There may have been nothing the mall could have done about it (obviously for that one incident) it can be used as an example and they could tighten their policies about kids hanging out there on their own. Seriously, I would love to have a reason to beat the living shit out of a punk teen and claim I acted out of defense for my own child. Take that asshole kid- and bring your asshole daddy into this as well…….
