Underage drinking dangers during graduation season
LONGMEADOW, Mass. (WWLP) – It's graduation season for colleges and high schools, and that normally means graduation parties. Springfield man charged with DUI, wrong-way driving in Enfield While they are a celebration, they can also be dangerous when it comes to underage drinking. The Longmeadow Close Community Coalition has placed lawn signs around the high school to remind students and parents of the dangers of underage drinking. The coalition of Longmeadow for a drug-free community, or the close community, has placed lawn signs around the town, hoping to remind parents and teenagers of underage drinking. Ananda Lennox, Director of Close Community Coalition, told 22News, 'Across the nation, there is always a handful or sometimes more of teen deaths that happen around prom and graduation season. And it almost always inevitably involves alcohol and getting behind the wheel of a vehicle.' Aside from the dangers of drinking and driving, there is also a law in place in 32 states, including Massachusetts, that holds a social host liable if something happens. James Winston, a Northampton Attorney, adds, 'It can be an adult or a minor who is in control of the premises who either furnishes directly or allows alcohol to be consumed on the premises.' But premises doesn't just mean a house or apartment, it can include a hotel room, a rented room in a restaurant, or a boat. Social hosts can face civil and or criminal charges. 'The consequences can be quite dire both civilly, where we see judgments for millions of dollars, and criminally, where up to a year in prison, pay a $2,000 fine, or both,' Winston adds. The coalition also has other initiatives year-round to help educate parents and others in the community, including the 'Safe Homes Network.' Lennox added, 'Parents can sign up for it, and they are just all in agreement that they are not going to allow underage drinking in their homes. If you know your kid is going to a party or get-together, you can look up a name and be like, 'Oh, that family signed the pledge, they are on the same side as I, so I can relax and not worry about them going off to socialize there.' Lennox said they also work to empower parents to make decisions if their child is not listening, such as not paying for their child's car insurance if they are not following their rules. Winston also said that parents or other social hosts shouldn't assume that if someone is involved in an accident under the social host, the homeowner's insurance will cover it. He said many homeowners' insurance policies won't cover it, as drinking under age is a criminal act.

Charlamagne claims he hadn't heard about 'any ruckus or violence' in LA riot until National Guard arrived
Radio host Charlamagne tha God said on Monday that he had not seen evidence that the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles were violent enough to call for bringing in the National Guard. On Saturday, prior to President Donald Trump deploying the National Guard, tear gas was used near Home Depot in Paramount, California, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers were allegedly conducting a raid. Following the raid, a violent protest broke out and several arrests were made for assault on a federal agent, according to U.S. Border Patrol Chief Michael W. Banks. Rioters have also reportedly engaged in throwing large rocks at a motorcade, smashing windows of the Los Angeles Police Department's (LAPD's) headquarters on West 1st Street and setting several cars on fire. California Republicans Slam Newsom, Bass For Letting La Burn With Riots Amid Trump Immigration Blitz Charlamagne, however, claimed to be unaware of such activity, arguing that Trump had fulfilled his "worst" expectations from his critics. "Trump really wasted no time doing the worst of everything folks thought he would," the radio host said. "Like, you can't put the military on protesters. Did I miss something? Were they not being peaceful? Because I didn't hear about any ruckus or violence until the National Guard showed up!" Read On The Fox News App DJ Envy, one of his co-hosts, replied, "I did see one video, I guess it was a protester throwing rocks or bricks at cars as I guess they were agents when they were driving by." "But did that call for the National Guard?" Charlamagne replied. Click Here For More Coverage Of Media And Culture Co-host Morgyn Wood acknowledged that "it got very volatile over there," but still referred to the riot as having been a peaceful protest. "But to your point, I mean, but this isn't the first time he's done this. He did this, you know, back in 2020 following the death of George Floyd and the protest that happened here in Washington D.C., so he's no stranger to calling his own military, his own – the National Guard, in for protesters, as you said, peaceful protesters at that," she article source: Charlamagne claims he hadn't heard about 'any ruckus or violence' in LA riot until National Guard arrived
