Are you saying that because Arthur Lee was subjected
to periodic timeout's, that that would explain his antisocial
behavior?

Let's have a looksee.

He blinded a young boy, stole a car at the age of thirteen,
assulted a police officer at fifteen, committed several
burglary's and an arson, not to mention brandishing firearms on
many occasions!

Are you claiming that a few timeout's as a child precipitated
this?

Arthur by his own admission, spent a third of his life in the
system, that's either inside or on probation.

Johnny was right, we really can't deal with the truth!

He also wrote some of the best songs, made the greatest records and played amazing shows, don't think these were due to any childhood discipline either...

Obviously whatever discipline he was subjected to as a child didn't work, as is beautifully highlighted by your litany of bad behaviour.

But what do you think made AL what he was? Criminal genes? Lack of a nuclear family? Satanic possession? Lazyitiis? Too much sunshine? Food Additives?

I think we can deal with the truth, it's just which version of it that confuses me....

I have a tendency in life to go with the truth from the person who was actually there at the time and knew it best.
