Vandalism, trespass, and simply wrongheaded. No one’s talking about criminal charges against children–but as for adults acting like jackasses with other people’s homes in this manner it absolutely is criminal, and I say stiff penalties are great.

Just make the group clean up the mess and the parent pay for the damages plus community service/probation time. And let this be a lesson(s), don’t buy 100 rolls of toilet paper at one time with a group of kids on a weekend and posse for pictures afterwards. You gotta blend in with the crowd and not draw attention. That and skip the condiments. Oops, I meant to say “Rolling” a house is vandalism and if caught one could face jail time and forced to pay restitution…that and Texas has Castle Laws. So don’t do it.
