Laredo has been experiencing some Christmas-like weather and we're in store for much colder temperatures over night, but for some people that doesn't matter.
Hundreds are expected to camp out in front of the Laredo Entertainment Center Friday night to buy tickets to the Lil’ Wayne concert.

There is nothing so sad than to watch hundreds of people including our youth braving the cold to see a future convict. There is nothing to idolize in those two before or after jail. I really do not understand why someone or parents would choose to buy their kids a ticket to see such an awful role model like Lil Wayne or TI. Are we not trying to steer them off into the right path? That’s not the right message to send to our kids.

What a role model, Lil Wayne—also facing felony drug possession and weapons charges in Arizona from 08. Unfortunately this will only increase his street cred and his return will be a big PR event.

Call me crazy but is TI, guy that -- just a year ago -- owned the types of weapons you normally only see in Grand Theft Auto really the best person to be talking to kids about the dangers of guns? Honestly.... a silencer is not for PROTECTION.. If the moron wants those guns he should move to a state that sells them legit. No one is above the law.

Way to go - LEC going to the bottom of the barrel booking a future convict & a bad role model for Laredo youth.

Dont be fraters. He's just an artist. Our kids will not become drug dealers or gangsters just because they listen to his music. It is up to us parents to teach are kids, to guide our children to be good outstanding citizens.The people I know who have lead a poor choose in life are like that because that is what they were taught by their parents plain and simple.

It's time for parents to take responsibility for how their children are and stop putting the blame on everyone else

SOME OF THIS KIDS WHO LINE UP TO GET TICKETS ARE THE SAME KIDS THAT DO NOT WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL BECAUSE ITS COLD OR RAINING. PRIORITYS ARE IN THE WRONG PLACE. WHAT ABOUT THE PARENTS WHO ALLOWED THIS.

I'm so upset at this community... they wonder why kids don't want to go school, why they don't want to work... they want to party, drink and drugs.... LO OK at the entertainment that you are bringing to this town... this guy got held by the border patrol...he is going to jail for God knows what ina couple of months..and it's ok to have him entertaining our KID? I dont think so...this is very sad...makes me want to leave this town and never come back
