A couple of teens in Philadelphia are about to learn a valuable lesson the hard way: Don’t post a video of yourself doing illegal activities on the Internet.

Uploaded onto YouTube on December 29, “wreck locals fucken shit up” features a group of teens vandalizing public and private property by spray-painting stop signs and smashing windshields on multiple parked cars.

The video isn’t getting much love on YouTube, with the community lampooning their stupidity in the comments section.

The teens have been called “dumb asses,” “jigaboos,” stupid idiots,” “morons,” and “pussies,” just to name a few of the NSFW remarks.

“COPS GONNA WRECK YALL ASSES NOW!! wrote  nikkinizz in the top comment on YouTube.

Indeed. According to the news site Philly.com, cops have already arrested one 16-year-old through anonymous tips.
