raising Cain

Because Cain was the first murderer in the Bible, having killed his brother Abel, people use the expression "raising Cain" to describe acts of violence, criminal activity, or any other mischievous acts.

raising cane

Refers to either:
(1) Cultivating tropical sucrose-producing grass.
(2) What da courts in many parts of da world have outlawed when it comes to disciplining children --- it's "time-outs only" nowadays, Folks.
Some people argue dat laws which prohibit "raising CANE" often cause youngsters to be ABLE to misbehave as much as they want. I disagree; most kids start out being inherently good; it's us adults who are da major influence on them to be bad with our OWN improper behavior and impatient disregard for said small-fry's needs and concerns. If we gave our children the care and attention they need, they would actually **want** to be good all the time.

Raising hell

Usually occurring on a Friday night after a long work week, this term refers to driving around with your friends doing absolutely nothing because you aren't old enough to get into bars and there's nothing better to do 'round these parts. This activity is most common among teens from rural communities and small towns who mislabel it as "raising hell" to make their lives sound less dull and more badass. Though "raising hell" is often more boring than badass, it is sometimes known to include SERIOUS badass activities, such as loitering, underage drinking, running red lights, and even swerving a couple feet into a cornfield just to be an asshole!
In the big city, it's called "driving around aimlessly" and it makes you boring. In the country, it's called "raising hell" and it makes you BADASS.
