    15 yo with a hoe, vs. 2 “trained”, “fit” men with weapons specifically designed to kill instantly with a twitch of a finger.

    Everywhere else in the world the kid would get a slap on the wrist, parents penalised, settled and sorted.

      Slap on the wrist?

      He spent the day trying to kill everyone around him, and you think he deserves a slap on the wrist?

      Parents penalized? Theit kid tries to kill them, and you’re going to penalize them? The victims?

      Your value system is completely out of whack. Kid is a threat to himself and others, and should have been locked up. Whether as a patient in a psychological institution or an inmate in a correctional facility is an open question, but separation from society and professional supervision is not.

        Yes, lock him up, that’ll fix him! Fucking put him in a solitary, that does wonders to mental stability, scientifically proven!

        Of course he needs to be institutionalised, but I bet to fuck that this didn’t just happened out of thin air and parents were neglecting symptoms. I bet they didn’t want to / couldn’t deal with it because of the insane (no pun) costs associated with it. (only in the USA, of course)

        Either way, shooting down an underage with a sharp stick is barbaric and medieval.
