    The law is whatever a jury will convict them of and i doubt there is a jury in America that will acquit any of these three.

    I am challenging the ethical decision to charge this shooter as an adult. He obviously has/had awful parents and other challenges. This is why juvenile justice is carved out in the justice system of America.

    REPUBLICAN congressman Thomas Massie has faced a severe backlash after he posted a Christmas photo of his family all posing with firearms, just days after the deaths of four teenagers in the Oxford High School shooting.

    "Merry Christmas! ps. Santa, please bring ammo," US Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky wrote on Twitter.

    No way. There will be at least one pro-2A juror who will see them as political victims. It's already happening on the internet and media

    I must say I never understood why America and only America to my knowledge in the developed world charges children as adults. He is a murdering little demon but he IS a child and all that comes with a developing brain.

    I recall being 13 and hatching a full plan in geography class to use fourteen diesel injectors to flash vaporise a gallon of gasoline into a perfect air-gasoline mix and blow up my school, though on a Sunday to he fair, I only wanted smoking rubble not death. I even had an idea to use a very tall steel catering trolley to focus the charge into a main structural part. I would have blown all the doors and windows out at least, not a huge school.

    I just can't recall why that geography class had me so pissed off but teen brains think teen thoughts.. We all had some weird shit go through our heads some days.

    Its fear of the parents that keep most in check but now the adults are just idiots.

    Eh, weak excuse to brush away 4 dead. The argument can be had whether to charge him as an adult and give him life in prison right off the bat. Or charge him as a minor and give him life in prison to start his sentence in juvie I supposed. The apprehension is likely due to the fact I've never seen life in prison sentences if tried as minors. Though I recall some 8 year old redhead that smashed some little girl's brain in with a rock.

    I think you make a mistake by comparing the guns and ammunition available to you as kid to the guns and ammunition available today. I remember you made the point kids had rifles in the trucks in the parking lot of your high school but a rifle for hunting is not an AR 15. The clips, and I don’t know if clips were available to you as a kid, didn’t hold 15, 30, 50, 100 rounds. The bullets weren’t hollow points that would shred the internal organs of a victim. Guns available today are combat weapons.

    And to the point about the kid searching ammunition in today’s day and age, you better believe that’s a red flag. Hello? Have you read the news in America lately?

  8. marital privilege will certainly be invoked but since the parents posted on social media and there are text messages the police recovered and the testimony of the school staff..... we odnt need the parents to even say shit.... they hung themselves with their own posts and text messages and the kids social media.

    If I were a DA I would not even need the parents to open their mouths to "hang em" and no way a Defense attorney has them testify anyway.

    their only defense is there is no legal obligation to secure the gun in MI that could lead to direct penalties and that they could never have imagined their kid would do this. But in order to plead that defense they will have to testify to it and they are the shittiest witnesses around given their social media history and text messages to their kid.

    The parents are fucked because like all fucktards they display their fucktardedness in texts and social media which speak for themselves and no attorney would allow them to take the stand.

  9. Commit an adult crime get charge as an adult..... the fact that he is 15 is not relevant for this kind of crime. I see no ethical dilemna in challenging a kid who killed four students and injured many others in a calm and cool and collected manner and terrorized an entire school.

    This i not a juvie violation... this is real adult shit and he should die in prison.

  10. Oh pooh. You are getting all your info from the media and trying to understand guns from a soy-boy, city-boy no knowledge perspective.

    The notion that hollow point is somehow a recent military-application bullet only intended to kill people and never used in hunting is an absurd position that comes out of media scripts these days. Hollow points have been around and used in hunting for well over a hundred years.
