They are not all 4 feet tall and 70 lbs. They are not crying for their mommy or hiding from bullies. The judge chose to charge him as an adult. Not anyone can simply become a judge and make bad decisions. They can look 20 years old and be violent and deceitful. They can be malicious. Consider a 13 year old boy who is 4 feet and 70 lbs. who is in juvenile corrections because he threw a rock through a neighbors window. Do you want that child to be locked up with a violent bank robber? Give the kid 20 years and let the governor and the pardon board decide if he can get out early. Don't allow him to corrupt children to make them worse so he can get out at 21 and commit more crimes. People have a misconception of what a 13 year old boy looks like and is capable of.

You ,as a parent cannot discipline him by giving him a painful slap on the butt, they will accuse you of child abuse . Yet, teenagers are given every right to abuse their parents and other members in society. They grow up thinking that they are immune and that they can do whatever they want, in other words they think they can get away with anything they commit.A few years ago, one of my students who would not remain silent in class, nor would he be tasteful enough to listen to me looked me in the face and said F*** you infront of everyone in class. I literally raised him off the ground by his throat and told him that I would never allow something like that in my class, and that next time he utters something like that he's going to swallow his teeth. Now I am a violent man by nature, but someone has to say STOP ! If they cannot control their tongues and hands their natural place is in jail. We have heard many stories of bullies in school, and in the neighborhood streets, and we have heard about crimes committed by those bullies. Control them while they are kids or bear the consequences.

".. ur (your) twisted, vindictive an(d) sadistic minds...blah, blah and more blah" ??? Are you kidding us? It's those with the twisted and sadistic minds that have driven caring parents to protect their offspring, by NOT letting them out of their sight for fear of the worst happening. Gone are the days when you could, as a child, leave the house in the morning and be gone ALL day, roaming the neighbourhood with friends etc. and not return until nightfall. Why....? Because the pervs, paedo's and murderers have had increasingly lenient sentences, opportunities for plea-bargains, or even worse, been presumed innocent due to technicalities explolited by slick lawyers, regardless of past transgressions. You only have to look at your recent Jaycee Dugard situation for an example of ineptitude and lack of follow-up. Garrido, a miscreant already connected to & cleared of the assault of a 14 year old girl, then imprisons and repeatedly violates another woman some 4 years later, but actually gets convicted this time...not-so-slick lawyer couldn't pull the wool over the jury's eyes.. Following interviews and being labelled as a sexual deviant, you would think that close tabs would have been placed upon him post release, but no, this f**ker got his chance to STRIKE AGAIN and commit the most despicable crimes toward a child. For a continuous 18 years........ Should we pander and wrap up in cotton-wool, those who have constantly proven that they have no drive or desire to conform to normal societal rules, in the hope that they DON'T turn out to be the next Jeffrey Dahmer, Phillip Garrido, or other monsters who have preyed upon our children.....or do we nip it in the bud and protect the majority who are totally innocent? Answer this one..... If you have a particular affinity and craving for something and are unable to get it, for whatever reason, does the craving subside or increase?? These monsters may get segregated for a small period of time, but guess what they are thinking of? The earlier the opportunity that arises to separate them from normal society, the better. This kid has a proven track record for non-comformist behaviour....let the chips lie. He's no good and will continue to be no good throughout his adult life. If you think otherwise, sponsor him, take him under your roof and be a mentor, take responsibility for his actions.....would you be willing to do that? Thought so..... @Disgusted…

I thought my last sentence gave me away. But age of reasoning does not mean that you can tell right from wrong either. It means that you develop the skill to reason (deduct) between 2-7. But being able to argue has nothing to do with being morally stable. Of course I don't think that a 7 year old child is fully developed, but neither is a 13 year old. You are basicly proving my point: 13 year olds are neither wise nor fully aware of the consequences their actions cause, plus their hormones are making them crazy. That is exactly why they are not allowed to do what adults do. And that is why we can't judge them like we judge adults. I know that it is not the same – my last post was a parody.

Suggesting that a child at that age have sex or smoke or drink clearly shows that you think the age of reasoning is the same as the age of adulthood. It's not the same. @Nielow : simply put, the age of reasoning is the age that an average intelligent child can deferentiate between right and wrong.

He's not 6. There were plenty of options this boy could of taken and instead he chose to rob a bank. I STRONGLY disagree with "sending him to hell" but do believe he should be tried as an adult. Too many stupid kids to stupid things because they have this mentality that they are underage and wont get punished.. At 13 a majority of people are starting to make adult choices, getting pregnant, doing hard drugs.. Dropping out of school, joining gangs.. etc 21 years is not enough in my opinion. Wether life at home was horrid or not- it was a choice ONE human being made instead of perhaps going to a shelter or seeking help through any means. He’s 13. He’s not 6.
