Totally, if you stab someone (intentionally), you should be in jail.

If you read the links in the article, this kid was taken into custody but police are not commenting on what they plan to charge them with. I imagine, partly due to laws preventing the criminal record of minors being made public information. Just guessing at that last part though.

Not in 2022! Now you just get asked nicely not to. And if you do it again? We will ask you sternly. A third time? We’re gonna tell your parents!!!

We had a 17 year old steal nearly 85 cars and do a couple car jackings. He did another carjacking a week after turning 18 and he’s doing a 5 year bid.

I’m gonna have to agree with you.

Stabbing/shooting someone is a line that everyone knows you don’t cross.

It’s not a push, a shove, or even a punch.

You stab someone, or you pull a gun in school…that ought to always be your last day in any public school setting.

Yeah america should double down on how it differs from every safe Western democracy. It’s clearly born out fantastic results.

Is this common in those areas? Are they shanking the shit out of each other over there in those homogeneous relatively tiny nations with almost zero similarities to the United States?
