I gotta say I never understood the whole not trying them as adults thing.
I get that kids brains aren't fully developed and that can lead them to do some morally apprehensive things but that just sounds like a bullshit excuse. That's an excuse meant to be used for shit like stealing a candy bar or mild vandalism not beating someone to death.
Honestly I think the parents of the child should also end up with legal ramifications. You raised a piece of shit now you get to deal with the consequences.
Every kid who commits adult crimes should be charged as an adult.
What about the case of a 10yo killing its abusive neo nazi father? Does the child fully understand the consequences of what it did, or did it just want the abuse to stop?
That child got as many years jailtime as it was old at the time of the killing.

I think we can all agree that killing Nazis is never a crime.
Also, if he was being abused, that’s self defense. What he needed was a better lawyer.
Holy shit that was heavy. Master race indeed...
