Prosecute the parents. They know they raised a shit kid. This is not an accident but a consequence.
He is 20yo. He s not a child. You don't emprison people because their adult kid did some shit
You are saying nonsense
It was a parents unsecured weapon used in that shooting. So yes, they should be held responsible.
on the basis "serious negligence leading to death", yes I agree with you. but not "because they re his parents"
Of course. But the point was that just because he is an adult, his parents are not excluded from being at fault. Their fault is the neglience, at least before the law.
That it takes f-ed up parents to rise a f-ed up kid is another matter.
Oh yeah i see now. Ha! who said two people can never agree on Internet, even when started with what seemed like opposite sides.
Some are faster, some are slower at growing up and fixing grown up at is 18 is a legal compromise. He might well have been still a kid.
Even a 10 year old knows murder is wrong.
I didn't mean that as an excuse for murder. Maybe his parenting was shit or whatever.
His mom is a cop
And he killed with her gun. Twice as bad. Send her to prison for unvoluntary manslaughter.
Involuntary Manslaughter, but agreed. The bigots that raise these bigoted monsters must be held accountable. They should also be prosecuted for being domestic threats to the constitution. I'm being entirely serious.
This bigoted shooting is the end result of the entire lack of intolerance being stamped out the way it has to be.
It's an interesting idea I don't necessarily disagree with, but while we're adding more people to our prison system, what other offenses are eligible?
