Imagine how fucked and shitty your life has to be, to be a 12 or 13 year old trying to carjack people.
The article links to another article and identified it with the boy who was killed. He went on a one night crime spree brandishing a gun and carjacking two cars and assaulting another in a failed carjacking. It's a crazy world.
That's not normal behavior, it's just sad. Society is failing
Well it's because gun stores in America sell nukes to fetuses without a background check because capitalism is bad.
It's worth noting that DC largely had its gun problem under control until the supreme Court told them they weren't allowed to enforce effective gun violence prevention laws.
how often does this sort of thing happen versus 20 years ago
We did some pretty fucked up things when I was a teenager and while our lives did suck, the risky choices and crime were from being young and stupid, not poverty.
Having nothing to lose is a hell of a thing
Being in prison or the juvenile court system is rarely an improvement regardless of how much your life sucks.
Imagine how many people have shitty lives and don't carjack people at 12.
Imagine how many people have refrained from writing a wholier than thou comment about a 12 year old child
Sorry, i have shitty childhood disorder, couldn't help it.
Some shitty 12 and 13 year old kids have great childhoods and are just shitty.
not everyone gets a decent childhood
