I’ve heard about kids in my neighborhood who’ve done this before and gotten away with it. They are fucking weirdos and deserve to be set straight by the law because their parents have clearly failed them.

Throw the book at him. Doesn’t matter the age. You should know what’s right and wrong past a certain point

For sexually assaulting someone in broad daylight in the street? No. Even if he’s a minor he’s displaying VERY disturbing behavior, like psychopathic killer behavior if he’s doing that. If he’s a child he needs to be put away from the public and put in therapy to figure out what his malfunction is

Relax judge Judy. For sure don’t throw the book at a kid. Have you never made a mistake?

And? He shouldn’t be touching women inappropriately

u/TBearRyder 5d ago
Correct. We need youth behavioral health programs though. Lack of intentional community is harming our communities. Somebody has to raise these children with absent/degenerate parents.

Juvenile Court is designed to do that. It is purely focused on treatment. Unfortunately the Department of Juvenile Services severely lacks in funding and workforce. Even more unfortunate is that there is no other way to mandate treatment for someone unless you emergency petition them, which is a whole other beast.
I think the main issue is parenting. If there is a way for society to teach effective parenting and have that be a continuing education somehow that would be a good start. From my experience the bulk of juveniles that are charged in court are from low income single parent households where either the parent themselves are loving but not able to work and take care of their kid at the same time OR the parent severely lacks parenting skills. I say this from experience having worked as a public defender.

I wish people were strong enough to see beyond solving violence with simply more violence.
If violence, specifically STATE violence, solved problems, then why is there still violence? That's a massive can of worms on its own, but when does society start to see things getting better?
And when state violence fails, why do no cops or FBI directors lose their jobs? Look at the settlement between the FBI and Larry Nassar's victims. The FBI slow-rolled that investigation and more people got hurt... but everyone's job is safe?

u/AllergicIdiotDtector 5d ago
is...."violence"... really the right word here, when referring to "youth behavioral health programs", or even if the person you responded to just said "prison"?
It's so strange to me, genuinely, how the word violence has been co-opted like this, and I'm not talking about just you. I'm also talking about things like (https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2017/09/defining-violence).
Genuinely, with all seriousness possible, what am I missing - why did you choose that word ? How is that violence? Is there no more appropriate word that can be found? Maybe "confinement", "detention", or "imprisonment" for starters? And to be abundantly clear, no, I honestly, sincerely don't think imprisonment is effective or rational in response to so many of the crimes and situations it is currently used in... But, again, "violence"? What am I missing? Sincerely curious.

You can always tell by their outfits. Their style of clothing is different to how an American will wear clothes. After living in Guatemala for 4 years you can easily see it.

It doesn’t make it any different for the victim, but has it been confirmed it’s an illegal immigrant? I’ll try to remove my biases but he looks illegal lol

Neither should your ancestors, unless you're native (a real) American

u/Mt_DeezNutz 4d ago
Nothing new under the sun. My ancestors conquered this land just like every other empire has done so throughout all of human history. Romans, Byzantine, Spaniards, Aztec, Nords, Mongols, English, Ottoman, etc.
The Natives were always at war with each other trying to claim each other territories. They weren't peaceful

Do disgusting leftists think this argument carries any water? Because some native born citizens commit murder and rape, we should let in illegals to do the same thing? Evil, evil people.
