[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree with everyone on this thread. IMO these kids should be charged as adults and punished for committing murder. But the point isn't revenge or justice for the killed biker. The point is to protect other potential victims, either further of victims of these boys or of copy-cat violent boys.

So, yes, these boys brains aren't fully developed, but clemency can't be offered because it will embolden at-risk minors to commit more violent crimes, harming themselves as well as their victims. Think of the violent boys living in your neighborhood, and believe me, they are there. We have a duty to deter them from violence until their brains fully develop too.[/quote]

Agree. And we need consistency across the country. It should not be up to local DAs whether to prosecute crimes. Previous posters have claimed that jail time doesn’t deter crime, but that’s because all of these criminals have friends who did not go to prison for their crimes, so they’re willing to take the risk.[/quote]
