There should be no such thing as "tried as a juvenile". Make adult decisions, get adult punishments. Remember, he doesn't feel bad that he killed someone, he is upset/sad because he knows he is getting hard time and not going to get release in 2 years when he turns 18.

From the post:

>A 16-year-old boy let out a keening wail as he collapsed in court after being told he would be tried for murder as an adult and denied bail. Sean Simpson is charged with the shooting murder of 16-year-old Zaquavious Dawkins last month in Gastonia, North Carolina. The alleged teen killer broke down in court, sobbing and screaming as he learned he would not be released on bail and will have to face the law as an adult. Simpson began wiping his eyes as the judge could be heard saying 'hold without bond,' footage obtained by QueenCityNews shows. The teenager, whose wrists were cuffed together, then staggered to one side as he began to faint.

That sounds so typical.

The court did the right thing. Here, gypsies took note that non-adults are basically given a free pass to crime and they have been fully taking advantage of it. You can see gangs of 10yo gypsies attacking and robbing the elderly and guess what, there are no consequences.

Police arrested Simpson two days later at a center for children with emotional and behavioral difficulties where he was receiving treatment.

Attributing criminal behavior to 'emotional and behavioral difficulties' is usually a way to avoid confronting the fact that certain populations have a tendency to such behavior.

That is exactly why I say there should not be different "laws/punishments" for Adults and "children". If the punishment is too great, nearly no one will be willing to commit the crime. Gang's use this tactic all of the time to kill rivals since they will get thrown in juvi until they are 18 then they are out. Not the life (or death) sentence they should be getting.

Adult decisions require adult punishments. I don't fucking care how old you are.
