Reply to comment by ilikeathesauce in Armed Robbery Outside Eliot-Hine Middle School by AndreTippettPoint

So when that story came out about a 6 year old bringing a gun to school in Virginia, were you rooting for the kid?

Let me guess. The kid’s punishment should only be ‘grounded for the weekend’ since he’s a juvenile and his parents should serve life sentences for attempted murder right?

The gun he used should get the harshest punishment of all since it was the one that caused the harm.

I would have preferred if the teacher had shot the 6 year old. I assume you think the kid shouldn’t be punished

Thank god there's a vast, vast gray area between those two extremes.

Ah yes, the dichotomy of the situation: 1) Kid gets shot or 2) Teacher gets shot.

Certainly no middle ground.
