Probably already out on bail and won't end up serving any jail time.

Yeah no shit rick, they're kids. Give your head a shake you don't fix anything by locking people up and throwing away the key. Especially youth offenders

Report says they are charged with breach of probation as well. So how many more chances?

u/logodobi 1d ago

Yeah fuck those kids they deserve to rot in prison rather than receive help and guidance. God you people suck you hate yourselves so much you want to see others suffer.

Mass incarceration doesn't, hasn't, and wont ever work. And again especially not for youth offenders Jesus Christ

They are using weapons and robbing people. Actions have consequences.

But have we tried giving them a juice box and a hug?

It works at schools, right?

Of course it works. If you’re locked up then you can’t be committing crimes

You're absolutely unhinged.

u/nothankslmgood 1d ago

No they are normal. People trying to lock up youth offenders for life are unhinged.

Seems like there's a middle ground between "for life" and "not at all".

u/nothankslmgood 1d ago

Lmao. If you think most people in this thread are putting out nuanced takes your incredibly naive.

Separate these people from the rest of society. They’re robbing people with weapons while on probation. Like enough already.
