Too much TV. Too much rap music. Too much bad parenting. Wonder where his dad is? In jail for armed robbery maybe?

Can't wait to see his rap sheet by the time he's 18 - and about that time he will be shot by a cop and the media will raise a storm about what a good kid he was.

We just had a discussion on this in one of my defense classes - what do you do if you are attacked by a kid? Those clerks did a good job, but it could have easily gone south.

Left a firearm accessible to a kid. Mom owns 100% of the blame.

At least we don't have the amount of crazy people that Florida does. We don't have the woman who called 911 because McDonald's ran out of chicken nuggets.

Serious now, what are the odds the firearm was legally owned?

well the kid's got serious street cred, I'll give him that. He's well on his way to being dead before 16.

Only a matter of time before Al Sharpton and BLM people are on the scene.

Give us all a break here. Why do I think that when you ask an 8-year-old why they did something wrong that the answer will be anything other than, "I dunno"?

Or my favorite, "I didn't do it, my hand/foot/arm did it! But son, aren't you in control of your hand/foot/arm?
Nooo daddy, it did it all on it's own...

"He is really a good boy who is trying to turn his life around, and he wants to go to college !'

Isn't that the standard response in these situations ?
