        This is a perfect example of the noncentral fallacy. When you say ‘school shooter’ what comes to mind is a sixteen year old sociopath murdering a dozen people in a planned terrorist attack, not a six year old who is incapable of understanding the consequences of his actions.

          You mean the Truth…kid in school shoots teacher…text book definition of school shooting…“school shooter” is an individual who opens fire in a school setting, causing injury or death to at least one person. These events can occur in elementary, middle, or high schools, and colleges or universities, and are a type of active shooter situation. Definitions can vary, with some criteria focusing on the location and timing of the shooting, and others including incidents at school-sponsored events, even if they are not during regular school hours.

        Mental facilities really aren’t very good. He will have a better chance of turning his life around while living in a home, with a family, and recieving mental health therapy.

        Wow, you are scum to write off a child’s entire life like that. Yeah, you’re definitely an American “Christian conservative” (quoting another of your comments from elsewhere). I’m writing you off - it’s a shame you didn’t get the same treatment you’re advocating when you were a kid.

        Housing in a “mental facility” (at least here in the US) would make that outcome all but certain. The kid needs regular assessment and help from professionals, sure. With a loving home and safe caregivers through the rest of childhood it will be possible for him to recover and reconcile with his actions, so I hope that’s what he’s getting.
