Real question... how do you handle an 8yr old with a gun? A 12yr old?


Picturing those kids made me laugh…

“They were large guns, in fact, half the size of the children," she said.”

No arrests will be made after four juveniles snuck into Howell Community Park's pool after hours in July, Baton Rouge Police officials said Thursday.

According to a BRPD spokesperson, the group of eight to 12-year-olds that jumped the fence at the park on July 20 will meet with authorities in the near future.

The spokesperson said that the moment will be a "learning experience" for the children and their parents.

Initial reports of the incident at Howell Community Park said that the children had handguns. BRPD officials now say that the guns were toys.

No worries. The real guns will show up soon enough to ruin everything.

Then, we will blame people who had nothing to do with the crimes. Media, OT moderates will clap and approve of the lie, then the cycle repeats for something else we try to do that's productive for tax paying citizens.

12 year olds don't play with toy guns. They were probably robbing fools with those.

Haha. Their lawyer is concerned the arrests and juvenile court date will traumatize them.

How about the people they pointed the guns at? What about their trauma?

And painting the red tips black is a quick way to get yourself shot by law enforcement. Or anyone for that matter.
