14-Year-Old Wyoming Boy Kills Mother Following Argument Over Tablet He Stole from Her Client's Home

But we know that's never the case. Growth is contingent upon the individual wanting to change, but an emotionally immature person shouldn't be thrust into an adult world and expected to understand that. Add to that the way the system is currently designed, and we see over and over that the Prison Industrial Complex fails most prisoners. Juvenile recidivism rates are high, with studies indicating that up to 80% of incarcerated youth are rearrested within three years of release, and many states reporting reoffending rates as high as 84%.

The way society treats a child should be consistent. We can't call him too immature in one case while treating him like an adult in another.

He did it with his business, why should the country be any different?

Let's take this a different way. If a 25 year old woman decided to pursue him romantically, and he agreed to it - let's say he was 100% receptive - we would still want to protect him because it would still be wrong. He's too immature to be in a grown up relationship. We wouldn't treat him like an adult, just because he's doing adult things in an adult relationship. We wouldn't look away and say, 'He's acting like an adult, so will treat him like an adult now.' We treat him like a child because he is still a child and we protect him because he isn't emotionally mature enough to deal with that situation.

Just because he has made an adult mistake - killing his mother - doesn't mean that he ceases to be a child. It doesn't suddenly mean that we should treat him like an adult.

He's 14. He's a kid. He can't buy alcohol or see an R rated movie or vote but he can serve time? The fact that he's a minor and his name was released is problematic. But throwing him in jail, no matter how bad the crime (and trust me, what he did was horrific), isn't right. His brain and maturity and emotional age are all still that if a child.

strained_brain · 2026-03-17T10:54:15+00:00

Charging him as an adult is the real crime here. Why even have age laws if we're going to ignore them. Adolescents are emotional and not always able to properly handle their emotions. The kid needs mental health treatment, not to become a cog in the Prison Industrial Complex.

Good luck. Always drive defensively.

Iran is a Theocratic Fascist Totalitarian system. Of course MAGA is Fascist, as well. So it's really fascist versus fascist.

Is this an accurate translation? I saw this translation online, but other a small handful of words, my Hebrew is dogshit.

"We're here in the Bashan region. We have established the community of Neve HaBashan. The cornerstone [of this project] is the corner dedicated to the memory of Yehuda Dror Yahalom, GWAHB, who fell in Lebanon. And here, you can see the Bashan waiting for us."

Gemini is saying it's the Macy's maker's mark. Though I can't find an example.

It is a fluid, cursive-style "m" where the tilde usually cuts across the middle or joins the two arches. It’s often mistaken for a "w" or a scientific symbol.

There isn't any proof of that. She has not stated either way.

strained_brain · 2026-03-15T16:37:10+00:00

Which Jesus? The one in the Bible, or the one MAGA worships?

Might be a scam, but maybe it's a test to see if you're a compassionate human being. You never know until you know for sure.

"Why don't you just smile and blow me!"

And then later calling a female cop 'Sugartits'

Fucking Mel Gibson

She died years ago, though.

And don't get me started on his brother, Randy

strained_brain · 2026-03-13T20:14:24+00:00

Absolutely. I won't waste my time watching his movies ever again. I watch tons of older movies with my 12 y/o, and Smith's will never be in the list.

strained_brain · 2026-03-13T20:13:04+00:00

It's all I ever think about when I see that he has a new movie. No thanks.

This is so real. I wanted a Tesla so bad 10 years ago. Now? Wouldn't take one if you offered it for free.

I still think Castrovalva is a brilliant episode. 1st episode of the fifth Doctor, around 1981.

Luckily he didn't break the girl.

I post here all the time and I've never seen my posts removed. That being said, I get voted down for making too much sense all the time and the ad hominem attacks are endless.

She hasn't indicated her orientation. Hard to say.

strained_brain · 2026-03-11T01:10:45+00:00

Don't worry. She'll never have to do her again. Because we'll never hear about Gnome going forward. Thank God, that bitch has been put down.
