A youngster was caught on surveillance camera video holding up a Michigan gas station as he demanded the money from the cashier. Footage sees the skinny 12-year-old waiting calmly in line in the town of Hartford, with his hand in his backpack as a customer in front of him pay for gas. When he reaches the front of the line he whips out a 9mm handgun from his black bag and demands money. 'Put the money in the bag!' the boys states calmly. The cashier appears incredulous at the request initially and asks him, 'Are you serious?'

Try Billie the Kid as an adult. Armed robbery. He knew what he was doing.

I say stick him in the adult pokey and let him take a good look at his future. He looks like he come from the neighborhood with the Country Club!

Do the crime, do the time. I don't care how old this little creep is. About ten or fifteen years in prison is about right, and none of this 'juvy' baloney, summer camp and out with a clean record in a year.
Hard time, adult prison, LONG time. He could have easily killed her, has zero concern for human life.

How old is this story? Gas (as seen in one of the photos) has not been $2.99 for more than a year!!

#5 - The photo of the exterior is a street view from Google Maps, obviously taken more than a year ago. Good catch, though.

I wonder how long it took the editors of the DM to find a story about some white kid pulling a stick-up with a gun? From the tells in the accompanying photos, this happened at least a year ago; wouldn't be surprised if it was even longer. But we gotta be equitable, don't we? I mean, it was becoming tiresome and repetitive watching all the articles in which some black perp shoots up some "house party," or a "gun violence funeral vigil" or beats up a random Asian victim. America: the great Melting Pot.

Nothing in the story about arresting whatever adult let this 12-year-old wannabe Jesse James get his hands on a gun.

In the news because they're looking for examples of white gun violence. Propaganda.
Look to see what motivated the kid. Is he normally antisocial? Were his parents or guardians having financial difficulty? Or did he simply want something, and they told him it was too expensive?
Also, look for drugs or similar influence. Kids are fairly simple in worldview. Doing something like this usually requires some maniulation by an adult. Be interested to discover what THEIR angle was.

I have taught middle school for over 20 years. I have dealt with the likes of this boy many, many times. I will tell you why he did it: Because he wanted to.
The number one response to anything that indicates personal responsibility for an action is “I don’t know.” It’s the lie they tell themselves in order to convince the rest of the world that they have no direct responsibility for their choices and actions.
The legal system will allow him to get away with it. So will the so-called mental health professional who will coddle him and give all the common excuses about why the child is the way he is. None of them will ever assert the pressure necessary for the little dregg to come to the correct conclusion that he did it because he wanted to do it.
This is why America is crumbling at its foundations. The foundation is weak and growing weaker.

I wonder where our children are getting the idea that this behavior is ok. I'm thinking a lot of things but the destruction of the family is the first thing that comes to mind.

Little savage.
Who is the bigger threat? A 12 year old armed robber or a 22 year old armed robber? My money is on the 12 year old. They likely have no idea of the consequences of their actions and have fewer inhibitions about shooting someone.

Re #9, that's a pretty wrong headed approach, IMO.

Not a PEEP about D'Shwyanneee's ethnicity as he robs the white clerk.
But they did not pixellate his entire head in the still photo. One can see the 'nappy' hair.
Had it been reversed, it would have been the First word in the Headline.
"WHITE 12-year-old robs...."

RE #19:
Another closer look at the photo might be in order. Those look like Caucasian hands holding that weapon.
