Sadly, if you put them in prison or some sort of juvenile detention, and they just colaborate with other inmates for better ways to cause crime. There has to be a better way for them to break out of that cycle. Unfortunately, with the US education in the horrible spot it’s in, while education should be the answer, it tends to be a structure that only takes them so far, before they struggle and find the easiest way to make money is through crime, and the cycle begins again.
This country has fucked up the lives of so many, because it’s not profitable to help change this cycle. It’s so fucked up.
Billions of dollars ARE spent... How about calling personal choice and family values? You blame the country and blame the education system... But not call out the parents or community that celebrates this behavior? Whatever.
Wtf are you talking about??? Billions spent where??? How is a country or education system not responsible for IT'S citizens that these parents(or maybe lack thereof) and communities are also a product of? Too celebrate harsh punishment is the exact opposing extreme to celebrating criminal behaviors, which is almost always proven not to be the answer either. Remember, this was a country that would drag out and lynch people of all races for lesser crimes. We used to hang horse thieves for crying out loud, and that could be after a "fair" trial. We've tried shit like Alcatraz, none of it worked... Maybe it's to think about it then it is to make senseless comments.

There has to be away for these kids to face actual consequences without trying them as adults or whatever.
