Due to their ages, they supposedly will not face the death penalty.
Posted via RS Mobile

Yeah, I'm kinda not for the death penalty for 15 year olds...

It was in Death Valley...

Might as well. There is no rehabilitation in the US jail system. The only thing those kids are going to learn in there is how to become harder criminals.

wut. It says faces two charges on top of the murder charge. Its written fairly poorly though. None will get the death penalty though I'd wager.

I blame the parents.

Serious, parenting has gone out the fucking window, it's no wonder kids turn out like this.

idk about that, alot of sociopaths and murderers have fairly normal parents and upbringing. when you have people this fucked, its a good chance theres something inherently wrong with their genetics, cognitive processes, or physiology or some combination thereof

Instead of fingers, I prefer to see another appendage to be cut off instead...

Like Sid Vicious said.

The development of a child is an accumulation of everything.
His parents, friends, tv, brain functions, etc.

And hasn't crime been going down? Shit like this will always happen, no need to beat a dead horse.

There are just some people out there that like to see the world burn.

it may calm all the aggression they seem to have. :lawl:

We already know how ineffective sending them to prison for life would be.

CNN) -- One of the Oklahoma teenagers accused of killing 23-year-old Australian Christopher Lane had previously posted images online showing himself posing with guns and wads of cash.

And three days before what police call the indiscriminate shooting, the suspect, 15-year-old James Edwards Jr., tweeted, "With my n****s when it's time to start taken life's."

Back in April, he tweeted, "90% of white ppl (people) are nasty. #HATE THEM."

Police in the town of Duncan have charged Edwards and Chancey Luna, 16, as adults with felony murder in the first degree, said Kaylee Chandler, a Stephens County court clerk.

Christopher Lane, from Australia, was gunned down in Duncan, Oklahoma, while he was out jogging last week. Police say he was killed by three teens who said they had nothing better to do. Police have now charged the three teens in Lane's death.


Michael Jones, 17, faces two charges: use of a vehicle and discharge of a weapon and accessory after the fact to murder in the first degree.

James Edwards Jr., 15, has been charged as an adult with felony murder in the first degree.

Chancey Luna, 16, has been charged as an adult with felony murder in the first degree.


Michael Jones, their alleged 17-year-old driver, faces two charges: use of a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and accessory after the fact to murder in the first degree.

A judge set bond at $1 million for Jones, while no bond was set for Edwards and Luna, Chandler said.

Police say it was Jones who ultimately told them, "We were bored and didn't have anything to do, so we decided to kill somebody."

Lane was a promising young athlete, living his dream of studying in the United States on a baseball scholarship.

The people of Duncan, an affluent town of less than 25,000 people, welcomed him.

Lane had gone out for a jog, just at the time the teens had decided to find someone to kill, police say.

They drove their car behind him and opened fire, hitting him once in the back, authorities say.

He staggered across the road and fell to his knees, then managed to get up and take a few more steps before collapsing for good.

A woman who saw him struggling called 911. As she waited for an ambulance, the young man started to turn blue.

"If you don't hurry, he's gone," the woman warned.

But it was too late. The ambulance couldn't save Lane. He was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Officer: Teens wanted to be gangsters
Security camera, call to police aided investigation

Immediately after the shooting, witnesses gave police a general description of a black car. Security footage from a nearby Mexican restaurant showed what could have been the car. But hours passed with no sign of whether there would be another killing.

Then, four hours after the shooting, a man called police, saying he could see three juveniles with guns -- and they apparently want to kill someone, said Duncan police Chief Danny Ford.

Officers responded to a home and found the car in a church parking lot across the street from the caller's house. The suspects were inside, and they provided enough information to be arrested.

Two days later, Edwards offered up details of the case, police said. The teens had been inside a house when Lane ran by, and the group decided he'd be the target -- to cure their boredom, Ford says.

Call for U.S. tourism boycott

"It is another example of murder mayhem on Main Street," former Australian Deputy Prime Minister Tim Fischer told CNN's Piers Morgan.

"People thinking of going to the U.S.A. for business or tourist trips should think carefully about it, given the statistical fact you are 15 times more likely to be shot dead in the U.S.A. than in Australia, per capita."

WTF. What happened to, bored and nothing to do, so we decided to play some GTA.
Guess the graphics weren't good enough... :pokerface:

you just answered why they went out and killed someone.

they felt something, and they wanted to do something to feel better. so they did it.

you feel something, and you wanna do something to feel better, so you do it.

same thing.

with your mentality, put into their perspective/situation, you would have killed someone out of boredom too.

you do shit, to make yourself feel better. you want revenge, they want to get out of boredom. the inherit problem is following your primal feelings and not using your head. the same problem occurs in your post about beating them up with no legal repercussions. you are repeating the same mistake they did.

should've waited for GTA V
out so soon too.... :badpokerface:

These type of people might just end up enjoying prison life more than a normal life anyways. They are so engrained with the concept of the life of crime that some people feel more comfortable behind bars. And when they get out, they get so "bored" that they do these type of things just go feel normal again. But I guess we as a society end up having to feed them for the rest of their lives.

theres that and the fact that a lot of these kids are "fuck ups" because their parents are "fuck ups" themselves. its a classic case of "fuck ups" raising "fuck ups". theres way too much of this going on in the states. its mind blowing actually. for that reason, abortions should seriously be funded by the government and free for low income people. these kinds of people having kids are unfit for parenting, they simply cant provide for a child the way one should. oh and the foster care systems in the states dont work worth a damn. a lot of those kids still end up worse off because of abusive foster parents.

i you don't think killing another person for fun is wrong, you shouldn't be allowed out in public.

this isnt even something you need to teach people. these fuckers should be executed immediately.

woah, that's deep brah:notbad:

The world needs discipline dispensed like the above video.

Parents are scared shit-less of child protection services for laying some decent discipline on their kids. No punishment = no fear of committing shit like this.

Isn't that a bit far fetched?
Killing someone or an animal isn't equal to "boredom" or just doing it to feel good.

There are scenarios where killing something/someone is appropriate. ie: self defense, hunting an animal for food, eliminating a threat to society, etc. It's not just because of boredom. By your logic, all those who fought and killed people in WW2 were just doing it because they were bored and they wanted to feel better.
just my .02

Thats a stupid way of looking at it. Eye for an eye . Its only fair game. Not because of boredom

Well, at least now they'll have plenty to do for the next 25-years-to-life.

:seriously: :facepalm:

i don't think you two understood what i said.
