I wouldn't call him a badass.The kid is just emulating his environment. This is all he knows.
Most likely. At that age, he really has no concept of what he actually did. A lot of kids that age are not real clear on Right/Wrong & the impact of their actions upon others. It's just a sad thing all of the way around.The kid is just emulating his environment. This is all he knows.
You get dis'd, you shoot back. Standard response.The kid is just emulating his environment. This is all he knows.
I don't know if you can remember when you were his age, but still do. I knew right from wrong and knew damned well that I wouldn't touch a gun unless my old man handed it to me.Most likely.

What hog season is this? Groundhogs are never out of season and your just going to piss off the porky ones with a .22.I don't know if you can remember when you were his age, but still do. I knew right from wrong and knew damned well that I wouldn't touch a gun unless my old man handed it to me.
This kid learned this at home or on the street. The authorities need to look at his family/home very closely and see where he learned this behavior and how he had access to a firearm. I'm finished with the idea is this is just the way it is and we must accept it. It's time to build larger jails/prisons and see that they're used. As for the child, there was always the threat of reform school if you didn't know how to act.
We need to segregate the criminal element from those who know how to act civilized and get along with others. It was called Special Ed when I went to school and we didn't have gun violence in our classrooms, that was reserved for the FFA boys and a .22 single shot rifle out behind the school during "hog" season .
The hogs we raised out back at Cow Pie High. Season was when it got cold enough to kill 'em.What hog season is this? Groundhogs are never out of season and your just going to piss off the porky ones with a .22.
All of the above could be replaced with a paddle and a principal willing to wield it.There is no mention of a School Counselor on this website, and the Psychologist, Social Worker, Law enforcement Officer and Security Guard are only "part-time".

After reading the story, I realized badass was used in the context of "Badass Bebe's Kids"...I wouldn't call him a badass.
I worked "inside the Beltway" in a Title 1 poverty school in PG County for 20 years. Before that, I worked for 18 years as part of a Residential Treatment facility for emotionally disturbed boys, ages 12-18, from most counties in Maryland, Baltimore City, and DC. Most were dually handicapped and had legal/psychiatric issues. So, yes, I am familiar with "the Hood" in PG, DC, and Baltimore City.Have you ever set foot in a 'hood?
Hell, have you even driven close enough to one to look down the street and see what's taking place once these Shining Beacons of Society get off of the bus?
Most likely, the adults in his 'hood have already told him that what he did WASN'T wrong. He's in a fight for his survival and he gotta do what he gotta do...This kid isn't a kid in his hood. He's a "lil *****"...he's a "soulja"...hell, he probably just made the rank of Lieutenant.

And most likely, judging from your postings, you haven't got a clue about the reality of this kid's life...
