11 Year-Old Murders 8 Year-Old

Oh yes because children are total angels and too holy for such mature and scary adult things.

My cousin toddler once bit the shit out of me younger brother side because he was spoiled and mad. If anything he should have had a TV cable smacked around his pampered ass.

Children do not know right from wrong. They rely on adults to teach them such things. Child abuse is a way of teaching children, if you want to teach them that they are unimportant, that it's acceptable to use violence to teach "lessons", and that we should harm those who are smaller and weaker than us. It's a terrible thing to teach a child.

You have a point, unless you consider speaking and general discipline child abuse. I was spanked for every wrong thing I did when I was small, and it taught me not to lie, steal and other things. I've noticed that in pampered households where children aren't disciplined for wrong doing, children do tend to be more spoilt (like the aforementioned example).

If it weren't a gun, he'd have just strangled her, poisoned her, beaten her, stabbed her ext... People seem to forget violent crimes that result in death that did NOT involve a gun happen all the time. The media just doesn't feast upon those stories as a way to stir up controversy.

I'm more concerned as to WHY an 11 year old child was driven to murder than the weapon/method of choice.

Bullshit dodge. Other bad shit happens so do nothing about guns.

True, you're spot on. That's like saying everyone should be allowed to carry nuclear weapons because you can still commit genocide with a toothpick.
