Reply to comment by debyrne in 15 year old arrested for eight carjackings by Swampoodle1984

There is no abstract socioeconomic circumstance that forces a teenager to commit multiple violent carjackings. It is learned behavior.

Also learned >> anyone with an understanding of learning/education will tell you setting matters so yeah he learned this from??? Society?! And i dunno man but society definitely is effected by things like wealth inequality and lack of resources for the mentally I’ll

But yeah go Ahead and Believe we are all innocent and this kid is just bad inherently and he should just be locked in prison so you can feel better about not wanting to force change in society to raise better children.

But yeah dog. It’s all on him and his parents let’s not think any further than that

He learned it from parents, friends, peers, or violent criminals he sees in the media and has been taught to respect and mimic.

99% of people in society aren’t violent carjackers.

You’re right it’s just this kid. All by himself. It’s his fault.

Were you not capable of reading a list of people who are responsible for influencing the kid's behavior? Or did you deliberately decide to ignore it?
