I haven't seen a single person disagree with that statement. I agree that one reaps what they sow but how does that pertain to this case and a couple others that you have referenced? This isn't verbatim but you basically said at least one of these kids would probably grow up to be a thug so his death isn't a loss.

IMO, it's truly ignorant to make this huge, baseless, presumptuous leap: "someone who chooses to play with bebe guns, pellet guns, airsoft guns, etc" = "someone who has chosen a life of violent crime and deserves to be killed".

A whole lot of American youth (and adults) -- be they rich, poor, big, small, white, brown, stupid, smart, etc -- play with replica guns (and real ones). Only a fool would suggest that they're all criminals or destined to be violent criminals in so doing.

I pity the fool.
