1. Having been a recent victim of rocks thrown at my car

by what i saw were TEENAGERS, i have absolutely no compassion for what this 14 year old went through because i could have clearly been killed by this attack! When you're driving a car and rocks are thrown at it, the force is DEADLY, maybe even worse than a bullet because the rock is larger! And young people have a lot more energy to do DEADLY ACTS as i clealy saw. Judging by the look of hate i saw on the faces of these teens, it is clear they are very aware of what they were doing. Some times the police have use tactics which seem cruel and unlawful, but just think about the VICTIMS and how much they have suffered! And how getting information from these youths is vital for saving lives!
2. Laws and penalties

What did it ever have to do about the age?
3. Sorry, but I cannot disagree more

Children who commit adult crimes -- especially those involving depraved indifference to human life -- should be treated as adults. What's broken in them cannot be fixed. Mollycoddling them is only going to increase their psychotic natures. They're just bad seeds. Lock them up and throw away the key. Let's focus on children that can actually be helped and turned into decent, productive adults. News flash: Criminal sociopathic children grow up to be criminal sociopathic adults. Their role models are violent terrorist jihadists. Forget kid gloves. These psychotic minors need a gulag, not a social worker.
