Now, Trump wants to charge 14-year-olds as criminals

No, it doesn't but it doesn't mean "jail". Usually what is done is "rehabilitation within the Juvenile Justice system". Totally different to what Trump is suggesting.
In some cases it does mean jail depending on the crime breaking into a store shouldn’t necessarily mean jail time committing murder while carjacking someone probably should. This is why you don’t have a one size fits all system which those with basic common sense already know.
 
Yes, but they also realize that teens can be more easily influenced than adults. Those Adult gang leaders should suffer bigger consequences but not the influenced teens.

In fact, let me ask you a question, "if Trump is found guilty of abusing his power and doing something violent and illegal, and gets to suffer the consequences of it, should the Trump supporters get the same fate for following him and doing as told?

But you can't get the kids to rat on the adults because the kids know they can't get punished fully for the crimes they committed.

How are you equating juvenile murders and gangbangers with Trump supporters?

FFS people, learn the difference between "jail" and "prison".
 
Until any of you MAGATS advocate for Trump's removal and imprisonment for the 34 felonies he was convicted of, STFU talking about trying 14 year olds as adults.

There were no murders that occurred here on this event that generated Trump's statement, meaning your post is "general" in nature and not specific to the OP.

Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control. Local “youths” and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent Citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released. They are not afraid of Law Enforcement because they know nothing ever happens to them, but it’s going to happen now! The Law in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these “minors” as adults, and lock them up for a long time, starting at age 14. The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs. Washington, D.C., must be safe, clean, and beautiful for all Americans and, importantly, for the World to see. If D.C. doesn’t get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City, and run this City how it should be run, and put criminals on notice that they’re not going to get away with it anymore. Perhaps it should have been done a long time ago, then this incredible young man, and so many others, would not have had to go through the horrors of Violent Crime. If this continues, I am going to exert my powers, and FEDERALIZE this City. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

This suggests that not only will anyone that doesn't see (and agree) with Trump "or wants to complain" about his way of thinking, should be put in Jail, including minors.

If they are old enough to consent for a sex change they are old enough for prison.

There was also nothing about locking up people who disagree with Trump as you suggested in your OP. Trump was talking about teens committing violent crime so my post was very specific to what Trump was talking about where your part of your OP was the standard lying about something Trump said.
Your welcome have a nice day.

You are not using the full context of Trump's statement, meaning your post is BS.
 
Commit adult crimes do adult time.... don't act like these kids are stupid because they are not... they know they can get away with murder and they will also know when they can't and then maybe they will think twice....
Cases are not all the same. If its determined that it was cold blooded murder with evil intent, yes. But many 14 year olds don't have the understanding or control that an adult has or should have. There is not one age that all kids suddenly understand right from wrong and learn discipline and self control. So the law needs to accommodate for this and require thorough and deep psychiatric evaluation submittable as evidence.

You really don't understand that teens are not adults and therefore should not be prosecuted as adults as they legally are not supposed to understand what violence and crime means.

AI Overview

The question of whether to jail teens who commit violent acts is complex. While some argue for holding them accountable with incarceration, others emphasize the developmental differences between teens and adults, and the potential for rehabilitation within the juvenile justice system. Research suggests that incarceration can be detrimental to young people, potentially increasing the likelihood of future criminal behavior.

Do you believe that "creating" a bigger criminal in the future by jailing him as a teen, is going to make our country better?

So the death penalty solves that problem.
I agree.

It doesn't 'suggest' anything but punishment for criminals, there is nothing about slapping a minor in jail because they 'want to complain' about a way of thinking. You're a certifiable loon.

When you consider that the universal age of reason is 7 years of age, a fourteen year old should know the difference between right and wrong.
Committing crime then comes with penalties when caught. They deserve to serve time and that is what juvenile detention centers were created.
For crimes of murder teenagers must be held accountable to their actions not coddled.
A.I. say's, teenagers who commit crimes should be held accountable for their actions, as they are capable of understanding right from wrong. This accountability is important for justice and public safety, ensuring that they recognize the consequences of their behavior. As a result, they may face criminal charges and consequences similar to adults, depending on the severity of the crime.
