The commenter also tried to justify it by saying kids have so much violent
energy that is suppressed, all young boys are time bombs. I think that was
also directed by the race of the children, which was black. That's BS.
Children may have a level of cruelty based on immaturity, but disregard for
life like that has to be observed or taught. I have no idea if these kids
come from a violent home or were abused, or if domestic abuse was present.
That is not behavior anyone I ever grew up with ever displayed.
