News 13 is not identifying him because of his age.
That seems pretty misplaced. Wouldn't you want to know if a kid this twisted was living near you and your children?

A seriously evil boy who'll be very useful to the authorities as he grows and finds more ways to scare and hurt people. They'll point to him and say how awful it is that just anyone can own guns, even BB guns.
We'll point to him and say how awful it is that NOT just anyone can own guns, because he's the face of Generation Millennium..

I am guessing based on the fact that it was 3:30 AM that he has great parents who are top notch in the parent filed so it must be some other thing like the evil influence of the BB gun that made him do it. . . .

I suspect that Orlando residents have plenty of dangerous criminals around who give them plenty to worry about without getting excited over a little kid with a BB gun.

But for those who really are that worried, I note that the article gives the street address of the Walgreens. Given the age of the "gun"man and the hour, it's safe to say that he didn't drive or take the bus to get there.

Frankly, if I were paranoid about crim an lived someplace where they had Walgreens, I'd be more worried that this article basically tells real criminals "Walgreens is easy pickings."

I used to sneak out of the house in the middle of the night, usually with a gun, but I just wandered in the woods instead of robbing local stores. What was wrong with me?

I think before passing judgment on this kid we should wait a few years and see what his instructors at the police academy have to say about him.

Yeah, but then they'd have to suggest the Only Ones could even do anything, then.

As a child in the city, I used to carry a gun round the house all the time. My kids always have one within reach. I'm talking 45s etc. Same thing wrong with me as with Kent I guess -s-
