Too far?

I firmly believe that criminals get what they have coming & should expect worse. Is a 9 year old even menatally able to be a criminal?

LORAIN -- A 9-year-old boy was arrested at gunpoint and handcuffed Saturday because he was waving a toy gun over his head while seated on a bench outside a store, according to a Lorain police report.

His mother, Tamyka Saunders of Sheffield Lake, said her son, Thomas Clark Jr., told Lorain police when they approached him outside a Broadway business that the gun was a toy. An officer aimed his weapon at the boy's head, ordered him to the ground, handcuffed him and arrested him for juvenile delinquency by reason of inducing panic, according to the police report.

thats way too much considering it was a fuckign TOY!!!!!!!!!!! and i think they can to an extent because at that age they do have a basic understanding of right and wrong(or should at least be taught some morals at that age) although they are still developing their mind and therefore do not have afull understanding so they are not full on criminals. but they should know some right and wrong.

There has to be more to the story, doesn't there? Still, one might expect people in authority not to walk around with their head up their ass.

Oh yeah, couldn't have been profiling, that just doesn't happen.
