    Very silly story by a poorly informed reporter and thread responses are taking it at face value making it seem like there is really an injustice on the child.

    A seven year old cannot be legally held accountable due to his age. Its a bb gun, not a firearm.

    The most that can happen is Juv services will get involved. They'll put pressure by various means on the parents to "persuade" them to make the kid better (or else), but even then it can only go so far. This ain't socialist Europe thank goodness.

    In PRNJ, a BB gun IS a firearm.

    He's now about 12. He should be just about old enough to begin planning his mass shooting, and his parents have no doubt birthed a couple more eventual felons.

    Awww hell when I was a kid we used to have "BB gun wars"! No aiming above an opponents neck and the pump up pellet rifles could only be pumped once.
