The cop need more range time. That could have saved the taxpayers a lot of money.

Wrong question. Americans are guaranteed the right to bear arms per the Constitution. No age requirements that I’ve seen.

I have a problem with any 14 year old carrying a handgun just as I have a problem with any 14 year old driving a car or working on a production line in a manufacturing plant or drinking alcohol.............

And it ain't a "Constitutional" thing............

St. Louis is a hellhole like Detroit, Philly, LA, and everywhere Demonicrats spawn. Sounds like Dotson is a Demonicrat stooge himself. Of course the St. Louis Post-Dispatch is a leftist rag.

Where this happened, Walnut Park, is one the most violent neighborhoods in all of St. Louis. There are vacant houses with community guns everywhere.

Most of these guns are straw purchases or stolen out of people’s cars or houses.

Let it be so. Enough pretense. If a fight is coming, then let it be so and be done, once and for all.

It’s Walnut Park, there is nothing there to burn or loot.

Okay, okay It was wishful commenting...

He was a good kid. Never meant to hurt nobody. Changing his life around. Wanted to go to college.

Always helped his gramma carry the groceries and was thinking about going to barber school.

We need more “gun safety” laws to make sure 14 year old boys can’t just buy guns over the internet any more. Or something.

He was planning to sell the cars he stole for his college fund - pretty entrepeneurial for a 14 year old kid. But The Man ruined everything.

You’ve got to be at least 18 to apply for a concealed carry permit in Missouri. One of the reasons for the law, like it or not, is that kids aren’t considered capable of carrying guns responsibly: QED, this. But it wouldn’t matter if he were 14, 24 or 44.

What's a 14 year old "boy" doing with a semi-automatic handgun in the first place?

What a silly question!
Given the opportunity, shooting cops, of course.

It's a BLM thing.
