There’s been a push, such as by the Boston Celtics in MA, to up the age at which perps can be tried as adults to 21!

Not surprising. Certain organizations like pro sports have been plagued by their choices who way too many times are determined guilty of things from wife beaters to child molesters, and in some cases been directly tied into capital crime cases. And this is where society is trying like hell to create their childrens’ heroes and mentors.
Being able to be big, or swing a bat, or hit people like a freight train like in football or ice hockey, or any of the tasks that separate society from too many elite sports performers are not what I would say qualifies them to be the role model they are professing. And not enough thugs like Charles Barkley are out there saying they are not those people that kids should emulate. But as long as society is lowering themelves by receiving an education, whether street or school, with cominhg out the other side with undercooked brains accepting results that a dead person wouldn’t consider, we will be stuck with the loss of our future children as they grow up literally programmed for stupidity. And continuing to putting out fires we started. And they are less capable than we are as time takes its toll on the assembly line.
