Loophole?
The law seems like such a fucking biased-ASS!!!!
I think Prosecuting a minor for their personal behaviors conflicts with the same reasons the law deems them incompetent to make decisions.
This is not a case of ignorance of the law. This could by definition by other aspects of the the law regarding mental disorder, be placed in the same category. Since the law is categorizing minors as being unable to make decisions for themselves then they could thus be classifies as mentally retarded, and need of counseling.
comparison in point;
I had an adult friend that was not able to be "let loose" on his own because he was diagnosed as mentally incompetent and not able to make lifetime decisions for himself so he was "taken care of" by the state. Eventually they let him be independent.
This to me has a comparison to a child deemed incompetent to take care of themselves until a parent/ guardian deems them capable of doing so. So why is 18 the magic number? people develop at different rates.
And don't tell me mental disorder is no comparison to inexperience to life. We all mentally develop as we get older, so we start off comparable to a retard and our minds develop and grow as we take in experience and knowledge. So on a lighter note young adults make stupid decisions, like robbing a convenient store, because their minds don't fathom what they will get if they put 2 and 2 together (aka. didn't think of the TV camera aimed at their sweet faces) due to of lack of brain power.
Try holding an argument with an intellectual, you will look like a moron every time.
Soooo...I'd like to know what Zagg thinks about this, or any lawyers fapping on this site.
