I find it disgraceful in country that touts civil rights for it's citizens, and delivers little, that something like this can so casually be dismissed. But police brutality, even if it is just low wage rent-a-cops in a juvenile facility, must face justice for causing a death.

Read the article, it's upsetting. Not just because a boy died a senseless death at the hands of brutal people who ought to know better, but because the acts they committed have been forgiven.

Children die on the streets here every day by senseless violence. But when a child is placed in the hands of the state correctional system we don't expect them to end up dead at the hands of the people assigned to watch over them. At the very least what these prison guards did is manslaughter. How bold they were as the camera rolled, it took seven of them to kill a young boy. At the very least they deserve a firing squad. There is no justice in what happened.

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
