    He does need mental health care, but he also needs punishment for taking the lives of 4 people. There is no way at 15, someone is unaware that killing 4 people is bad, and should be redeemed of any wrongdoing. Nope. At that age in the U.S., you already have a permit to drive. I agree he needs major help, but he shouldn't get to stay in a psych unit for the murder of 4 people. He knowingly and brutally stole the most valuable thing they had, their only chance at life. There must be consequences.

    Everyone seems to have a different opinion on what freedom of speech is. To be clear, the first amendment is: > "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." I am of the opinion that you can say nearly anything you want (given that it isn't a threat to other's safety) but that does not absolve you of the social consequences. The government can't arrest you for calling someone a slur or being a nazi, but another person can and will knock you the fuck out for it :)
