During their searches, officers seized a rifle, several sawed-off shotguns, ammunition, three replica handguns, as well as $104,000 worth of metamphetamine and $33,000 worth of fentanyl.

Now, two 14-year-olds and one 13-year-old have been jointly charged with three counts of possession of a loaded gun, three counts of careless storage of a gun, two counts of unauthorized possession of a restricted weapon and two counts of drug possession for the purpose of trafficking, among other charges.

It's amazing what our public education system is teaching the youth of today. They are being taught to shorten the barrels and stocks of long guns, I guess so they can be hidden out of view under clothing. They are picking up replica handguns, from who knows where. Isn't it being explain to them that such items are prohibited weapons. What is wrong with their teacher didn't they explain that they shouldn't be acquire such items, that they are illegal to have in their possession. It would seem that our whole public education system is going to hell in a handbag. It should be better educating our kids, about these matter. How are they going to grow up and become responsible citizen, if they are not being instructed in what that means?

It's been happening for a long time it's rare to see the quantity of drugs tho. Seen that the youngest in BC just overdosed at the age of 12.

I could get anything I wanted at the age of 16 some of my friends even younger.

Heck plenty of parents get high with their 14 or 15 olds and their friends.

As the Left would say they are just misunderstood and don't know right from wrong.

BS, kid's know right from wrong and consequences when they are as young as 10.

I truly believe, that at that age you are a product of your environment. Granted, Not always. If you see your ‘significant authoritative figure ‘ sitting around making ‘ deals ‘ all day, you believe that’s normal .

Exactly, it starts at home not in school.

Don't agree, I had friends on both sides of the tracks when I was growing up. I grew up with kid's who came from horrible homes and turned out great and kid's who came from great homes who became hard core criminals.

I believe Fishcan clarified his statement with "granted, not always"? Of course GW, there are exceptions to any situation, but you're not going to make a blanket statement like this without rebuttal of some kind. The story MP posted is about children. These children are very susceptible to things they learn from their environment and authorative figures around them Their brain hasn't had a chance to decide for themselves what is wrong or right, good or bad. Regardless what side of the tracks these kids live on, they are the product of their environment, pure and simple.

My grandfather was a Hamilton copper (retired in 1974), and before I went to university he talked me out of applying to Hamilton Police Service. Gone are the days of when you heard of a crime in your area and you immediately had a short list of suspects that were involved or knew who was involved. Next shift you and your partner would take a couple of these guys down a dark alley, or for a drive and have a 'chat' with them and next thing you know you have your guy. Back then no one cared because if you were not involved in criminal activity you were not on the radar.

Back then you could scare kids straight. No hand holding no coddling - if you continue to do this and this is what will happen to you. Now we have kids that have been playing the victim card their whole criminal career and playing the system to their advantage. Our present system is such a disgrace IMHO. Yet again.,.......another Canadian failure.

Still don't agree I would say it is reverse.

GW
It really doesn’t matter what the subject is ( gangs/guns), we are all products of our experiences and environments.

At its simplest, children that are raised in households where there’s alcoholism, or abuse. Tend to fall into the same. First Nations and people that grow up on reserves?

The UK. Where a caste system is still very much alive. And it is extremely difficult, for people change classes.

There are certainly those who are born on the wrong side of the tracks, who want nothing to do with their parents lives, and do all they can to break the cycle. But, not only is that the exception, and difficult to begin with, depending on the topic, there are barriers.

Notice that the rivet is still there on the SKS mag, ha ha ha.

That pump is going to hurt to shoot.

150 grand worth of drugs....gotta be an older sibling or parent figure letting these kids do their dealings thinking young kids are less likely to get caught.


I can remember being in gr 8 and starting high school and kids my age dealing drugs for older brothers or even their dad.

These kids see how much easy money can be made, Get greedy and usually end up in jail or killed.


My best friend growing up was caught in college with 100 grand worth of Ecstasy and MDMA. Came from a wealthy farming family. He didn't do any jail time as his parents spent a fortune in lawyers. I thought he was done for.
