I feel sorry for him. He’s been manipulated by adults to be susceptible to this fanaticism. Potentially he could have rough teenage years, a criminal record, and maybe relatives going to prison.
There but for the grace of God go any of us
His parents should be investigate for child abuse.
I was too busy playing with toys at 12 years old. I didn’t even know what racism was or that it was somehow “wrong” to not be white. Was just too busy climbing trees and making friends with everyone completely oblivious to the negativity of the world.
To be going around rioting and spreading hate at that age you’ve really got to hold the parents responsible. There’s just no way he decided to choose racism over toys or video games, his parents have to be the ones who told him to be evil and destroy things.
It’s sad that this hateful shit is rubbing off on children. A criminal before your balls have even dropped is pathetic.
How many generations has his family been in the UK. Just asking a question.
I hope social services will get involved and help this kid find a “normal path” in his life. He has been clearly let down by adults to become part of such stupid mob
A 12 yr old getting involved isn’t exactly just on the kid though is it? Sadly it’s a necessary intervention though.
I just hope they help him rehabilitate rather than be too punitive here.
My son is 12. I banned him from using his iPad for 1 month because he used “bro” in his comments on social media.
So no access to the internet for 1 month (he doesn’t have a phone).
I told him that if the words had been “cuzzy” then the ban would be for much longer….. actions have consequences…..
Disgraceful tbh. Don’t think we should be convicting 12 year old kids for kicking windows and throwing rocks.
Get social round and look at his home life don’t criminalise him. Very big chance this will fuck his life up forever. Actually sickening imo.
