"Teen" or Gang Member?

We will probably never be told. That would be unfair. Teen charged after accidentally shooting friend at Deltona park

Though I should also point out that at 17, there is a fairly good chance he would be charged as an adult. Though maybe not in this Woke era.

Volusia Sheriff’s Office investigators determined the shooting happened when the victim and three other friends were sitting in the car at the nature park when the teen sitting in the rear passenger seat pulled a gun from his [pocket] and accidentally fired a shot through the front passenger seat and into the victim’s back.

Volusia County, Florida includes Daytona Beach and Port Orange. The southwestern portion of the county is about 20 miles north of Orlando, or about 30 miles from The Mouse™.

So not only does the shooter have access to an illegal firearm (17 is too young for a pistol, according to the law), he has no appreciation of gun safety. It is just a guess that he and his friends are up to no good, but I don't see that as a stretch.

So do we think that the punishment will fit the crime, or will some bit of Social Justice be invoked to reduce the actual justice. Put another way, do you believe that the Left will want to see the current set of gun laws enforced, or will the be ignored in this case, while they clamor for more gun laws?

And if he is released, how long will it be before he shoots, or kills, someone and it is intentional?
