This thread has gone on for 12 pages...and for what? Has anyone stopped to try to look at the other side of things? From where I sit there are primarily 2 groups of people that are concerned with this issue. One group is the "These 6 kids beat up another kid! Why should they be released for that". The other group is the "Yes, these kids beat up and they should be punished for that. The punishment should also fit the crime". Those in the first group seem to be treating this as a single event while those in the other are treating it as a culmination of things.
Then you have the idiots that just want people to get out of jail and not be punished. I think that group is small compared to the other two.
Bottom Line: try to take the other person's view of things.
