My mom used to work with children with behavior problems and couldn't be included in classrooms. I'm sure she saw a lot of violence from the children, as it was apparent when she came home every day with bruises.
But I don't think sending these children to prison is going to straighten them out. In fact, it may make things worse. Depending on the abilities of the child, I don't think shutting them in a cold prison will do much for their already hightened senses. But what do I know.
In today's world, as RUGreek pointed out, we have life-like violent video games and movies and so forth. In fact when he was a child, my brother used to draw pictures of guys with big guns shooting other people. He turned out fine.
Yes, I think the drawing should have been given attention, but to send the kids to prison over it? Seems a little much.
