actually the will and have put dogs on trial for murder, that's how they get put down, and yes I see what ur saying but just b/c you are young doesn't mean you should be able to escape the most extreme effects of your actions, if some 15yr old gangsta wannabe came up in broad daylight and shot your parents, or your sibling, or your girlfriend/fiance/wife, how would you feel about it, chances are the lifestyle and the actions have been romanticized for him, thinking he's going to get respect and women by doing something like that, but he knows exactly what he was doing and what it meant, now are you saying you wouldn't want to try him as an adult just b/c he's 15, if it was accidental I could understand, but w/ full knowledge of the consequences of his actions and the mental capacity to understand it, that's usually what they use to determine if they should try someone as a minor or an adult
