He only served a very short sentence in prison juvenile detention (because he was tried as a juvenile, they could only keep him locked up until he was 21). He was released in 2007. "11-year-old Golden (boy in the pic) and 13-year-old Mitchell Johnson shocked the state of Arkansas and the U.S. when they became some of the nation’s youngest school shooters.
"They set off a fire alarm before gunning down five people in Westside Middle School in Jonesboro.
"They killed four young girls: Paige Herring, Stephanie Johnson, Brittney Varner and Natalie Brooks, and 32-year-old Shannon Wright, a teacher." ⦿ In America Murder is illegal.
⦿ Attempting to murder another human being is illegal.
⦿ A felon possessing, attempting to purchase, or in any way owning a firearm is presently illegal.
⦿ Shooting people indiscriminately is already illegal.
⦿ Using firearms in a criminal manner is already illegal.
Your unfortunate, sad as they are, examples of unusual & criminal behavior are again absolutely no reason why Americans should or could be expected to relinquish their Unalienable Right to Keep & Bear Arms, the guns they presently depend upon to defend themselves & their loved ones.
Americans use firearms anywhere from 500,000 to upwards of 4,000,000 times a year to defend themselves, their loved ones, their friends, & their property.
New, more restrictive laws will, as always, only affect honest people, the law-abiding American Citizens who chose to have firearms to defend their lives, or the lives of their loved ones & friends.........they are the only ones who are ever affected by gun laws, for we all know criminals will never be affected by those same laws, because criminals by nature never obey the law. The trade-off isn't worth it, & never will be.
So, as long as violent criminals exist, America will depend on guns to be used specifically for self-defense against violent crime, as well as other legal purposes.
The lawmakers can't defend good people by writing yet more ineffective gun laws, & law enforcement can't be everywhere to enforce the law, new or existing, when precious moments count. Americans will always have the responsibility to remain their own first-responders when their life, the lives of their loved ones & their friends are in desperate danger.
