11 year-old girl charged for throwing a toy gun at her dad. Really?

I wonder if the dad hid in a locked bathroom with his daughter beating on the door while he called the police. Dad is a complete wuss that represents the sensitive, civilized ,modern whipped bitch….

If convicted, wouldn’t that make her a prohibited person–and about as perfect a case as possible for challenging Lautenberg? Assuming it’s still in effect when the girl grows up.

95% chance the article has all the facts completely wrong.

I agree. this doesn’t pass the smell test. Why would Dad report an 11-year-old to the cops for what was essentially a temper tantrum? Or is she dangerously psychotic?
Like Goofy sez, “Sump’m wrong, here!”

99% chance they’re at least missing something important.
It’s interesting that the article doesn’t say who actually called the cops, or why – that’s the big question here. Once the cops showed up, since Dad was bleeding, in most states they are required by law to charge the “assailant.” Unfortunately, due to the frequency in the past with which LEO’s would refuse to arrest people in true domestic assaults, they are allowed no discretion. If they don’t arrest someone – even an 11 year old girl – they can lose their job, and maybe go to jail.
I hate zero-
intelligencetolerance laws and policies. They inevitably lead to stupid and nonsensical situations like this. But they are usually enacted in the first place as a response to frequent abuses of discretion.I’m surprised the prosecutor was willing to go forward with this. Hopefully, the judge will have some common sense.

Get fuckng real, Jake. Common sense ain’t all that common.

5 to 1 Dad went to the ER for a stitch or two and the ER personnel brought in the law. That said, my first thought was actually ‘… and Lord help the Dad if he gave her a spanking for it!’
This stupidity was brought to you by the bleeding hearts who misread the scripture that says “Spare the rod, spoil the child.” Change two words and the real intent becomes clear: ‘Spare the refrigerator, spoil the milk.’ I, for one, don’t want spoiled milk on my Post Toasties and I don’t want to sit in the next booth from a spoiled brat throwing his around the restaurant while Mommy ineffectively threatens Junior with a time out if he doesn’t behave.
Grumble, grumble.
