Familial politeness.
Louisiana authorities say a 7-year-old boy shot his aunt two times after she didn’t get him food.
Webster Parish Sheriff Gary Sexton says the child will not be charged with a crime.
He says Louisiana law states a child under the age of 10 cannot form intent, so they do not have the authority to file charges against the boy… even though he loaded and reloaded the gun during the incident.
The police think counseling may be called for. Y’think?
Aside:
Had the aunt been packing, she could have defended herself.

“Merchants of Death” 0
Little remembered now, in the 1920s and 1930s, the “merchants of death” theory was the notion that munitions manufacturers and banks had engineered World War I so as to sell arms. Indeed, the first couple of Leslie Charteris’s Saint novels used that theory as a background to their plots.
The origins of World War I were much more complex, far less coherent, and, frankly, much sillier than the reasons posited by the “merchants of death” theory. Nevertheless, as Solomon Jones points out as he recalls the death of Philandro Castile, the U. S. now has its own actual merchants of death.
