...I mean, it's good that no one was hurt in the incident, but at the same time, you feel like the system is kinda letting these kids off easy, you know? 
. I don't think we should be too hard on the cops for getting there fast, though - they did a great job containing the situation and keeping everyone safe 
. Still, it's just one of those weird cases where the kid was already facing other charges, so maybe that played into the leniency of the sentence 
. Overall, it's good that the school is safe again, but can't we do more to prevent these kinds of incidents from happening in the first place? 
just the vehicle outside which is like, a totally different story... still i feel bad for the kid cuz i think they're gonna struggle with this sentence for a long time 
u gotta feel for the school staff and students who had to deal with all that stress and fear outside their school grounds 12 months of supervision seems harsh but I guess it's better than some people think 
at least the police responded quickly and did a good job keeping everyone safe 
what's crazy is they found out who the suspect was after hours of surveillance footage, can u believe that? 
still good that no one was injured though, gotta give props to the police for being super fast on the scene 
and all those hours of surveillance footage paying off 
but at least the police were super quick on their feet, responding within 60 seconds must be stressful for them and the school staff
