My claim
Yes, teens who committed violent crimes should be tried in adult court

Evidence #1
"If I knew somebody who hurt or killed someone I loved, I would want him or her to experience the worst possible punishment

It matters because
They are sharing their opinion on the topic

Evidence #2
"Youths who commit crimes are criminals; they are walking our streets, living as our neighbors, and in many instances committing additional crimes."

It matters because
It says that there are criminals everywhere

Evidence #3
"Adolescents are old enough to understand the difference between right and wrong."

IT MATTERS BECAUSE

Evidence #4
"Children who commit crimes, even the ones who commit the most unforgivable of crimes, can be rehabilitated and become responsible adults."

It matters because
When they are in jail they can be responsible adults
