A video that went viral this week on social media has caused an uproar after a boy confessed to his teacher that "when he grows up, he wants to be a murderer."
The child, about seven years old, told his teacher with complete certainty and conviction that the first time he saw a murderer act, he saw himself.
"I like dead people. I would like to be an assassin and kill everyone but my family because they haven't done anything to me," he expressed frankly.
The teacher, astonished by the confession, asks him: "What if it were me?" The boy replied with a smile: "No, I wouldn't kill my teacher."
Finally, the child told his teacher that this is the first time he had revealed his strongest desire.
The recording was released and handed over to U.S. authorities, according to Noticia y Punto.
"Is the problem guns or society, education, empty homes? The world is sick and making the little ones in our homes sick," columnist Emmanuel Rincón questioned on Twitter when posting the video.
Un niño de aproximadamente 7 años dice que quiere ser un asesino cuando crezca y matar a todo el mundo.

Recent school shootings in the United States have set off alarms across the country, while White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre revealed on Tuesday that President Joe Biden does not support "hardening schools" against possible attacks.
"I know there have been conversations about hardening schools, that's not something he believes in," Jean-Pierre told reporters at a White House press conference. "He believes we should be able to give teachers the resources so they can do their job."
The last recorded massacre was last Tuesday when Salvador Ramos, 18, killed 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.
