Bully gets stabbed, ruled self-defence.

The bullies deserved to get their butts kicked, but a knife was too much. As big a pricks as the provokers were, I'm sure that they didn't plan to kill the kid. He should have maced the guy and not stabbed him. That would have put an end to it right there. You ever seen anyone maced? It's not pretty.

Did he have mace? What would you do when confronted with vioelnce against you? Its easy to say do this or do that to cause less harm, but how about those kids dont cause him harm so he has to defend himself. Anyone who is willing to harm others has everything coming to them that happens. It was their choice to put them selves in that spot not his. They could have chosen to not bother others and keep to themselves. Personal responisiblity.

I have been confronted with violence before by a group.  I fought back (and got my ass kicked) , but after that was left alone.  Normally bullies don't like it when you fight back.  I said that the guy could have gotten mace, because if he went to get a knife - it means that the kid took the time to think about what he was doing and that would have been a better alternative.  Now I agree that bullies deserve getting their teeth punched down their throats, but stabbing someone to death is never the right solution.  The original victim should have went to the school with his problem, and if they didn't do anything he should have went to the police.  If they didn't do anything, then mace in the eyes.

Being hit in the face with that seems worse than being stabbed to me.
