they said it was a "family heirloom" so it sounds like he just grabbed the most dangerous thing he could find.

Its making me increasingly cynical towards law and order. Its very sick that they would send a man to jail for something like this. I hope one day the judge who sentenced him gets into a dangerous situation and noone saves him, they just stand there and watch.

Then hopefully he'll realise that he's helped scare away potential heroes.

Something is very wrong.

You could blame the liberal lawyers and for silly shit like this. They make a gay law and the police have no choice but to enforce it.

Back in the 70's, if a kid got out of line, he was slapped around by the police, then driven home where once again, the kid would get slapped around by his father. Today, the police have to be careful of video cameras.

I don't think he will get that sentence, at least if he has a good enough lawyer

lol Im glad cops dont slap people around - My father never slapped me around and I turned out okay (minus my childish behaviour on the internet)

...I was talking about the fact that you can get in trouble defending yourself or saving others when you should be considered heroic for trying to help yourself and others from being harmed.

I agree, people get way too literal in the law sometimes.
