[QUOTE="Walleye Slayer, post: 419675, member: 639"] Gonna play a bit of Devils advocate here. Maybe I missed something in the documentary. Why did he approach them in the first place? Why were the Young people not also charged with assault on some level? Where is the video of him hitting first? you hear them say he did but did he? even the young people couldn't say for sure that he did or didn't in some of their statements. Even if he did hit first when five people come at you are you not allowed to defend yourself at that point. (I wouldn't have pulled a knife I would have tried to punch my way out and took my beating accordingly.) Lots of holes for me. Bad decisions on all parties all the way around. If he could of walked away he probably should have but he made decisions and so did the younger people that kept engaging with him. They have responsibility in this also. The young people could have walked away to help diffuse the situation but they didn't. My personal opinion is all parties should have been charged with some level of something. I think if he takes it upon himself to go to the cops and turn himself in he doesn't get convicted at the level he did. It would be a lesser charge of some sort, but panic and fear make people do stupid stuff I don't feel like that documentary told the entire story. They relied on that video to tell the story they wanted people to hear. [/QUOTE]
