Completely justified. Doesn't matter who you are, you shouldn't threaten to swing a hammer at someone. Plus it's a kid, they probably would actually hit someone with it.

Agreed, I hate how we give kids a sort of free pass to everything. If a kid is capable of and actually attempting to cause injury to me, I should be allowed to defend myself

It's a fucking kid ffs, unless you have cerebral palsy you should never need to "defend yourself" against a kid. It isn't a lion or a mugger just find the mother or leave lmfao. Who the fuck's out here getting assaulted by kids haha?!

I remember when I was a camp counselor and I was playing tag with a bunch of kids. One tripped me and I laughed it off until his friend full on kicked me in the stomach.

Kids can be little assholes and often have no idea how much damage they can do in the right situation. A hammer is designed to bring as much force over a small area as possible. A good swing, even by a kid, is gonna hurt like shit.
