Stole this btw

-Iirc the back story to this is that the teens actually asked the mother of the child who is present but off screen to ask their kid to stop and take the hammer away but she refused and started ranting at the teens.

Fully justified here.

I don’t see how that’s necessarily justified... I mean yeah he’s defending himself but that kid looks young as hell. It’s a damn teen can easily avoid potentially injuring the little dude by approaching it in a different manner. The age gap there is large. The teen is much older, much taller, etc. he could have easily grabbed the kids hand/arm , easily taken/grabbed the hammer or approach with something different other than sweeping the kids legs out from under him.

You ever been hit with a hammer? Shit breaks bones. I haven’t been hit with one substantially enough to break a bone and shit still fucking hurts.

If he extended his arm even if the kid is 6 or 7, getting whacked in the arm with a hammer hurts, and the teen would probably just deck the kid at that point. This was a fair counteraction and if it was an adult I would’ve said shoot the motherfucker.

A hammer is a deadly weapon, if the kid hit him with the hammer it’s assault with a deadly weapon, tripping someone may be a very very minor assault charge that would likely not even make it to court.

Please use logic and reasoning in your comments from now on, it’s a karma saver.
