British Teenage Girl Fined for Kicking Attacker While Down

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

Oh, I'll play. What you've overlooked in your righteous anger is that as frightened or as angry as she was she did continue administering the beating/kicking well after the guy was quite clearly not going to crawl back up (clear to other witnesses). That's sort of where the line between justified force crosses into needless violence. Once the guy is obviously not going to crawl back up without the help of an ambulance crew there's not much need for kicking him out of self defense...

Oh, because you Brits have to be so civil! Real smart eh?

He's Dutch, that other mystical place called 'not-USA' ;)

We can be civil after both of his arms are broken.

This girl wouldn't be arrested in Texas

And I am ok with that

Of course Texans in general do not tolerate barbarity, of course we are not above the contradiction of using our own barbarity to quash those whom wish to upset our civil society.

America is worse than Britain though. A supermarket was fined tens of thousands of dollars for not being able to have a child running loose in a store uncontrolled which injured a customer. Even though it was that customers child!
