Based on my personal opinion. I think after being stabbed once or twice, most people would back off. Since he had no time to react due to being stabbed very quickly, that is probably the reason the guy died.
I think if you had just been stabbed enough times to leave you dying on the floor...
I understand the lethal force, lethal danger thing. But I personally would say 12 stabs is excessive for any fight. One punch in the back of the head is a lot less likely to kill than 12 stabs.
I had actually meant a Google search before hiring him (I heard some employers do that now) but you're right, a conviction would make a huge deal of difference.
And you have in fact managed to sway me in the boy's favour here. I don't really know enough about the situation to judge.
And I...
I get what you mean about it crippling his future prospects, but a quick Google search will tell the employers everything about it anyway, regardless of what's on his CV. Perhaps we should just walk away from the case as, like you said, it will serve him well as a lesson, but personally I don't...
Ah, I'm getting confused between different types of knife then, I was going to say I was surprised a six-inch blade wasn't illegal.
Since it clearly wasn't his intention, maybe something less than jail time, just so the message given out isn't that he can get off free with it, is necessary...
I get your point about the negative impact and everything. I personally don't think lethal force should be used, unless you yourself are in lethal danger. From the story, the bully didn't have a weapon other than his fists. Obviously I wasn't there and there probably are factors that I can't...
That's a good point about the adrenaline, I admittedly didn't consider that. And was it a tiny blade, because, and I may be wrong in thinking this, but isn't a pocket knife like a pen knife? Because those have six-inch blades on, which I wouldn't class as a tiny blade.
I'm not saying he should...
Yeah, the bully probably deserved to have the crap out of him, but surely stabbing him 11 times is a bit much? I mean, I would have thought the first stab is self defence, because I don't think many bullies would keep going after being stabbed once. But the other ten stabs? That sounds like the...
So since I've recently got interested in Skyrim, I've decided to borrow Oblivion from a friend since I've never played an Elder Scrolls game before. Any suggestions of what I should do first?
EDIT: I'm not planning on getting Skyrim on launch simply because I can't afford it :(
Oh shit, I never clicked that the old man was him! That makes a hell of a lot more sense now.
And good point, I totally forgot about the lack of TARDIS.
