>They're at the age where you can't legally retaliate

I sincerely don't understand that. If a bunch of thugs attack you, how comes you don't have legal rights to retaliate to defend yourself? Why there age matter, especially if you can't say if they are 17 or already 18? Hell, even if you know for a fact they are 16? They still can damage, rape or kill you.

I think what you are saying is misinformation. Can you quote a law?

Without spending my morning digging through the state statutes — minors in general are granted special protections under the law.

If the encounter really got out of hand, how can he prove he was provoked? And not only that, but sufficiently provoked to warrant an adult striking a minor.

See where this is going? You can bet a judge and jury will have little sympathy for someone who has physically maimed a child. I wouldn’t expect his fellow inmates to look highly on such behavior, either.

The letter of the law isn’t all that matters

Make one little joke about a guy's post history and all of the insecure little shits come out of the woodwork.

You sound triggered jerkoff, nobody is rolling over. Fact is the odds we're against this guy.

All that happened was some words said and some shit thrown at them. Not fun but also better than ending up in the hospital, the morgue, jail, in a lawsuit, or even sitting in your house with a black eye.

He did the right thing by not engaging.

There's nothing but downsides to it. If you beat up a bunch of kids, you beat up kids. If you get beaten up, you got your ass kicked by a bunch of kids. Both scenarios because even though you're a grown ass adult, you've got a fragile ego that can't handle mean words.

You don't know WHY they're baiting you. Maybe one has a gun or a knife or there's a bunch of their friends down the block with baseball bats.

Hustle up and GTFO of there, you're not getting a check at the end of that fight. As long as no one gets hurt, who fucking cares?

If they grab you, then beat their asses, but that's not what happened here so shut your pie hole and go live your revenge fantasy somewhere else.
