This goes from "It's fun to knock the fat kid about" to "I want my Mummy"! Good on Casey. Interesting that a girl intervened to calm everything down.
The fact that Casey got the punishment for defending himself says a lot about the way Western society is going. If this had been an armed confrontation between adults and Casey had dealt with the agression and walked away (which is what he did) would US law have convicted him of anything? Perhaps our US contributors could comment? I'm genuinely interested.
