Thread: Father severely maims bullies of his son

His boy was ganged up on, it wasn't a fair fight, he stood up for his boy, but he made the mistake of taking a weapon, he should have just beat the shit out of the ringleader, but to use a sword is just crazy, that's why he was jailed, if he just kicked his balls for fucking with his son, he wouldn't have went to jail, in my opinion anyway.

What I can absolutely guarantee 100%, is that those boys who ganged up on his son will think twice before picking on a boy on his own again, of that there can be no doubt.
Had those boys' fathers, if they were in the picture, had whooped their arse when they were growing up, this whole event would never have taken place at all, such a shame.

I believe this is a man who can sit in prison with a smile on his face, he may have went overboard, a wee bit, but he stood up for his son who turned to him for help, for that he can be very proud, and see out his sentence with his chin up, he's a great father.

With or without a weapon this man would have been jailed and rightly so. He was standing up for his son and I can respect that but we simply can't allow grown men or women to go around beating up kids, weapon or no weapon.

Without the sword though, his sentence would have been shorter I think.

It's definitely wrong to attack a child, completely out of the blue, but a 14 year old who has just attacked your son after outnumbering him like a coward with his equally cowardice friends? No, he needs his arse kicked, and he needs to learn that in the real world, if you gang up on someone, they might know someone bigger who can "gang up" back, and these boys learned their lesson.
It's pretty obvious to me that those boys were not disciplined properly in the first place, or they wouldn't have acted they way they did, bet they're from single mother homes.

If it was me, I'd have taken my son back round with a bloody big stick and watch as he beat the shit out of as many as he could, I'd just be there to ensure no-one gets too badly injured, and that it stays as "fair" as possible, but I wouldn't take a sword to them, that's insane, but I understand the anger.

theres a story from round our way where the father went round the house of the boy who was bullying his son with a baseball bat and threatened to kneecap the father if it carried on. Apparently the bullys father had words with his son and there was no more bullying. The two kids became freinds by all accounts without bullying.

This is an effective method also, force the other father to get his act together. It would be very difficult to do nothing.

Look folks, I don't like bullying either but it is a fact of life. It always has been and it always will be.

It happens in politics and business as well. The father should have instructed his kid to fight back because that is the only way to deal with bullies. Having a parent deal with bullies is just another reason for the bullies to tease.

This is true, especially if it was just a one-on-one fight originally.

I agree with 6ame, using a weapon on a teenage boy was overboard, couldn't he have just beat his arse just as easily?

Several other effective methods were mentioned, go back with your own son and watch as he takes a bat/hammer/brick to the other boy, but make sure it doesnt go too far (weapons are fair play since the other boy didnt fight faurly either). Beat up the father of the other kid, or threaten to beat him up.

I can totally understand the motivation behind what this guy did, he just went about it the wrong way. If he was going to deal with it himself he needed to go after the boy's father, not the boy himself, and he definately shouldnt have been using a weapon, especially not a bladed weapon, and especially not a bladed weapon as lethal as samurai swords usually are.

Some limited measures were necessary to be undertaken as much as a preventative measure as a retaliatory one, but by engaging in overkill has proven counterproductive, because now that boy has no protector for a number of years should such a similar situation arise again.

What about striving to show some measure of morality and inner strength by not taking the law into your own hands- ?

Involve the police instead. That is what they are there for.

If you go around slashing at children with swords, or stand by watching as your son beats another with a brick, you are committing a serious crime, setting a horrible example for kids, and you deserve to go to jail for it.

Just my opinion.

I eat bullies for breakfast but that man stepped over line when he got a samurai sword.

I was rarely bullied in school but even I can see why that man did what he did!
I'm not saying it's right but it was human!

Calling the police on children is one of the downfalls of modern schools.

No, the police are not there to deal with children who are bullies, criminalizing children should not be an option unless there is serious injury.

Since you're female though I would expect such an answer. Men typically would not call the police on a child. Then again, men typically don't expect others to solve their problems for them the way women do.

Exactly, that's why feminists hate us so damn much!

Call the police on yourself then. There's a radical idea! If you think there's a good chance you're going to commit bodily harm against someone else for assaulting your child, involve the cops for you- to keep you from doing something extremely stupid. If you haven't got the self-control to put the brakes on yourself (some of us don't), let someone else do it for you.

When my son as 10 years old he tossed a piece of garbage into a man's yard and was clearly wrong to have done so. What he didn't know is that he was observed doing this by the man who owned the house/yard, and the man was emotionally unstable. He came out of the house, grabbed my son around the neck and proceeded to choke him. My son got away, and when he got home and told me what happened and I observed the bruises on his neck, I nearly went ballistic. My boyfriend grabbed a baseball bat and I had to plead with him to get the baseball bat away and keep him from going down there to assault the guy.

I called the police instead. Granted, they didn't seem too damn interested in getting involved at first. It took a lot of pressuring from me to get them to actually go to the house and talk to the guy. Five minutes later, the police came back to tell me they couldn't locate him. I was furious! I let the officers know that I expected a legitimate investigation and would be going over their heads if one was not conducted. The officers left again, and what do you know...they found the guy and after interviewing him and documenting the bruises on my son's neck, they charged the man with assault.

There was an article in the local paper about the while incident the next day.

You can be wary of involving the police...you can even be dissatisfied with the way things are handled (like I was in the beginning) but you have the right to go straight to the top to file a complaint against the officer(s) handling the call if you deem it necessary (as I threatened to do.) Sometimes the extra nudge does wonders.

It is not advisable to take the law into your own hands. Had my boyfriend (or I) gone over and beat the man with a baseball bat, you can bet the story would have still made the local paper, only added to that would have been jail time for us and possible foster care for my children.
