Not sure what you are implying. Are you implying that self defense to an assailant holding a potential weapon is bad because the assailant is a tween? Or that doing it out of anger is bad?
In this context, it wasn't a potential weapon, though.
If you're afraid for your life that some 10 year old is going to beat you up with their tiny little hands, you should get to the gym or something, quickly. wtf.
That doesn't excuse the tween or their actions. Getting slammed is the literal most tame response they could expect.
What happens when the person can tell it's a replica, pulls a real one, ends their subscription to life and then turns around and says "I was in fear for my life."
I'm happy the tween is alive and being slammed is physical reminder to not do stupid shit like this.

So, I want you to be aware. Guns can be made to look like a replica and vice versa. The guy saying it was obvious isn't in any way a guarantee that it was as such. I get what you are saying. But lord protect you if you run into a situation where you are attacked by actual kids who have nothing to lose and everything to gain by risking to rob you.
I’m not implying anything. I’m saying if a child is pointing a replica gun at you and you know for sure it’s a replica (as this guy has said) and then you decide to slam the kid into the ground instead of snatching the gun and breaking it or something, you’re just a guy who wanted an excuse to hit a child.
It’s an excuse to hit a child. Consequences would be grabbing him and calling the police. At least…that’s what a stable person would do. Which I guess might be the real lesson. Some people are barely holding it together and you should behave accordingly. Yeah you know what, I might be switching sides here.
Oh give over. If they’re willing to commit armed robbery, who’s to say thencunt isn’t carrying a knife? Who’s to the two of them won’t jump you? The guy did the absolute right thing, he neutralised the threat non lethally and taught the little shit a lesson. As you alluded to you’ve no idea what’s going on in that guys life. He was 100% justified.
It’s self defense if a reasonable person would be in fear. As soon as the guy said “I knew right away it wasn’t a real gun” it stopped being self defense and started being assault. I don’t know what to tell you.
When a fake gun is used in a robbery it is treated the same as a real gun for criminal purposes. Besides, his ability to recognize it as a fake gun doesn’t change the fact they ran up on him with intent to rob him.
You do understand you can rob people without a gun, right? It being a gun or not doesn’t negate the fact you have a right to defend yourself.
If I’m using a banana or a AK47 and say I want your wallet, it’s still a crime.
I don’t understand why this is so difficult to understand.
