How long would you let someone try to kill you before you shot them?
I wouldn't have gotten into a fight with the kid.
I like to think I wouldn't either but 17 year old boys sometimes take
that option away from you.
Well, we have kids of all ages, including high school kids, in our
immediate area. We have white kids, black kids, oriental kids, and
latino kids in our little area, and they all have lots of friends, so I
am used to seeing all manner of kids just about every day around here,
especially after school. In fact, there are "pickup" softball or
football or soccer games most afternoons in decent weather on a big
empty lot not far from our house. I've also "hired" the older high
school boys to do miscellaneous yard chores for us. I doubt the Martin
kid and I would have exchanged anything more than a nod or a hello. A
kid carrying a soft drink and a snack wouldn't get a second glance from me.
